Joseph &#8220;JoJo&#8221; Giorgianni, a top campaign contributor, and six others were also taken into custody. Information on their attorneys wasn&#8217;t immediately available. Specific charges against the suspects are expected to be outlined by Paul Fishman, the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, later Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Mack and the others arrested Monday were brought to the FBI office in Hamilton for processing and are scheduled to appear in federal court.<\/p>\n<p>The arrests are the latest development in an ongoing federal investigation into alleged corruption within Mack&#8217;s administration, which has been marked by accusations of nepotism and reckless spending. In July, FBI agents searched offices in Trenton City Hall a day after raiding the mayor&#8217;s home. They also searched the home of his brother, Ralpiel Mack, and that of Giorgianni.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Mack is listed as one of the New Jersey members of MAIG as seen <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayorsagainstillegalguns.org\/html\/members\/members.shtml#NJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As I said in the headline, what is it with these Illegal Mayors?
