Federal prosecutors on Monday rejected the argument that charges against former Illinois House Speaker Michael J. Madigan should be tossed due to a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling. In a court filing, prosecutors stated that the Supreme Court's interpretation of a key anti-corruption law does not affect the bribery allegations against Madigan. The phrase 'This dog will not hunt' was used to emphasize their stance.
