Jay Johnson: Joe Moore's Best Man?
The Bench broke the story of Joe Moore's wedding.
More info leaks out, bit by bit. For example:
Jay Johnson was a guest at the "close friends and relatives only" wedding ceremony just over two weeks ago. Johnson used to be on Moore's infamous zoning committee. He is hated wide and far for allegedly contributing to conditions that led to the deaths of six children in a fire in one of his Rogers Park rental properties. Dunno if Johnson was Joe's best man or not.
But here's another little tidbit: A source tells The Bench that it was weird how many men at the secret wedding had "little mustaches." When asked what that meant, the source put two fingers point down from nose to upper lip, indicating a Hitler-like moustache.
"No," I said to the source, "you're kidding."
"No," said the source, "really." And we busted up laughing, even though the thought of a roomful of that style of mustache scared the hell out the both of us.
Little by little, the whole guest list will come out. Hint at another guest: Supreme.
