SUGGESTION FOR POSSIBLE INVESTIGATION

Dear Agent Grant:

I am currently a candidate for Governor of Illinois. During the course of a campaign you get bits and pieces of information, and often they do not connect or add up. And, things happen on the campaign trial that initially do not make sense, or do not seem to be connected but eventually you being to see patterns and relationships.

I am writing to share with you my conclusions concerning possible crime syndicate links at a local bank, as well as the incumbent State Treasurer (my opponent) as well as a candidate for Treasurer, Alexi Giannoulias.

Very frankly, I do not have the means to complete my investigation. Nevertheless, I believe that there is a bona fide preliminary basis to look further into the Broadway National Bank (“BNB”) and Judy Baar Topinka’s relationship with that institution.

You may have seen the news reports concerning the BNB (one example accompanies this letter). The reports are troubling to say the least. A small bank in a neighborhood in Chicago facilitating credits in Miami? Hello? I was much more active in fighting organized crime in the 1970’s but I can see a red flag when it is put up to my nose.

Moreover, as I campaigned with Topinka I saw that she was constantly seeking to redeem “chits” for banking favors done to special interest groups. It was very organized. I believe I can now say that she has been using the state’s financial resources as a political slush fund. I believe you will find on closer inspection that Topinka and Giannoulias and BNB all have links, direct and indirect, to each other.

I do not necessarily believe that Topinka has enriched herself personally from her ties to these interests and figures; but she has been “taking in the cleaning” for former Governor Ryan and others for a long, long time.

Please feel free to contact me if you wish to discuss the matter further.


Respectfully submitted,


ANDY MARTIN
