Federal prosecutors asked a judge to give a 19-month prison sentence to former Teamsters boss John T. Coli Sr.
Federal prosecutors Wednesday asked a judge to give a 19-month prison sentence to former Teamsters boss John T. Coli Sr., who pleaded guilty in an extortion case but then cooperated against former state Sen. Thomas Cullerton.
Coli once allegedly bragged that, "you can cut my fingers off, I wouldn't talk" about money he'd collected through extortion. But that was late in 2016, months before his 2017 indictment. A federal inquiry into the diamond engagement ring bought for Quinn's press secretary was also tied to the investigation that snared Coli, the Chicago Sun-Times has reported.
Pissios began feeding law enforcement information about Coli in June 2016, according to an FBI affidavit first obtained by the Sun-Times. He told the feds he'd begun making quarterly payments of $25,000 in 2014 that were drawn from a petty cash account, according to the affidavit.
