CLEVELAND, Ohio -- FBI agents arrested county Commissioner Jimmy Dimora early this morning. Witnesses at his home reported he was led out in handcuffs and chains.

He arrived at the FBI building on Lakeside Avenue in Cleveland at 7:20 a.m. in a black Dodge Caravan.

The arrest comes after a years-long investigation that most recently led to charges against former county auditor Frank Russo.

8 total people were arrested, including 2 judges. 31 counts in the inditment, mostly relating to the bribery and tax evasion that has been directed at Jimmy. BTW, to you see Jimmy 2 fingers flip the bird to the assembled media has he pulled into federal court? Classy isn’t it!!!
Time for the feds to go take control of all the homes on the Lake Erie Islands that were built on our dime, where these losers spent mote time than actually working!!!

So we have the election for the reformed county government in 48 days. If voters want to continue the 25 year stranglehold of screwing us, vote for Ed Fitzgerald and Dem majority in the council. If we want to really turn things around here, we have to vote for Matt Dolan and Rep majority in the council. There is no other choice!! And another thing, time to go around town to all the welfare offices and point out those people, who haven’t had government or for that matter, any kind of job for generations who continue to steal our money with no checks or balances to stop it!!

STILL A GREAT DAY THOUGH!!!

Soon to be sold at bargain prices? Sounds like a nice place to retire!

Just in time for the November elections, too. Don’t know much about it, but it sounds juicy.

the “good judge” is running against a friend of mine Mike Astrab. Bet the champagne breaks in his house tonight!

The voters would NOT be stupid enough to still reelect her, would they?

He can, at times, be a bit of a liberal himself(my opinion), but he`s gonna tear them a new one today! As a resident of Portage County, I`m close enough to appreciate the fireworks but far enough to not have gotten burned by this Cuyahoga mess-terpiece. Sit back and enjoy the show.

Nothing coming out of that rat`s nest would surprise me Dolly. It really reminds me of Chicago, no kidding. Little slices of home.

Typical Democrat politics as usual! Graft, bribes and Kickbacks.

Now it’s time to go after some ofthe nearly 37% of county residents who are receiving some kind of support we provide to them.
Thanks for posting the thread....

I believe that if she is under indictment, she is removed from the ballot automatically.

Many of the Ohio Democrats claim to have graduated from Penn State. What they really mean is STATE PENN. This answer will also fool a polygraph. (Learned this from a convict)
