Federal prosecutors say recent FBI surveillance of Ald. Carrie Austin (34th) undermine her claim that she is medically unfit to stand trial on corruption charges.
Austin’s lawyers had asked U.S. District Judge John Kness last month to find her unfit, saying her deteriorating health had brought her to a point that she could not pass a six-minute walking test in September and struggles even with the help of a portable oxygen concentrator.
