Don't know the ins and outs of the law, but it's odd that it was the FBI that was the lead in this. Why not CPD? Wonder if the Outfit involvement is more than we currently know.
the mafia doesn't operate in enough "chicago" neighborhoods for the CPD to chase them
they operate in crooked ass suburbs
it's odd that the feds keep busting outfit associates right before they commit a crime
It depends on whose jurisdiction this would have fallen under. If these meetings Mandell was having were in Chicago and if "Club Med" really was in Edgebrook, that would fall under Chicago authority, not the suburbs.
The Feds can bump local law enforcement if the investigation involves federal crimes
Been there and done it I am very much for real, so if you ask, make sure you really want to know.
