Details of Blago's call log
When Rahm Emanuel was a U.S. congressman, he called then-Gov. Rod Blagojevich about releasing a grant for a school in his district in summer 2006, around the time federal prosecutors claim Blagojevich got the idea to shake Emanuel down for a campaign fundraiser.
Calls were made to Blagojevich and his top aide, John Harris, by Rahm Emanuel, his then-chief of staff Elizabeth Smith, and his brother, Ari Emanuel, a Hollywood agent prosecutors claim Blagojevich targeted for a fundraiser.
