Teamsters Corruption Scandal Widens CounterPunch Wire
In an April 21, 2004, letter to Teamster General Counsel Patrick Szymanski, the union's anti-corruption chief, Ed Stier, asserted that he produced evidence that '...Scalf's efforts to shut down our investigative activities were the result of pressure from Chicago-area Teamsters who in turn were acting at the instigation of racketeers.'
One week later, on April 28, Stier and the entire 'Project RISE' anti-corruption team of the union resigned in protest of the shutdown of the investigation.------------------------------------------- posted 6:36 AM :: reference link ::
