Rahm-Scandal

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
The investigation that cleared Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s convicted former city comptroller of any wrongdoing in Chicago also offers new details about the relationship between another top comptroller’s official and a lobbyist whose client won a multimillion-dollar city deal.

Just as they did with Amer Ahmad — who quit as comptroller in July before being charged in a public corruption scheme in Ohio — attorneys from the law firm Drinker, Biddle & Reath said they found no wrongdoing by James T. Raussen, the city’s $127,332-a-year managing deputy comptroller.
