The Chicago Board of Ethics determined there is probable cause to believe nine candidates running in the Feb. 28 election were found violating the city’s Governmental Ethics Ordinance by using city property in their campaign advertisements.
The admonishment sent Jan. 30 was prompted by a spate of campaign ads showing uniformed Chicago police officers and several complaints, officials said.
U.S. Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García edited his first television advertisement in the race for Chicago mayor on Jan. 25 to remove images of the candidate talking to two uniformed officers while promising to get tough on crime. Nugent, who has been endorsed by the Fraternal Order of Police, declined to answer questions about the warning by the Ethics Board in response to a request from WTTW News.
A spokesperson for the Chicago Police Department told WTTW News the department had launched an internal investigation into Ciaravino based on his ad.It is unclear whether the Ethics Board acted on complaints involving García, Nugent or Ciaravino on Friday.
