May 22, 2012 (CHICAGO) -- Rod Blagojevich's former chief of staff, John Harris, will begin serving his 10-day prison sentence Tuesday.

Harris was convicted of helping the former governor attempt to sell President Barack Obama's old U.S. Senate seat.

Harris had faced a maximum five-year sentence, but the judge noted his cooperation with authorities, which included testifying against Blagojevich.
