mercy housing is developing that. and they came in with also a very excellent plan, and the goal was to minimize the affordable housing subsidy the agency would have to provide. in this case they requested a subsidy of $186,000 per unit. just wrapping up, the team for the proposal is to local firms. solomon, court well, and santos press thought. mercy housing is a local housing developer that i am sure you are familiar with. -- sanots presscott. they have experience in europe. this would be their first san francisco project. they have committed to having local staff working full-time on the project, but it is also exciting that we have attracted new investment to san francisco, but obviously the most important thing we have emphasized is they need to have as much local participation and local members of the team as possible, and they have done that. all the other members of the team are local and they will have a permanent presence in san francisco as a result of the project. with that, we will proceed with negotiatin

he asked the judge for mercy. >>we realize that while the former governor made every effort to try and ask for compassion from the judge thinking that at some point there may be the possibility of an appeal ... he has walked a fine line with his back against the wall trying to do one thing with the intent of another. >>what he did was to apologize for lots of things but never accepting responsibility for committing crimes are breaking the law so without that admission it's tough to see this judge giving any form of leniency to the governor we are preparing for a very harsh sentencing here. >>rick pearson one of the things we wanted to ask you was about that atmosphere in springfield during the rod blagojevich time in office did it grind to a halt? >>there was a complete lack of trust in the governor at the time. legislators had to ask for contractual memorandums of understanding with his signature so that they could of force agreementsenforce agreements. it was believed he was operating in his own world the genera

i beg your mercy and i am a very ill man. "now, as i said, he's facing 14 years coming in. there was a long hearing about jack johnson's health. he is now claiming that he has parkinson's disease and that a long sentence, a 14-year sentence would be "a death sentence" according to johnson's defense attorneys. after some counseling with the judge, he decided to reduce the guidelines down to a period of between 7 and 9 years. not because of the health issues but because he recognized that johnson has been cooperative with authorities and is accepting responsibility for the bribes and the obstruction of evidence he was engaged in and he did admit to. so we are now awaiting the sentencing from the judge who has said he's going to go for a sentence between 7 and 9 years. just moments away we're expecting to hear from him making the final judgment of where in that range the sentence is going to fall. but as i said, jack johnson is begging former see and, in fact, submitted a petition today with more than 400 signatures, people supporting him. as you reported, jc, the courtroom he
