This is from WCPO Channel 9 News Sports Director, John Popovich.
Before I came to Cincinnati, I was a news reporter at WOC in Davenport Iowa. I covered a lot of city council and a lot of political stuff.
One of the guys I covered was Ed Mezvinsky, who was the Congressman from Iowa's first district. Seemed like a pretty nice guy, but when he ditched his wife for a New York reporter, the Iowa voters ditched him. My most vivid memory is that he sat on the House Judiciary Committee that was deciding the fate of President Nixon.
Anyway, years later, "Fast Eddie" got caught with his hand in the till. He cheated investors out of more than $10 million dollars.
He went to prison for several years. Released in 2008 after serving five years in federal prison, former congressman Ed Mezvinsky had pleaded guilty to 31 of 69 charges of mail fraud, wire fraud, and bank fraud.
Recently, his son married Chelsea Clinton.
He should fit in well with the other friends of Bill.

Thanks for posting this article.
ReplyDeleteVery enlightening!
It just goes to show how the elites "stick together"
You cannot blame the son for what the father did.
ReplyDeleteThere is no blaming here. It is indicative of how the elitist hierarchy works. Children of elitist individuals marry children of other elitist individuals and then continue to develop elitist attitudes for generations to come.
ReplyDeleteI blieve Americans are tired of eletes and want them out of public office.
