Near the end of a yearslong scheme to scam hundreds of thousands of dollars out of Bloomingdale Township, its road commissioner visited the Elgin shop of his alleged fellow schemer, who then showed off his collection of toy trucks upstairs.
Former Bloomingdale Township Highway Commissioner Robert Czernek said that man, Mario Giannini, “had to have hundreds of trucks up there.” He told Giannini, “This looks expensive.”
