City of Miami: is Spence Jones finally going down for the count? by gimleteye

What a sad spectacle that Miami and Miami-Dade's inner city districts continue to be pulled down by local elected officials. The news in the Herald today is that the long running investigation of Spence Jones turned on cooperation by the former county commissioner, Barbara Carey Shuler. Too bad it didn't happen before the Marlins' stadium votes.

Commissioner Angel Gonzalez Going. By Geniusofdespair

The Miami Herald said, "Miami Commissioner Angel Gonzalez, facing a criminal probe, has agreed to resign before the end of the year as part of a deal with prosecutors, several sources say."

There will be 3 new Commissioners on the dais (4 if the current probe of Spence-Jones bears fruit). City of Miami Commission Chair Marc Sarnoff might be the most powerful man in the City of Miami soon.
