He said it enough over the phone. Along with a lot of other things.
Honestly, the reason he's doing this is that he thinks he can (a) get political pressure on the legislature to Not Hurt Him, or (b) court the press and court the jury pool in Da City.
You see where his lawyer dumped him? At this point, nobody but hacks hard up for publicity would take him on. He just paid off Winston and Strawn, one of the biggest firms in Chicago, around a mil, and another almost-mil to other firms. His wife's been fired, and he's about to be. There's no money coming in, and he has no consituency out there to bankroll him in the future.
