Ravenstahl, I think is history. I no longer live in the city of Pittsburgh, but if I drive 1 mile I am in the city. I lived in the city for 43 years. I've no the Mayor since he was about 13. I also know the former Chief of Police and have worked with him. I'm hoping for the best for the ex-Chief. Only time will tell
The mayor's bodyguards were using the credit cards that have been linked to the bank account(s) at the credit union that are being investigated. He has also stated that he knew his bodyguards had these cards, but didn't know where the money was coming from to pay for the charges. 
The mayor has made some bad decisions during his term(s). Being out of town, celebrating his birthday during the bad snowstorms of 2011, some bad advisors, some bad hiring decisions. Living on the south side for awhile, which is a neighborhood that he now has to send police into on the weekends because of fights, shootings, underage drinking, etc. While he lived on the south side he was seen in the bars partying on the weekends.
You know he's in trouble, when he brings his son (3 years old) to news conferences and other public appearances. We haven't seen his son during the past 3 years. His son lives with Luke's ex-wife
