Ah, the ‘more’ starts to come out.
Via Daily Mail:
The FBI has launched an investigation to determine if an animal rights group behind Bill de Blasio’s controversial pledge to ban carriage horses in Central Park had tried to extort his opponent Christine Quinn.
Sources familiar with the federal probe told the New York Daily News that agents have been questioning people about the pledge made in March 2013.
The ongoing investigation also reportedly revolves around a $175,000 donation made by a union linked to Mayor de Blasio’s cousin John Wilhelm to the animal rights group NYCLASS, which has championed the ban on carriage horses.
