Kelly was refusing to “cooperate” against Blago, so why the hit.
“Kelly was refusing to “cooperate” against Blago, so why the hit.”
Knew who all the key people had their bodies buried..
And if I recall, wasn’t their some connection between this guy, and RAHM EMANUEL, too?
From the story: Kelly, who was indicted alongside Blagojevich in April, pleaded guilty this week in a separate federal case.
On Tuesday, in a surprise move just a day before his scheduled trial, Kelly, owner of a roofing business, pleaded guilty to two counts of mail fraud as part of a kickback scheme to illegally obtain $8.5 million in work at O'Hare International Airport.
At the time, Kelly, 51, said he was under pressure from federal prosecutors to cooperate in their investigation of Blagojevich, but he refused.
Taking no chances on this guy giving up what he knows under pressure? I'm sure this trial was to put pressure on his Blago affiliation...
When you play the game at that level, you don’t take chances. Hence the potential that this was not a death by natural causes or an accident. This smacks of someone reducing their exposure, tidying up loose ends.
Just because he knew something. By way of analogy, my grandfather was a lawyer in Chicago during Capone's day. He knew another lawyer who went to work for Capone. 6 months later, that lawyer was dead.
Doesn't matter how willing you are to sell your soul to the devil. What matters is what you know. If you ain't "family", you're dead.
Good question, he was due to go to prison for kickbacks on roofing jobs at Ohare Airport... but isn’t that pretty much common practice in Illinois, NY, NJ???? and he was a fundraiser for Blago.... I read Salicylate poisoining...
Depends on who did the hit.
Read the story. He was caving.
