Sounds like someone else we know.

Hey, most of the commenters here are Republicans and you-all really, really backed Brizzi bigtime! Surely some of you-all have inside connections to get Carl to do what you-all think is his job. Or does he ignore "the little folk" now that he's safely re-elected?

PROSECUTE MONROE GRAY, et al, for the FELONY Ghost Employment & Official Misconduct!

Call Carl Brizzi to question!

Mr. Grey may want to re-think giving up the $83,000 dollar a year job he has now.

Gary, there is news about Monroe Gray's concrete co. being ordered to pay unpaid bills. Funny that it appeared in IBJ Daily which was sent at 12:06 p.m. and as of now (12:42), there's NOTHING on Indy Star.com. Here's what appeared in IBJ Daily.

Councilman Gray ordered to pay $43,514
IBJ Staff

A Marion County Superior Court judge has ordered a company owned by City-County Council President Monroe Gray to pay $43,514 in unpaid bills. The judgment resulted from a suit filed against Mid Regional Concrete Inc. by Charlotte, N.C.-based Sunbelt Rentals, formerly NationsRent Inc.

Gray could not be reached for comment.

The decision is the latest in a long string of business troubles for Gray, a Democrat.

Yesterday, the Republican who is vying for Gray's council seat, Kurt Webber, charged that Gray is in a conflict of interest by holding the seat and working for the Indianapolis Fire Department. Webber's challenge followed an Indianapolis Star story showing that few records exist to document Gray's work within the fire department.

And of course, there will be nothing done about this either.

There's going to be another protest at the City County Building regarding Monroe Gray's ethics, ghost employment, and the lack of transparency to the people regarding MBE city contracts.

Watch HoosiersForFairTaxation.com for an announcement soon.

(p.s. where is Wilson on this issue? Why isn't he defending Gray? He was at Gray's fundraiser last night.)

People don't make large political contributions to someone like Brizzi without expecting to get something for their money.

They nailed Capone but it was Sam Giancana who took control of the Chicago illegal numbers racket.
The present Indianapolis illegal numbers racket began in South Chicago.
With a little work you might find the MOMO had connections to a rather unusual priviate detective agency in Indianapolis that was established and ran by___________ (you fill in the blank)

This is the perfect time for the new United States Attorney to demonstrate LEADERSHIP and prosecute Monroe Gray, Cody & Lacy Johnson, Carl Drummer, Bart Peterson, Fire Chief Greeson....and expose the CORRUPTION that is "The Democrat Machine!"

2007-10-04T08:56:00.000-05:00

"If this were Chicago, the U.S. Attorney's office would be all over it, but this is Indianapolis."

Or Northern Indiana. Until he became a judge, Joe Van Bokklen was busting the Lake County Dems chops pretty good.

We had Susan Brooks *sigh*.

Why is Carl Brizzi failing to act??? It seems clear that the evidence is present to convict!

Brizzi was elected to be prosecutor, if he refuses to prosecute corrupt officials, then he is a failure.

Remember, anon 8:30, don't forget the feds nailed Al Capone for income tax evasion, not any of the other more serious crimes he and his mob buddies committed.

Consider the $83,000 the Mayor pays Gray as "protection money". It's really that simple.

2007-10-04T08:36:00.000-05:00

Then our U.S.Attorney is on the syndicate's payroll too Gary. That's not a surprise, it wouldn't be the first time one was tied in with organized crime. Hell, organized crime can't even exist without help from the U.S.Attorney's office.........OR CARL BRIZZI'S FOR THAT MATTER.

2007-10-04T08:30:00.000-05:00

With Indianapolis Black organized crime running the largest multi-million dollar illegal numbers racket in the United States and it's spin-off narcotics, prostitution and vehicle theft operations you people are concerned with ghost employment???

I hate to burst your bubble but Gray's not going down. Neither is Peterson and others. If the Feds don't give a damn about organized crime in this city do you think Carter gives a rip about Monroe Gray and a measly $83 grand for sitting on his ass watching over the numbers operations and collecting cash.

When you worked to re-elect Brizzi you thought he'd put fires out. What you really got was a man building small fires into raging infernos. In short, you were played for a sucker and got screwed. M.Kennedy would have done the same.
It's going to take more than day bloggers to take down organized crime and the people like Gray that keep it's wheels greased.
Ghost employment is the least of this city's worries right now.

2007-10-04T08:05:00.000-05:00

I'm wondering this myself. All this effort to re-elect Brizzi and THIS is how we are repaid? IANAL, can the State AG look into this if the county prosecutor does not?

How many more are there on the take and where is Brizzi-MIA it seems. The good ol boys dem and rep mingle.
