Former Illinois Representative Jesse Jackson Jr., once one of the most promising black politicians in the United States, reported to federal prison on Monday to begin serving a 2-1/2 year sentence for misusing campaign funds, according to a family spokeswoman.
Jackson, a former Democratic representative and the son of civil rights leader the Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr., entered a federal correctional facility in Butner, North Carolina, family spokeswoman Bunnie Jackson-Ransom said in a statement.
"I am happy to report that he is in good spirits, all things considered," said North Carolina Representative G.K. Butterfield, who accompanied Jackson to the prison, according to the statement.

Chicago will welcome him back with open arms when he is shock paroled in six months.
Just like they do for thousands of other couples each year, right?
“Jesse Jackson Jr., once one of the most promising black politicians in the United States”
The operative word here is “once.”
I hope this jackwagon cries himself to sleep every night.
They seem like they’re model parents, like Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton.
A family that preys together serves time together.
I’m sure all the networks had dozens of cameras there to record the event.
OH WAIT....
They ONLY do that if the perp is a Republican.
!
The whole Black Democrat Caucus ought to be accompanying him to prison... permanently.
In Democrat eyes, misusing campaign funds is a political crime, so JJJ is now a political prisoner. This will only add to his Democrat street cred.

According to this, Butner has low and medium security units and a medical facility. Notable inmates include Bernie Madoff and Jesse's predecessor Mel Reynolds. It isn't even a penitentiary; it has a fence but no walls. Compared to the Fed slammer in Florence, this place is a girl scout camp.
Incidentally, Mel Reynolds was convicted of bank fraud, statutory rape (of a 16 year old aide), kiddie porn and obstruction. He was pardoned by Bubba Clinton and word is that he now considers himself rehabilitated enough to run for his old office.
Bend over jesse... no soap on a rope for you!
