OK, there's some kind of misunderstanding here: I wrote: 'She goes so far as to claim that certain developers have lied to the government to collect funds for which they are not entitled. '
Ms. Heller responds: "It's not that easy to prosecute Jim, because when governmental entities are involved, frauds are called "mistakes." " Mr. Meldah responds: Over the last 4 years, we have gone to the authorities with criminal evidence against 2 management members of the Mpls Inspections office And I respond: Let's try to stay on the same page. I wasn't TALKING about prosecuting government agencies. Ms. Heller is making charges about OTHER DEVELOPERS. And it seems to me, given what happened to Brian Herron and Joe Biernat that there is MORE than enough will to prosecute DFLers on charges of fraud, extortion or whatever. Once again, let me suggeset you had "evidence", but it was FLIMSY evidnece. It takes a little bit more than personal aggravation to make a charge stick. Consider the possibility your evidence was short of a full case. ALSO consider the possibility that when ONE developer calls another "criminal", many people will smell sour grapes.
