COLORADO’S CHICAGO: Another Corrupt Democrat Revealed In Adams County
This has past the point of ridiculousness. Virtually every elected Democrat in Adams County has now been tied to corruption in the last year. From County Commissioner Alice Nichol allegedly receiving cash payments of $10,000 from a company that charged the county to pave roads that didn’t exist, to County Assessor Gil Reyes saving his campaign donors nearly a million bucks in taxable income through lowering their assessed property values, if you’ve got a D next to your name in Adams County you’re probably corrupt. Today we add news of RTD Director Ken Riley from The Denver Post, who has apparently fled the state after illegally spending five figures of union money on his own RTD election.

Nearly two weeks ago Tony’s Rants was the first to report on Riley’s repeated absences from RTD board meetings and attempts to track him down were unsuccessful. Rumors were circulating that Riley had fled the area and was under investigation for theft from his former employer, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME).
The Denver Post reports this morning that the rumors are indeed true. Records show Riley spent thousands of AFSCME dollars to fund his campaign for the RTD board. Wining and dining, postage and even his victory celebration were funded by union members without authorization. Read the rest of this entry »
