Call Claude Rains

Suspected 'front company' has good city hall lobbyist. Former top Daley aide Gery Chico helped Azteca win minority certification. A story of suicide and political corruption. Sun Times with the kicker at the end:

Azteca's certifications as a MBE, WBE and DBE were renewed Jan.1, 2009 -- about six months after the FBI agent was beaten up during the Azteca investigation -- and expire in April 2012, according to city records.

City Hall has now moved to bar Azteca, Venegas and her husband from getting any more city work.

"We are shocked at the lengths these few individuals went to to defraud the city and investigators and to hide their front company, including writing up dummy invoices and filling a warehouse full of supplies and materials that were not actually owned by the company," says a statement from the mayor's purchasing department.

Shocked, shocked.Thugs and bums. Democrats in Chicago.

...This is what you get, America, when Democrats run everything. They are crooks, stealing us blind and smiling all the while.
