ComEd to pay $200 million to end federal criminal probe, top state Democrat subpoenaed
News reports says Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, a Democrat, is the unnamed elected official connected to the probe
ommonwealth Edison Company, the largest electric utility in Illinois, has agreed to pay $200 million to resolve a federal criminal probe into a years-long bribery scheme, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Chicago said Friday.
The payment is part of an agreement to end the federal criminal investigation that also included a deferred prosecution deal under which the utility admitted to arranged jobs and vendor subcontracts – and payments associated with those jobs and subcontracts – for associates of a high-level elected Illinois official.
The payments were to influence and reward the official’s efforts to assist ComEd with legislation related to the company and its business interests, federal officials said.
The unnamed public official controlled which legislation was brought to a vote in the Illinois House and exerted “substantial influence” over fellow lawmakers concerning measures affecting ComEd, federal officials also said.
News reports have identified the official as Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan, a Democrat.

Absolutely disgraceful. they really should just gas em. I have no sympathy what so ever to the rioters. They have gotten far less than they deserve. Give all those officers bird shot and let them blast away.
