Marty McLaughlin Sees No Surprise in Tim Mapes’ Conviction

From State Rep. Marty McLauighlin:

McLaughlin Not Surprised by Madigan Top Lieutenant Tim Mapes Guilty Verdict

LAKE BARRINGTON… State Representative Martin McLaughlin (R-Barrington Hills) said, “This week, Tim Mapes – former Chief of Staff to the indicted former Speaker of the House Michael J. Madigan- was found guilty of lying to the Federal government in its investigation into Madigan’s corruption.”

“Many of the current problems all Illinoisans face started many decades ago, as former Speaker Madigan started constructing his unethical behavior as the head of the Illinois Democratic party,” said McLaughlin.

Rep. McLaughlin said, “From the blatant Gerrymandering of our legislative maps to doling out political favors for official legislative action and jobs for special interest groups in exchange for campaign donations, this criminal enterprise was an affront to our constitutional republic and an insult to every single Illinoisan.”

“This swift guilty verdict for the former Speaker’s long-time top lieutenant, on the heels of the Com-Ed Four trial earlier this year, brings us one step closer to the highly anticipated Madigan corruption trial scheduled for next year,” said McLaughlin.

“I hope our current Speaker will finally start getting serious about real ethics reforms. I am calling on Speaker Welch to actually make true to his phrase of a “New Day in Springfield,” said McLaughlin.

“I will join him on any and all reforms making Illinois free from this type of influence-peddling because the people of Illinois deserve so much better than the lies and blatant corruption this ruling party brought our citizens for decades,” concluded Rep. McLaughlin.

  1. McLaughlin might want to focus his ire on corrupt elections in this state.

  2. As a RINO in thrall to Gov. Not-so-Kosher, he has little to worry about.

    He’s a swamp creature, so he’s protected

  3. It’s quite simple to find out what Republicans are actually trying to help improve Illinois for It’s citizens.

    The DemoUnionSocialist cult of Corruption only puts up candidates and spends loads of cash to go against true conservative voices and one’s that VOTE conservatively.

    Marty doesn’t cow tow or play their game.

    He will always get a tough opponent with gobs of stolen union $$$ to try and take him out of office.

    Good luck in 24 Marty🇺🇸

  4. IMO, is Franks on deck or in the hole?

    Think of who Franks could hypothetically drop a dime on in Springfield and McHenry County.

    Personally, I wouldn’t trust him if I wee involved as it will be everyone for themselves to get a deal.

  5. Look at MC and who for example was backing Miller at Algonquin Township, Franks as Chairman of the MC Board and Kenneally at the MCSAO to name a few. Connect the dots……………………………………………..

  6. DrRob, you better look under the surface about your idol with feet of clay: McLaughlin.
