Judge Rules That Blago May Not Leave Country To Be On Reality Show

In yet another setback for former Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D-IL), U.S. District Court Judge James Zagel has just ruled that Blago is not allowed to travel to Costa Rica to appear on a Survivor-style reality show for celebrities.

Blago would have needed to this special permission to leave the country during a time when he is under indictment. The Chicago Sun-Times quotes the judge as saying: “I don’t think this defendant in all honesty … fully understands the position he finds himself in.”

Besides, this whole thing seemed pretty superfluous: Blago already starred on a really fun reality show.
