Lori's Security Connected? (UPDATE)

Hey investigative reporters - tips and clues:

• I can't find an active PERC registration for James M. Smith in Illinois. If correct, he best be not providing security or "protection" for hire. Didn't check for blue card, tan card, private detective. Somebody smarter than me best look into this matter.

No idea if this is true, but easily fixable in this crooked city, county and state.

This, not so much:

• It's the same old song and dance.....it's all clout.....Smith's wife is a Houlihan....Do some digging......her Dad was big time politician in the 70's and 80's. He was the Cook county assessor for years and a state rep.....he was also tied to old man Daley and the 19th ward. And his security company was incorporated less than a year ago with 0 employees or contracts. This was all planned.

Looking more and more like the Old Daley (Sr) Machine is alive and well.

Still better than Prickwrinkle though.

UPDATE: some sort of outage occurred between 0530 and 0630 hours this morning. If you posted a comment earlier, it might not have survived. Apologies - we're looking into it.
