This week, Bill Cameron remembers Danny Rostenkowski, who was a US Rep from Chicago for decades. He became the Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee and then spent 15 months in prison for corruption. Rostenkowski died 13 years ago this month.

Ray Long gave an update on the Tim Mapes trial. Mayor Johnson fired Dr. Allison Arwady with some controversy, and hired Larry Snelling as CPD Superintendent.
