before he resigned. explain what your reporting showed about the mileage reimbursement he got on his personal car. because it is pretty damning stuff. we ve been reporting for about six weeks about many things but specifically the mileage reimbursements. he had a high rate of getting reimbursed from the government and from his campaign accounts for miles he drove. we submitted a freedom of information act request with the state of illinois for all vehicle records and we found when he sold the car that he was driving between 2010 and 2014, it only had 80,000 mile ss on it. he claimed that he had driven about 170,000 miles on it. even if he drove it for exclusively campaign use it would be far less than he submitted. answer i got was not any explanation initially about the reimbursements but the message that he would be resigning effective march 31st. since then, have there been any explanations?
these calls they re getting are credible? how do they decide what leads to chase and how do they chase them? what they ll do is they ll start off by running the names of in all the databases that are available to the fbi and local law enforcement. so they ll start a triage process. from there, they ll try to get further identification. for example, dates of birth, addresses, things of that nature that will be more positive identifiers. they may try to support those with other kind of records. for example, if they get an address, they may look at utility records to see if that matches up, vehicle records, phone records, all these things. it s a multiple layered approach. it s not going to be just one person calling in on an 800 number. that s the start but then there will be a lot of legwork that goes into it before they finally figure out, is this something that needs to be elevated to the next level or is it going to wash out? looking at the video that has been playing on a loop
