Jesse Jackson Jr. items go to auction
The U.S. Marshals Service said it will start selling 13 items in an online auction Tuesday, with proceeds going to help repay $750,000 in campaign funds that the Chicago Democrat illegally spent.
The objects up for auction, such as this red cashmere cape with mink trim, illustrate the disgraced legislator's passion for both pop iconography and for what some might consider gaudy and pricey fashion.
