Ald. Walter Burnett Jr. still can’t explain what happened with $165,000 in campaign money – Chicago Sun-Times

Burnett, who was first elected to the Chicago City Council in 1995, began putting money from political contributions into investment accounts in 1999, according to reports he filed with the elections board. Matt Dietrich, a spokesman for the state elections board, says that what Burnett’s reports show is that, in some instances, “You’re telling us you deposited the money back into the campaign fund, and we see no such thing.”
