This is huge news. This might break the silence in the Strawberry case. Cops might begin to talk if they come to understand that their silence means that they are a part of a cover-up.

From AP Wire:
Government documents suggest the FBI also is investigating possible money-laundering or tax evasion by the ex-mayor.
Kilpatrick, who has been under criminal probe by the Internal Revenue Service, made several cash deposits, which he kept under $10,000 -- the level that would trigger automatic scrutiny by federal bank regulators, the documents reviewed by the Free Press say. The cash was deposited without being reported as income, the records contend. Authorities say Kilpatrick also paid credit card bills with cash.
Griem said the government would likely look closely at possible money laundering when someone makes cash deposits and also pays their bills with cash, particularly if the person is not running a cash-intensive business.
"If there is a pattern of such activities, this will certainly come under the scrutiny of federal investigators," Griem said.
