“The report is based on data from the justice department, which looked at public corruption convictions between 1976 and 2019,” the outlet said.
In that time period, the city had almost 1800 convictions, more than Los Angeles which had the second highest. New York came in third.
The university’s annual report, co-authored by professor Dick Simpson, also said Illinois is the third-most corrupt state, according to WTTW.
In 2019, there were 26 public corruption convictions in the Northern District of Illinois, which includes all of Chicago and the northern third of Illinois — double the number recorded in 2018, according to the report. The rest of the state had six additional public corruption convictions in 2019 for a state total of 32, according to Simpson’s findings based on the most recent DOJ data available.
