    Attorney: Pastrick isn't paying bills - By LAURI HARVEY, Northwest Indiana News
    Pastrick, the youngest son of former East Chicago Mayor Robert Pastrick; Carl Ihle Jr., his business partner; and Peter Manous, former chairman of the Indiana Democratic Party, are in prison for their roles in a bribery scheme to influence the pension board of the local carpenters union to vote for and invest $10 million in the purchase of land for the Coffee Creek real estate development south of Chesterton.
