Alderman dated Gang Leader

By Rachelle Bowden in News on May 24, 2004 11:46AM

2005_5_troutman_jehan.jpgAs if Alderman Arenda Troutman wasn't in enough hot water, her brother is now telling the press that she was having a romantic relationship with Donnell Jehan, a fugitive who is second-in-command of the Chicago gang, the Black Disciples. Troutman's brother says that Arenda and Jehan spent a lot of time together last year and that they were lovers. So maybe that's how the letter addressed to Troutman from the Chicago Police Department ended up at Jehan's house and was found during an FBI raid. Maybe she accidentally left it there after a hot date. This is getting steamy!
