Is US Atty Trying to Peel Emerald Casino Grape?

A year ago Parkway Bank Chairman Rocco Suspenzi refused to tell the state Gaming Board "about his role in secretly splitting up an investment in the now-defunct Emerald Casino with at least one man the FBI has claimed associated with members of organized crime,” according to the Chicago Tribune reporter John Chase.

Now, another Suspenzi is in more serious trouble.

Here’s the beginning of the U.S. Attorney’s press release today:

A former bank officer was charged today with fraud and federal income tax offenses for allegedly obtaining nearly $500,000 from a customer’s credit line and converting the money to his own use. The defendant, Jeffrey Suspenzi, was charged with one count of bank fraud and two counts of filing false individual income tax returns in a three-count criminal information filed today in U.S. District Court, announced Patrick J. Fitzgerald, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois.

Suspenzi, 34, of South Elgin and formerly of Palatine, was an assistant vice president of Parkway Bank and Trust Company, based in Harwood Heights.
It seems likely that the two Suspenzi’s are related, so could this be a way of prying information out of bank Chairman Rocco Suspenzi?

That goofy female Mayor who wants to be Betty Lorn Maltese and that whole goofy board in Harwood Heights is hilarious. They are a real embarassment. That Zitella project is not good for Harwood Heights.

That is Margaret "Peggy" Fuller, she has no formal education, is arrogant, ignorant and rude. Trustee Duffy was uneducated also.
Alex has a good education but is completely psychotic and dangerous, every woman in the office was afraid of him.
Mark Dobyczki supposedly has an education but is so ignorant of basic law and finance it is very humorous. This idiot thinks he can beat Michael McAulliffe. Harwood Heights has become an incompetent and higher tax joke.

Harwood Heights has raised taxes since Fuller and is arrogant. Really screwed up sewers and water.
