City pension officials have been hit with subpoenas from a federal grand jury trying to determine how they decided to invest $68 million with a start-up company co-owned by Mayor Daley’s nephew.
The grand jury issued the subpoenas Wednesday, nearly two months after city pension officials refused to comply with similar subpoenas issued by the city of Chicago’s inspector general, David Hoffman.
Hoffman said Friday that he and federal investigators are now jointly investigating the pension fund investments with DV Urban Realty Partners, co-owned by Daley’s nephew Robert Vanecko and one of the mayor’s top African-American allies, Allison S. Davis.

U.S. attorney says business could help cut murder rate, hire teens as interns
U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald stood before a room packed with business officials Thursday and asked them to do something they probably have never considered:
Hire felons
Not exactly the kind of request you’d expect from the area’s top federal law enforcement official, who’s better known for locking up criminals.
But Fitzgerald told the audience that while law enforcement targets the worst of the worst, the community needs to get more involved — especially the business community — to help drive down murder numbers and keep kids out of gangs.
Fitzgerald, speaking at a City Club of Chicago luncheon, said on any given day there are 4,000 Chicago Police officers on the streets and an estimated 70,000 to 100,000 gang-bangers in the city.
“How in the world can we incarcerate our way out of the problem when we are outnumbered that much?” Fitzgerald said.
Part of the answer, he said, lies with corporations, who can help sponsor after-school programs or enlist teenagers from the projects to be summer interns — or even hire felons.
