The "full indictment" is a .pdf, at least at the link in the msnbc article. Right click on the link, and "save target as" to get the whole .pdf document on your own computer, where you can open it and browse in it without "connection delays." It's 75 pages, but only 316 KB.

This should work the same: PDF of full indictment

It appears that the gov was just "carrying on Illinois tradition."

See: Illinois has long legacy of public corruption at msnbc.

The affidavit includes a number of additional charges, aside from the offer to sell the Senate position. It likely will be a long and expensive trial ... unless they find a judge that works cheaply enough. (some are included among the "influenced" at the last link)
