Minneapolis city council member in FBI probe

Rambix has previously posted on the lengthy democrat/liberal criminal list in "Minnesota Democrat criminal list grows". Quite stunning, actually. Now we may get to add another one, this time from the Green Party, as the KSTP news reports here.

Of course, at this early stage, there is no indication Dean Zimmerman has done anything wrong. On the other hand, having the FBI and Minneapolis police raid your home would not make most people's list of best ways to spend an evening.

If criminal activity is found, this would make the 3rd Minneapolis City council member in as many years to find himself on the business end of the law. There are a couple others in the past that have managed to slither away before their questionable activities could be scrutinized by authorities, but two have actually made their way to prison.

We've said this before dozens of times, and we'll say it again. This is what happens when liberals own the city government lock, stock and barrel. It will be very interesting to see (1) how this plays out, and (2) how the Red Star will spin it.

By the way, isn't Zimmerman the freak who wanted to be called "Zimmerperson"?

UPDATE:

The Red Star reports here:

Federal agents executed a search warrant at the home of Minneapolis City Council member Dean Zimmermann today. Zimmermann, a Green party member who is seeking re-election, was not available for comment, but his campaign manager, Lauren Maker, said the agents spent three hours at his home.

The Red Star gives a little more info than KSTP at this point:

Maker said the agents confiscated everything relating to Zimmermann's campaign, including financial records and a pre-primary mailing in process. Maker said the agents told her the affidavit attached to the warrant was sealed, so she was unable to explain the purpose of the search.

But Maker also said the agents took Zimmermann's personal financial records as well.
