According to a statement from the U.S. attorney’s office, there are two separate criminal cases. One involves public corruption and the other involves racketeering, armed robberies, arson and illegal gambling.
The announcement is set to come at 2 p.m. CDT. No mention if the cases involve federal, state or local officials. The AP is quick to point out that federal officials have been investigating all three.
