Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Yesterday, U.S. Attorney Ronald Machen announced he would step down in April. The District’s top prosecutor spent four years investigating former D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray’s 2010 mayoral campaign, with six people pleading guilty to federal crimes. Gray has yet to be indicted, leaving questions about the unfinished business of Machen’s office in the wake of this announcement.
