I was wondering when they were going to announce who had been arrested in this case.

"Thank goodness for an Inspector General that is above reproach.
Without him and his office, many wrongdoings would never see the light of day!"

Paul Saber is a Real Estate Developer and Ed McKenzie founded Solar Systems, LLC with a business partner in 2009.
They manufacturer of solar thermal collector plates.

"The men were charged with conspiracy, forgery, obtaining property by false pretenses, fraudulent claims upon the government, conversion of government property, grand larceny, embezzlement by public and private officers and embezzlement or falsification of public accounts."

You can read, right?

Campaigning against Mapp? 🙂

Unfortunately for Walker, as long as his office is a political arm of this very corrupt administration, every prosecution he leads initiates will lead to these questions.

Monogram the IG is not corrupt.
His office investigated and the arrests are a result of the audit/investigation by the Inspector General Office and followed up by the AG.

Notice Lolo Willis, now serving 5 years on other charges, had his hands in that pie, too.

Thanks, Alana, for explaining who the business associates are. Isn't Solar Systems the company that got a bunch of federal stimulus money to implement solar programs after the financial crisis? That was another shady biz IMO.

I had the experience of having both Ed and Paul as landlords in Wharfside Village/Landing for my business. I sold my part of the business and I don't miss Ed one single bit.
