A federal judge sentenced a suburban businessman to probation Tuesday for paying bribes to then-state Sen. Martin Sandoval and McCook Mayor Jeffrey Tobolski.
Vahooman Mirkhaef, a businessman who pleaded guilty to bribery conspiracy, leaves the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse in Chicago on July 26, 2022, after being sentenced to probation.
As part of that scheme, Mirkhaef attended the annual Christmas party at Tobolski’s home, where the mayor had a “gratuity” basket out for businesspeople to put cash donations, according to court records. Prosecutors, though, had asked for 14 months in prison, saying in a recent court filing that public corruption “tarnishes by association the honest public servants who do not act out of self-interest, and it disadvantages honest citizens who refuse to engage in bribery and influence peddling.”
According to his plea agreement, Mirkhaef enlisted Sandoval’s help in 2018 to secure property owned by the Illinois Department of Transportation that was adjacent to his trucking logistics company, Cub Terminal, at 5300 Joliet Road in McCook.
