Utah mayor killed in Afghanistan while on National Guard deployment

 

Brent Taylor was killed Saturday in an "insider attack" in Kabul, according to a statement from the Utah National Guard to Fox 13 Salt Lake City, while the terrorist responsible was immediately killed by Afghan forces.

 

"These reports also indicate the attacker was immediately killed by other Afghan Forces," the statement said. "The incident is under investigation."

 

The attacker was reportedly posing as a member of the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces, which U.S. officials have hoped can take over battling terror groups in the region in the coming years.

Loops of Capital Crimes

 

In 2003, James Reynolds, a Chicago investment banker who is a member of Obama's national finance committee, was recorded on FBI wiretaps arranging what prosecutors said was a "sham" consulting contract with a woman they called the "paramour" of a mayoral adviser in Philadelphia. His firm later won $300,000 worth of city contracts.

 

James Reynolds, who has raised more than $200,000 for the Obama campaign, is chief executive of Loop Capital Markets, a Chicago investment banking firm that specializes in municipal finance.

 

He began raising money for Obama more than a decade ago, and opened his Hyde Park home for one of Obama's first fundraisers during the 2004 Senate race, according to Hermene Hartman, a mutual friend.

 

"Jim and Barack are very close friends and have been for a long time," said Leslie Bond, a Chicago money manager and Obama fundraiser.
