Criminal Record | Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Rise and Fall in Politics @CriminalRecord_ | Uploaded April 2023 | Updated October 2024, 30 minutes ago.
Jesse Louis Jackson Jr. was a prominent American politician representing Illinois’s 2nd congressional district for over 17 years. However, his political career was marred by financial irregularities, including the misuse of campaign funds. It’s shocking to think that someone who was once entrusted with the responsibilities of public office could commit such crimes. But what could have driven Jackson to such unethical behaviour? Who knows.
On November 21, 2012, Jackson announced his resignation from Congress due to physical and mental health problems, including bipolar disorder and digestive problems. On February 8, 2013,
Jackson admitted to violating federal campaign law by using campaign funds to make personal purchases. On February 20, 2013, Jackson pled guilty to one count of wire and mail fraud.
On August 14, 2013, he was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison. On March 26, 2015, Jackson was released from prison.
