Seventy urges Mariano investigation

Zach Stalberg and the Committee of Seventy are urging City Council to hold hearings on indicted Councilman Rick Mariano, especially to look into the degree to which he was under the thumb of union boss Dougherty (see prev. here) and his dismissal of three staffers who testified to the FBI (see prev. here). Local powers-that-be choose to defer to the feds on this one.
