Very cool! I wonder if this is in relation to the RICO act rumblings out of Chicago, or if this was an independent action?

Does anyone know if there can be more than one federal indictment against an organization like ACORN in more than one Federal Court Jurisdiction Area? For instance, can they file this one in Ohio, and have a separate investigation in Chicago and file one there too - especially if it involves different people (like OBAMA in Chicago for the last 10-15 years?).

The US attorney in Chicago an indict Acorn over activities in his area, and the one in Ohio can independently indict them for activities in Ohio. Any and every US attorney in the US can have his own independent indictment against ACORN. This would make the most sense if the objective is to ensure a conviction on something, somewhere.
