Million in campaign funds frozen in Ryan case
In Chicago, Gov George Ryan's lawyers agreed to place $1 million in escrow as prosecutors warn legal fees may exhaust the fund. Judge Rebecca Pallmeyer ordered the money held to preserve restitution if a ruling finds racketeering in the Citizens for Ryan probe. The dispute centers on remaining $500,000 for defense, with hearings set for June 27.
