The Cullen Inquiry: IGET We Hardly Knew Thee.

Former GordCo, Inc. and Clarklandian 'Minister of Everything', Rich Coleman, dismantled the 'Illegal Gambling Enforcement Team' (IGET) in 2009.

This is what the Mr. Coleman told Sean Holman in 2010:

"I had a team that wasn't working (i.e. in 2009) and it was costing the taxpayers money. I decided to do it differently and get better results."


And as a result of those 'better results' the following, according to Ian Mulgrew in the VSun,  is what happened in 2012:

...The Cullen Commission of Inquiry into Money Launderingheard Wednesday that apparently, at its height, casinos were swamped with $63 million in the first nine months of 2012 alone — $44 million in $20 bills...


Gosh.

That's a lot of hockey bags.

Personally, I am of the opinion that the video of the interview that Mr. Holman conducted with Mr. Coleman back in 2010 should be, at the very least, Exhibit 1A at the Inquiry...

And when Coleman and the Liberals skate on any culpability what happens then ?
Back to "normal" with the Kleptocracy.

That's why that video should be Exhibit 1A.
