The wife of state Sen. Robert Molaro (D-Chicago) is scheduled to be arraigned this week on charges that she was a ghost-payroller on the Senate staff.
Lawyers for Barbara Molaro have said she will plead innocent.
She was paid almost $40,000 from January 1986 to September 1991 as a contractual employee of the Senate president’s office, but didn’t do any work, the government alleges.
10:30 a.m. Tuesday, before U.S. Magistrate Judge Edward Bobrick, Dirksen Federal Building, 219 S. Dearborn St.
