Jim Graham Says He Didn't Do It

Here is the latest from Councilmember Jim Graham on the scandal involving his Chief of Staff, Ted Loza. And in case you missed it - the City Paper's coverage of the Graham/Loza relationship: http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/citydesk/2009/09/30/jim-grahams-ties-to-ted-loza-included-abortion/.

Dear Friends,

In regards to the recent arrest of Teddy Loza, we should all be patient while the authorities conduct their investigation. Corruption is a very serious matter. As much as anyone else, I want this investigation to be thorough and all guilty parties held to account. I have pledged 100% cooperation to the FBI.

I have committed no wrongdoing or crime.

Please also keep in mind that the Washington Post on September 30 (linked here<http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/09/29/AR2009092903638.html?sid=ST2009092403248>) reported-based on law enforcement sources-- that I am neither a "target" nor a "person of interest" in the FBI investigation.

Bests Councilmember Jim Graham
