Well technically Hastert was found guilty of structuring and not child rape. Structuring is making multiple payments for the purpose of obscuring large corrupt financial transactions and avoid being reported to the IRS. The clincher here is that this law was enacted by Hastert while he was Speaker. And then of course, he wanted to sue his blackmailer victim to get his money back.

Kinda makes you realize how much of an asshole he really is.
