Dale Mallory lobbied for CityLink


The Enquirer's Gregory Korte reports that a federal anti-poverty program is reviewing its contract with Dale Mallory - brother of Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory - after discovering he billed the agency for working to bring a controversial social services center to the West End.

Read the full story here.

While Dale in all likelihood did nothing wrong, he probably should have done the meetings with his brother pro-bono.

This family should at the least know the code of professional responsibility and avoid all instances that could have an appearance of impropriety.

This is no big deal, it is really just getting blown out of proportion. What, becuase his brother is Mayor he isn't supposed to talk to him???

The House of Mallory is a house of cards. Billing taxpayers to meet with your own brother? Getting paid to work on something, then endorsing its passage as the president of a Community Council despite the opposition of its member (rather than recusing)?

This is outrageous behavior.

It's amazing that Mallory still says publicly that he lives on Dayton St.

Everyone, starting with those who actually live on Dayton St., knows that it's not true. He should just be honest about it. Bizarre.

From 6-12-06 Editor & Publisher article on RFK's Rolling Stone Ohio election fraud article:

Carl Weiser, government and public affairs editor for the Cincinnati Enquirer, agreed. "I read it and nothing in there was really new," he said. "The folks who know Ohio elections best checked into it and found there was no conspiracy."

NY Times columnist Bob Herbert and others disagree.

Mr. Weiser, how about a post here naming the folks to whom you refer?

Oh, he can talk to him, but, invoice the federal government for it.

That's outragous.

I'm a dem and can smell a rat in this one.

He was the people's choice.

This is just the wRong wing fishwrap attempting to turn another blue district blood letting red.

This is as laughable as (late again)Chris Finney running for cover at the county building today. (or did he have to meet with blowhard hindlick ?)

They must have pulled the numbers out of their as-.

They have no clue !

Old Si probably doesn't even know they are going to cut his funds and send medical dollars to daddy hindlick's house of cards at U.C.

He was cutting Community Council checks in June when he was impeached in February.

I don't think that is a good idea.

Dale always denied being involed with CityLink and supporting for CityLink. I think a hole has been blown wide open in that defense.

Dale Mallory is a hustler. He has never really had to work or hold down a real job and now is in line to "inherit" a state rep. seat. Let's hope voters pay attention. He is the wrong Mallory to run for any political office.l

This is just the tip of the iceberg. The Mallory family is very adept at taking care of itself at taxpayer expense. I hope the Enquirer digs deeper, because there's more there.

Anyone consider why Dale Mallory got a $40,ooo consulting gig with CAA in the first place? What were his qualifications? He is universally regarded as an under-achieving idiot.

And now he's going to inherit his brother and daddy's former House seat becuase the Mayor strong-armed other better qualified Democratic candidates against running, basically saying 'a race against my brother is a race against me.'

Somebody needs to look into the bank accounts and records for the West End Community Council.

Carl Wesier was an incredibly lazy reporter who only reported on the horse race and not issues when he was the Enquirer's Washington bureau reporter. Then he gets promoted to Editor, overseeing lazy reporters like Greg Korte, whose former City Hall beat column read more like a gossip colum. Now Korte reprots to Weiser. To those urging them to dig deeper, i can alomost guarantee they won't. Uncovering the Mallory famly's shady dealings would require serious investigative reporting, but these aren't a couple Edwards Murrow types relentlessly seeking the truth. What a waste.

This IS just the tip of the iceberg. The Korte story did a great job with the "mugshots" showing the criminals Dale does business with.
This is a very complex story and Korte took a small slice of what he knows. This is like chapter one of the Watergate story.
There is the Dale Mallory story, AND there is the CityLink story. I think Korte is still trying to figure out which is the chicken and which is the egg.
CityLink has ties to Heimlich, Burke and Kathy Norris.
Dale Mallory has ties to Heimlich and Tim Burke.
How in the world did Kathy Norris get involved in the EZ?
What did Dale's campaign manager Dan Phonice do for the EZ and how legal is that? It sure isn't ethical.
What is Dale doing working for the EZ on voter registration in Queensgate while running for office????? Seems illegal to me.
What about Dale's taking WECC funds 3 months AFTER he was impeached?
Also, his father gets 1/2 mil EZ money a year.....is this a pork barrel.
Also the Elite Security conection looks like kickback material.
There are other things that stink, but these topics are enough to run many Mallory/CityLink episodes for many months.
And we didn't even get to the City Hall Killer.

Why hasn't Korte asked Mayor Mallory point blank why he pressured Greg Harris and then Sam Herd not to seek this race?

The Dem's told Harris not to run for Council in '05 because they wanted him to run for State Rep. Then the Mayor made it known that he wanted his brother Dale to run, and told Harris, then Herd, then Bolton, that a race against Dale would essentially be a race against the Mayor.

Mayor Mallory said he'd call all the major Dem donors and tell them not to back his brother's opponents. To Bolton's credit, she refused to be initimidated.

At the pre-primary HCDP meeting, the Mallory's put up a Union hack to dissent from the Nominating Committee's recommendation to endorse both Mallory and Bolton, and to instead endorse Mallory. Tim Burke and all the Mallory brothers (who should've recused thmsleves) then voted to endorse Dale. Fortunately, a majority of precinct exec's rejected this and stuck to the Nominating Committee's recommended dual endorsement.

Dale Mallory got less than 50% of the vote in the primary, enough to win a plurality but a horrendous performance for someone whose family represented the district for most of the past 30 years and who has universal name recognition.

Korte and Monk have found the motherload of corruption in the Empowerment Zone, Dale and CityLink.
Dale stole WECC funds, Dale was taking EZ funds to sell out neighbors to CityLink. Dale sues neighbors and police and loses. Dale gets 925 Dayton for free from CMHA and sells it for $25,000 to replace his lost EZ loot. Then Dale issues press release 7/1/6 saying he's a good guy and people are calling him bad names. Poor Dale! Grow up, face the consequences of your illegal behavior and take responsibility for you outrageous actions.
