Description
Three weeks before trial was scheduled to get under way, defendants Callie Mobley and Jimmie Mobley filed a motion to strike what they called "surplusage" in the indictment charging them with conspiring to steal from the Village of Alorton, Illinois. Callie Mobley was Alorton's Mayor, and Jimmie Mobley (her husband) the Village's Street Superintendent. According to the indictment, for several years Callie received more than double the salary to which she was entitled, and Jimmie had Village employees perform extensive remodeling work on the couple's residence and rental properties. The affair is of federal concern because the Village gets more than $10,000 annually in federal grants. See 18 U.S.C. sec.666; United States v. Grossi, 143 F.3d 348 (7th Cir. 1998). The indictment alleged that the conspiracy began in January 1990 and lasted until December 1997.
