Closing arguments at Rod Blagojevich's corruption trial "took a sharp detour" as one of the former governor's lawyers "all but vowed to defy an order barring him from calling out the prosecution for failing to summon key witnesses to testify," the Chicago Tribune reports.
Said Sam Adam: "I'm willing to go to jail for this, your honor. I cannot follow your order on this."
The judge gave Adam and the rest of Blagojevich's legal team the night to think over how they wanted to proceed.
