Federal prosecutors are recommending former Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. get four years in prison for misusing $750,000 in campaign money.
In a sentencing memo filed Friday, prosecutors also urged that Jackson get three years of supervision after his release from prison and return $750,000 to his campaign.
They suggested Jackson's wife, former Chicago Ald. Sandi Jackson, get 18 months for filing false joint federal income tax returns and restitution of $168,550.01.
Prosecutors want the couple to serve staggered sentences with Sandi Jackson serving first.
Jesse and Sandi Jackson pleaded guilty in February and were warned they could be sentenced to nearly five years and two years, respectively.
Prosecutors said Jackson spent thousands of campaign dollars on fan memorabilia, including $4,000 on a Michael Jackson and Eddie Van Halen guitar. Other charges included more than $4,000 for a cruise, $2,300 at Walt Disney World and $5,600 at a spa on Martha's Vineyard.
Court documents show Sandi Jackson failed to claim about $600,000 on her income tax returns between 2005 in 2011.
They are scheduled to be sentenced July 1.
