[email protected]Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan arrived at a rural federal prison Wednesday to begin serving a 61/2-year sentence for racketeering and fraud.
The 73-year-old Republican entered the federal correctional center about noon, Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman Felicia Ponce said. He entered through a back gate, avoiding a throng of media awaiting his arrival at the main entrance.
The pharmacist-turned-governor, who gained international acclaim for his opposition to the death penalty, has said he will fight to clear his name even while sitting in prison.
At dawn today, Ryan left his home for his journey to federal prison in Oxford, Wis., on corruption charges.
Appearing relaxed, hours after declaring his innocence, Ryan, 73, left his Kankakee home at around 5:50 a.m. and sat in the front seat of his Ford van full of family members including son George Ryan Jr. who drove the vehicle.
