In a study taken by the University of Illinois, Chicago is the most corrupt city in America.

“The report is based on data from the justice department, which looked at public corruption convictions between 1976 and 2019.”

The city had almost 1800 convictions, more than Los Angeles which had the second-highest. New York placed third.

“Former Ald. Willie Cochran (20th Ward) pleaded guilty in June 2019 to wire fraud in connection with allegations he used a charitable fund for personal expenses. Cochran was sentenced to a year and a day in prison.”
