Best part of the article:
“Goel’s scheme was uncovered in an in-depth investigation by reporter Allie Conti in 2019, who detangled the plot after being double-booked at one of his properties in Chicago and receiving a suspicious last-minute cancellation. Conti was contacted by the FBI days after the article was published.”
I wish there was more of this. Good investigative journalism has been one of the most powerful weapons in justice, and I fear it’s diminishing rapidly.

Investigative journalism died the day the local newspapers stopped selling their local markets and became megaphones of a few nationwide companies owned by the same politically well connected donors.
