David Krupa, who as a teenager in 2019 ran for alderman in the 13th Ward, contended he was the target of intimidation and harassment.
David Krupa, then 19, when he was running for 13th Ward alderman, appears at his attorney's office in Skokie on Dec. 6, 2018.
The lawsuit is separate from the federal criminal case filed in March in which Madigan is charged with racketeering and bribery tied to utility giant Commonwealth Edison, a case in which the dethroned Illinois House speaker has pleaded not guilty. Ald. Marty Quinn, 13th, attends the council meeting as Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel chairs his first full meeting of the City Council on May 18, 2011.
But the political tactic from Quinn’s team that drew the most attention was the all-out push to get voters to revoke their signatures on Krupa’s nominating petitions. Krupa called it a “sheer fraud.” “One can only imagine how they felt when they realized that their attempts to railroad Krupa had gotten them nowhere,” the judge continued. “It must have been deflating to see 2,609 phony revocations go down the drain.”
