The police chief and the building inspector in Summit have been charged in a bribery scheme related to a liquor license at a bar run by a politically connected drug dealer in the southwest suburb — the latest case to emerge from the federal government’s ongoing political corruption investigations in Chicago and the suburbs.
The federal charges were lodged against Summit Police Chief John Kosmowski and building inspector William Mundy, a long-time political operative who also serves as Summit’s public works director.
