But they have nothing to do with her husband's corruption trial. Patti Blagojevich said during a break Monday that she's been reading "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes," a short story collection by Arthur Conan Doyle, on her cell phone. The fictional, pipe-smoking detective also appeared in a defense motion seeking Blagojevich's acquittal. Lawyers cited Doyle's caution against twisting facts to suit theories rather than the other way around. Patti Blagojevich has been seen reading from her phone during several less-riveting stretches of the case. She says she's also fond of Jane Austen. Her husband has pleaded not guilty to charges including that he schemed to sell President Barack Obama's former Senate seat.
