Mayoral Field to Shrink Again?

  • A federal judge has ruled that the FBI had probable cause to search the cellphone of a longtime top aide to Cook County Circuit Court Clerk Dorothy Brown as part of a sweeping probe into pay-to-play allegations of corruption in Brown’s office.

    In denying a motion to quash information seized from former associate clerk Beena Patel’s phone, U.S. District Judge Sarah Ellis revealed new details from a sealed 2015 FBI search warrant application, including allegations from a former employee that Brown personally picked up cash payoffs from employees at the home of her alleged “bagman.”

    The former employee — identified only as Individual A — told agents that Brown was personally involved in the hiring of all 2,300 employees in the office and that Individual A resigned after learning that she was “expected to make monetary contributions” to Brown as part of her employment, Ellis wrote.
Actual envelopes full of cash? We thought that went out of vogue after Harold took over.

Note that once again, Lisa Madigan is no where to be found.

Only the police need reform and ethics training. the politicians in Chicago are the best "MONEY" and lots of it, can buy!!!!! The state is sssssssoooooooo corrupt they can't find a starting point. Just for shits and grins, try looking at rahmbo's personal piggy bank, aka the TIF Accounts!!!!! Then take a look at the States Attorney who does not prosecute and see if there is any incentive there, and then look at the bond system to see if there is any hanky panky there, then check out the sheriffs hiring practices and program money at the jail. These are just areas that have been ringing alarm bells for years and using a little common sense in evaluating there is probably an issue or two with each of them.
Needless to say the AG's office has done "NOTHING" in all the time "she" has been there! If there was a law for negligence and dereliction of duty we would have "NO" elected officials in the entire state. THEY ALL SUCK!!!!!!!

Wouldn't it just be the sweetest of sweet irony if the biggest corruption scandal to nust wide open leads to the prosecution of Lisa Madagain herself?

Might she have been feeling so much heat that she decided to run away, rather than run again?

Venture not, in seach of the elusive Lisa, least ye find, upon locating her, thyself lost within the twisted maze of her poppa's ass cave. A maze from whence no seeker hath ever emerged unpooped upon.

This has been a Pubic Service Pronouncement.

The corruption in this city is unbelievable. These politicians have a lot to worry about if these citizens ever wake up and decide they've had enough. Crowd mentality doesn't respect anyone or anything.

(OT) I was just reading another thread and I also have a big hike in my tax bill on the southwest side, David or the cook County clerk just came out last week and said he had a $1 billion plus surplus in revenue so why our taxes going up when there is such a huge surplus? Is this one billion dollars just extra money that you’re going to use it to buy votes and pander to the Democrats? It is incredible what they do here and still no federal intervention no federal investigations Noah diamonds in a say Chicago is the most corrupt city in United States of America correct and it will continue unabated! We just will pay our taxes like the lemons we are getting our services which are scarce and people go to the polling place and I like the same old people that are doing this to us! No wonder so many people are running out of the city state and county as quickly as they can your taxing them out the crime is rising!

P.s. $1 Billion now you’re talking real money here!

I was wondering why Ms. Madigan hates the Police so much? I believe that she thinks that every Policeman played with dangerous toys when they were kids! We all know that the only thing that she has done in her career, besides looking out for her daddy, was test toys for their safety.

Saw on the news that our ex president, from Chicago, has decided to endorse “certain” candidates, in races in Illinois. His first candidate to endorse is JB. Think that he may need another $175,000,000.00 from our state budget? What else is JB promising for his endorsement?
It’s the Chicago way....

I could't be more delighted.Thank you for this post. Corruption is a topic very close to my heart, or maybe rather detecting and fighting corruption rings. I say "rings" because there are usually many people involved. Those, who take and those who give. Both, in my opinion, equally guilty.
All government agencies are infected. Let's not forget, government jobs are always on the top of the list of job-seekers. And don't tell me some people are stupid enough not to take the advantage of it.
Dorothy Brown is, apparently, not stupid.

What? Bags of cash, in Chicago politics?
I’m shocked !

Downtown Dorthief Brown is as crooked as they come.
She should have been dealt with years ago, criminally and ethically.

For the lemon’record, Fed. Judge Ellis is an obama appointee steeped in the defense of white collar financial misdoings.
Oh, and she’s a former Assistant Corp Counsel in the City Law Dept during the Shortshanks years.
Is there anyone better than an ex-defense lawyer calling the shots in a ChicagoWay Democrat - Hand in the cookie jar case?
Gotta wonder.

Dorthief Brown should have just stepped away when she was told to.
Looks like she will be heading downtown after all.

A Chicago politician taking a bribe, no way no how. That is just so ridiculous. Your just trying to pull down a powerful black role model. Pure racism that's all this is. She would never cross that line. Would she?

Lisa Madigan is nowhere to be found because this is a true "witch hunt." Everything she has been accused if has been proven to be false. The "blue jean scandal" was instituted by the manager who preceded her. The office being a mess with files missing and paperwork missing was an employee who got caught taking files home and shredding them. Since it was a white employee could it have been racism? They need to investigate the real crooks like Cong Danny Davis and his crew. It looks like Willie has found out it is better to disassociate himself from this loser that Davis is, too.
