Federal Indictments Coming?

That federal lawsuit against Dart and the sheriff's office might be getting legs. Here's a little deeper dive into the brewing scandal over at the Cook County Record site:

  • Sheriff's Office staff were allegedly "committing theft of" Covid relief funds;

    - "Three months of schedules had been falsified" for members of an "emergency response team" to receive hazard pay through the Federal Cares Act;

    - Sheriff's Office employees' "personal dogs" were being trained "with Cook County Sheriff's Office staff and County resources;" 

    - A Sheriff's Office executive "had an electronic signature for (Dart) that could be used to forge his signature on any documents," allegedly including payroll records;

    - "... Employees doing political work for (Dart's) re-election campaign in 2022," including time-off requests allegedly approved after the fact and cell phone and computer records showing county devices and paid time were used to work on Dart's campaign;

    - Executives within the Sheriff's Office were allegedly "manipulating job postings" and taking other actions to ensure their relatives and friends were hired for certain positions within the Sheriff's Office, among other allegations.

We can't post the entire lawsuit - it's over fifty pages - but there are a couple free sites that will allow you to download it if you register an email address with them. Here's one of them. There might be more if you search for Case Number 24 CV 13320.

As the plaintiff brought progress reports to Crimesha's office (who expressed no interest in rocking the Prickwrinkle boat that employed her and Dart) this scandal might spread farther than intended, especially if the new Administration wants to shake up things.

Didn’t Dart hire a few of wives and other lowlife relatives in the Sheriff’s office to keep the positive news on his side. I’ll bet they will squeal like a pig when they get whistled in. About time.

If those allegations are true, that is corrupt even for Crook County. The media has truly disgraced itself here. No MSM coverage. It's has ghostpayrolling, racism, FBI investigations, Covid fraud, inmates dying during covid as unit was allegedly ghosting. What do we even have press for?

In the clink, where the tough guys reside,
Sat Tommy, with nowhere to hide.
His hairpiece, a fashion faux pas,
Had been confiscated, alas!
The inmates all stared, a bewildered array,
At the dome so bald, come what may.
"Hey Tommy," they jeered, with a mischievous grin,
"Your hairdo's in jail, where your party begins!"

I pray that Toupee Tommy gets caught up in all this. He’s always been a smarmy son of a bitch who fancies himself the smartest person in the room.

I can see it now… Dart sentenced to a jail term and he suggests the DOC Admin allow him and other inmates to have pizza parties like he authorized when he ran County.

When his request is denied, he flies into a fit of rage, using his rug to clog the toilet in his cell so he can flood his tier and those below 😂😂

OFF TOPIC:
But worth reading.

Heather Mac Donald... Years back Ms Mac D. made late-night visits to some lesser parts of Chicago to interview locals, Accompanied by one copper, was a good read.

Can Trump Make America Safe Again?
The new administration should return federal law enforcement agencies to their original missions.
"Federal grants for police hiring (a regrettable fact of life) should be conditioned on getting rid of racial preferences in promotions. Departments should have to publish transparent data on the demographics of criminals and their victims. Supporting law enforcement research is a legitimate use of federal tax dollars, since localities are unlikely to fund such work. The federal government should underwrite empirical investigations into effective policing strategies."

"Illinois is typical in its flagrant contempt for federal authority. A 2021 guidance from the state’s attorney general prohibits local officials from transferring “any person into an immigration agent’s custody” or rendering “collateral assistance to federal immigration agents,” such as coordinating an arrest in a courthouse or other public facility. If an immigration agent requests information, local officials may not provide it."

Why would you think the new Feds would come in to clean up this sewer?? This has been in Dem control for 90 years. There is no cleaning up this cesspool. The citizens voted for this, and it will continue until the citizens have had enough.

Enforce the federal laws and the scamming of taxpayer money by the pols and their pets but change the "Chicago Way" would take decades and huge money. The Orange Man has bigger battles worldwide and in D.C. Shitsville needs to clean up itself. Look at California, even after the fires some poll said over 50% trust Slick and Bass. You can't fix that.

There are enough of the permanently aggrieved in the city and in command to outlast any presidential administration's time frame. Just the facts, as Joe Friday would say. Those of you holding on for better times, sadly it's a fool's dream. Keep watching and hand wringing, but it will never change until the citizens bring it. Will you or your kids or grandchildren see the change?? Will it be worth it living in this Shithole for the next 20-40 years??

ABC-owned WLS-Channel 7 isn't just Chicago's top-rated television station. With employees related to three prominent Democrats, it also may have the most politically connected newsroom in town. Morning news anchor Tanja Babich is the daughter-in-law of U.S. Senator Dick Durbin, recently hired per-diem reporter Meghan Kluth is the daughter of Congressman Mike Quigley, and per-diem reporter Alexis McAdams is the niece of Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart. It's strictly a coincidence, according to John Idler, president and general manager of ABC 7. "These are all talented people who were hired on their own merit," Idler said.

Cook County jail was named the 1 Hotspot in the enitre Country by NY Times during covid outbreak as multiple inmates/staff died. This deranged interview he did puts him right in middle of scandal imo. He claims to Mary Ann Ahern he camped at jail, did not leave for weeks. So how was his high-ranking unit allegedly ghost payrolling if he was in fact there? Someone is lying.
