During a conversation Solis reportedly recorded on Aug. 18, 2014, Madigan told the developer whose law business he sought, “We’re not interested in a quick killing here. We’re interested in a long-term relationship.” Solis later told an associate of the developer that “if he (the developer) works with the speaker, he will get anything he needs for that hotel,” according to the report. On Aug. 21, the developer’s associate called Solis to say the developer had agreed to retain Madigan’s law firm. Five days later, Solis reportedly wrote a letter of support for the hotel. But when an FBI agent filed the affidavit in 2016, the developer hadn’t retained Madigan’s firm. The City Council did approve a zoning change for the hotel, but it hasn’t been built.
