Former House Speaker Hastert pleads guilty

Former House Speaker Hastert pleads guilty to structuring $3.5 million in hush money transactions in a way to evade requirements to report where the money was going but two sources with knowledge of the federal investigation told CNN in June that Hastert was paying a former student to stay quiet about allegations of sexual abuse from when he was a wrestling coach and teacher in Yorkville, Illinois.
