Northwest Indiana Discussion

Newsflash was correct in his posting that the feds have reverted to an old school approach to getting Philpot. The IRS.

Someone made that initial phone call to the FBI. Was it because Philpot was running as Sheriff? Was it a disgruntal employee, not happy about where & how dedicated funds were being spent?

Fact Christine Cid was visited by the IRS/FBI and that visit helped refresh her memory, that and reportedly a grand jury indictement. I believe that sealed indictement will be opened once Christine has finished her business in federal court.

Now a whole slew of LC Politicians have bit the dust. A number of them out of Gary, both Hall's, Harris, Meeks, et al; E. Chicago saw a Pastric go to jail, five or was it six E. Chicago City Council persons, Philpot, the look at George Van Till and now two Hammond City Councilpersons are being looked at by the IRS.

Now Fact, the IRS is visiting not one, but two Hammond City Councilpersons. FACT! Now what do you think they are fishing for? Tom McDermott Jr. Tom announced earlier this year he was interest in leaving Hammond for another job. I wonder if he had some motiviational information to help him make that decision?

Now that is a trial I want to watch.

Now the second half of this, there are probably near a half dozen or more Philpot relatives employeed with in Lake County.

Now What? By by?

I don't believe Cid was under any tax indictment. I think the feds concocted it as a cover to lend credibility to her whistle-blower activities and consequently, to her testimony.
