Obama Secretary of Education Arne Duncan linked to Chicago corruption probe

Martin says the refusal by Chicago officials to release Arne Duncan’s financial records is a legal confirmation that Duncan is linked to an investigation of financial fraud at the agency

(CHICAGO)(December 13, 2009) Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin will hold a Chicago news conference Sunday, December 13th to announce that the Chicago Board of Education is refusing to release Obama Secretary of Education Arne Duncan’s financial records because of an ongoing corruption investigation linked to the death of Michael Scott.

Attorneys for the Board of Education have refused to turn over either Scott’s or Duncan’s credit card records on the grounds they are both under investigation.

“If they won’t turn over Arne Duncan’s financial records at the Chicago Public Schools because they are ‘under investigation,’ then Arne Duncan is under investigation for financial fraud,” Martin will charge in his news conference.

“Barack Obama, Richard Daley and Arne Duncan owe the American people an immediate and complete explanation of why Duncan’s financial records are being investigated. My letter seeking release, and the Board’s refusal to release them, are self-explanatory. Someone is under investigation for financial fraud, and that ‘someone’ includes an Obama cabinet secretary, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan.

“We are appealing the refusal to produce the records of both Scott and Duncan.

“Once again I am leading the way in exposing corruption in Illinois. When I go to Washington as a U. S. Senator I will do to Barack Obama in Washington what I have been doing to Obama in Chicago: exposing his corrupt practices and associates,” Martin says. “Who vetted Duncan? Why is he under investigation?”
