Report: Former DCFS chief gave deals to friend | abc7chicago.com:

"October 17 ,2011 (WLS) -- Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich hasn't even been sentenced yet and already a new state corruption case is brewing. New allegations of sweetheart deals and do-nothing contracts, many of them through the Department of Children and Family Services, have emerged.

The scandal involves one of Gov. Pat Quinn's holdover appointees from the Blagojevich administration, DCFS Director Erwin McEwen, who mysteriously left state government last month. According to the Illinois Inspector General, McEwen was siphoning millions in state grant money to one of his close friends."

Comment.... Siphoning millions in state grant money to one of his close friends." Not a few thousand but Millions....Did Rod know this and did he get a piece of the action?
