TALK ABOUT TOUGH LUCK!

All odds seem to be against this man. Just after being barred from public office, former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been indicted on a political corruption charge linked to the 2008 collapse of Romano Prodi's government, a defence lawyer in the case has said. Naples prosecutors accused Berlusconi of bribing a former senator to change sides as part of an attempt to bring down the government of former Prime Minister Prodi in 2006. The senator, Sergio De Gregorio, admitted he received three million euros from Berlusconi. He was sentenced to 20 months in jail after plea bargaining. De Gregorio, in a telephone interview with local TV station, Sky, said he had told prosecutors what he knew about the alleged payment and added that he later expressed his regrets to Prodi. In collaborating with prosecutors, in "telling the truth, I lifted a weight'' off my conscience, De Gregorio said. Berlusconi has denied any wrongdoing and his lawyer Michele Cerabona said he was confident of the outcome of a preliminary hearing expected on February 11 next year. This guy probably thinks he is the modern day “Godfather”….lol
