Rezko's Wife In It Up to Her Neck

Mr. and Mrs. Barack Obama bought a parcel of land from Tony Rezko a few years back. But it seems that Rezko's wife Rita is more involved than we suspected: But a review of court records, including new details of Mr. Rezko's finances that emerged recently, show that the lot purchase occurred as he was being pursued by creditors seeking more than $10 million, deepening the mystery of why he would plunge into a real estate investment whose biggest beneficiary appears to have been Mr. Obama. As Mr. Obama and Mr. Rezko were completing the property purchases in June 2005, Mr. Rezko was fighting to keep lenders and investors at bay over defaulted loans and failing business ventures.
