CHICAGO (AP) – A day before Rod Blagojevich's sentencing hearing begins, prosecutors are repeating their contention that the ousted Illinois governor has never accepted responsibility for attempting to auction off President Barack Obama's old U.S. Senate seat and other crimes.

Prosecutors made the assertion in a filing Monday with U.S. District Court in Chicago.

Blagojevich's two-day sentencing hearing starts Tuesday. Most legal experts say Judge James Zagel is likely to give the twice-elected governor about 10 years in prison.
