"15 CHARGED IN FEDERAL BRIBERY PROBE OF CITY BUILDING PERMITS"

Via A Chicago Blog, from the full Department of Justice press release (PDF download):

CHICAGO – Fifteen defendants, including property owners and developers, contractors and seven City of Chicago inspectors were arrested on federal bribery charges, most of them for allegedly exchanging cash payments and other benefits with a former corrupt “expediter” relating to various city building, zoning and related permit matters, federal law enforcement officials and the city’s Inspector General announced today.

Good luck herding the cockroaches, Mr. Fitzgerald. I'm doing my best to be hopeful.
