Poshard Plans Debut Of Side Of Scandal Post SIUC Retirement
Former state official Glenn Poshard, amid a long career shadowed by the license for bribes case and the Scott Fowell racketeering trial, announces retirement from SIUC in July and says he will tell his side of the story. He faced scrutiny during the 1998 campaign involving Secretary of State George Ryan and alleged bribes tied to drivers licenses. Despite investigations finding no wrongdoing and ridicule from media, federal probes led to numerous indictments and convictions. Poshard cites duty to the university as his reason for silence and now seeks to reveal the truth.
