At Street Level 175

 

 
At Street Level. The story about Jay Given precipitated me talking with a new source who stumbled upon my blog. He cut to the chase about the mayor taking thousands of dollars from a businessman in our neck of the woods. It was not a lump sum but spread out over the years. Like $10,000 here & $20,000 here etc., etc. When Street pressed him for his source, the middleman mentioned it was an agent who got left @ the altar on this one, you feel me? Street was taking mental notes & just let him blow. "The trippy part is one time that businessman went to the mayor's house & seen agent inside the house." Middleman did not stutter. My mind went back to the time, and Street came up with "Hope with Cope" campaign slogan. The statute of limitations has run out on this bribery case, but Street is keeping it 100.
 
P.S. "Why didn't you bring  this up when he ran for Mayor the last time, Street?" Guy asked me. Rather do it in its organic form.
