Eye on Rezko News, tidbits and an inside view of the Tony Rezko trial Feds ask to strike Rezko's October sentencing By Natasha Koreckion October 6, 2008 5:28 PM Federal prosecutors just asked a judge to strike Tony Rezko's Oct. 28, sentencing -- acknowledging for the first time they are undergoing discussions with the political fund-raiser. That could be good news for Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama, since the previous sentencing was likely to bring unfavorable publicity about his former fund-raiser just days before the election. In a motion filed hours ago, Assistant U.S. Attorney Reid Schar asked a federal judge to set a status hearing in the case in December, saying it was something the government and Rezko agreed on. "The parties agree that the Oct. 28, 2008 sentencing date, as well as dates related to sentencing filings should be stricken while the parties engage in discussions that could affect their sentencing postures," Schar wrote. The Sun-Times first reported Rezko's possible cooperation in August. Last week, sources close to the investigation told us the feds were in the process of vetting information from Rezko.
