(NBC NEWS) Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert arrived Wednesday at the federal courthouse in Chicago, where he is expected to plead guilty in his hush-money case after cutting a deal with prosecutors.
The once-powerful Republican is accused of making illegal bank withdrawals for payoffs to keep sexual misconduct allegations under wraps — and lying about it to the feds.
His lawyers announced earlier this month that they had reached a plea agreement with federal prosecutors but no details were released at the time. It is unclear if the deal calls for him to do prison time.
