Audacious public funds scheme targets city sharks
A Chicago Comptroller W Dy Kerfoot faces bold accusations of salaries and taxes being held up by loan sharks with a conspiratorial insider. The Treasury accuses public office collusion as police pay rolls were delayed and officers listed with notes to “Hold this for the Comptroller.” The scandal expands to a broader look at personal property taxes and loans linked to Weber and related firms.
