Ackerman,

These fellas ought to keep you busy for a while although they're kinda Punky Brewster. I count at least Four Scumbags of the Week, including a guy chiseling a Bar Association, if you can believe that.

Prospect Heights man accused of stealing from special ed fund

Operation Cookie Jar? Isn't that just another name for The Cullerton-Madigan Show down in Springfield?

quote:

Also charged in Operation Cookie Jar were Martin Boyd, 62, of Hometown, accused of theft of government property as village accountant for Harwood Heights; Donald Jacobs, 62, of Posen, accused of the same charge with the Posen Park District; and Michael Tracy, 48, of Tinley Park, accused of theft of property with the Southwest Bar Association.

And...Anita? You go girl!

"We cannot find a solution to corruption simply by indicting governor after governor," [Cook County State's Attorney Anita] Alvarez said. "We've got to start from the bottom and work our way up. We have to chisel away at the problem."

Chisel away? LOL!
