It would seem the FBI has made 2 arrests. While Chief Bladel and the DPD were involved from the beginning, the case got fedalized a few weeks ago because of embzzlement and money laundering in the 7 figure range. While the DPD has been helping the QC Times and Lee Enterprises in the investigation for weeks, the FBI made the arrests. And for you people who say crimes are commited here by people who live elsewhere, the people arrested are from Illinois.
So to Chief Bladel and the DPD I say good job. When this comes out it will make for an interesting read.

snarky chick sent a link to the QC Times story that wasn’t available when I posted this morning. A big thank you nod to you snarky. It’s hard to read in the pop up comment section so I thought I’d put it here.
To read the story go here.

You can sure as bet they have rental housing here in Davenport and belong to the QCRPA!

It would be nice if you explained what this is about. I have no clue. There’s no links and nothing in the post to even give a hint as to what the facts are about this.
I still have no idea.

There aren’t any links to anything yet, because the story just came out. It will probably be in tomorrows QC Times. Someone embezzled over a million dollars from the QC Times, and parent company Lee Enterprises. I can’t tell you more than I know, but I thought it was worth a post.

Thank you snarky. It wasn’t available when I got the nod this morning, and I got busy. I put it as an addendum in the post as that might make it easier to read than in the pop up window here.
