FBI: SENTENCED — Chicago's Most Powerful Alderman Ran City Hall for 54 Years

📖Federal agents walked into Chicago City Hall, papered over every window in Ed Burke's office, and ejected his staff. It was the first time most of Chicago knew the city's most powerful alderman was under investigation.It would take five more years to convict him.Ed Burke served as Chicago's 14th Ward Alderman for 54 years. As chairman of the City Council's Finance Committee, he was called the most powerful alderman in the city's history. And according to 13 unanimous jury verdicts, he used that power to run his private law firm as an arm of his public office — shaking down developers, extorting a Burger King over a permit, and turning city government into a pay-to-play machine.The key: a colleague who agreed to wear a wire for two years. Danny Solis recorded everything. Then walked free under a cooperation agreement.Burke got 2 years. Less than 10 months actually served. A $2 million fine. And a commutation petition pending review.Real documents. Real facts. Public record.
