Tim Mapes, ex-chief of staff to Illinois House Speaker Madigan, reporting to prison
CHICAGO -- Tim Mapes, the longtime chief of staff for former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, was headed to federal prison Tuesday.June 11 was the longstanding date on which Mapes had been ordered to surrender and report to prison. A jury found Mapes guilty in August 2023 of one count of perjury and one count of attempted obstruction of justice. He was sentenced to two and a half years in federal prison on Feb. 12.
An indictment by a federal grand jury said Mapes, who served as Madigan's chief of staff until 2018, denied knowing McClain acted as an agent or performed work for Madigan during those years when he knew McClain had done so. The grand jury claimed Mapes attempted to 'corruptly obstruct, influence, and impede' the investigation.At sentencing in February, Mapes said he was remorseful but still maintained his innocence. A judge said he wasn't sure how both could be true.
