Alderman Helen Shillers son, and has been in the news most recently for his lobbying
activities on behalf of VIPs Gentlemans Club billed as Chicagos only full liquor and
topless bar and Custom Strains, a proposed marijuana dispensary
(http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20141003/west-loop/strip-club-owner-aims-openmedical-marijuana-dispensary-west-loop).
7th Ward Alderman candidate Keiana Barrett has paid Brendan Shillers political
consulting business Shiller Blaise Political Consulting at least $5,691.15 since 8/2/2014
(http://elections.il.gov/CampaignDisclosure/CommitteeDetail.aspx?id=25857).
Additionally, Keiana Barrett admitted in her testimony that Shiller is her election lawyer
and that she works as a political consultant for Shiller Blaise Political Consulting. Barrett
also testified extensively with respect to her method of collecting signatures, and upon
completion of her testimony, even objectors (and Keiana Barretts) attorney Brendan
Schiller conceded and said on the record that Keiana Barrett was not a credible witness.
Today were calling on Keiana Barrett to end her campaign of intimidation and political
shenanigans. We believe that the election should be decided based on who has the best
ideas for moving the 7th ward forward, not based on who has the most politically
connected lobbyists, consultants, and armed investigators.
