The FBI is initiating a sixth investigation against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s son, according to The Daily Mail. The investigation centers on a San Francisco official who was reportedly persuaded to remove infractions from “The Pit,” a flophouse operated by Paul Pelosi Jr.’s girlfriend. According to a DailyMail.com story earlier this month, Pelosi Jr., 53, has been tied to five previous criminal investigations. This is the sixth pending criminal case. Rodrigo Santos, a former head of the San Francisco Building Inspection Commission and a permit expediter in the city, was charged with fraud in November. Prosecutors allege that he arranged for his customers to pay thousands of dollars in exchange for city licenses in order to develop inspector Bernie Curran’s favorite non-profit, a rugby club.

According to text messages obtained by the feds, one of Santos’ clients, identified only as ‘Client 9’ in the FBI documents, wrote the Golden Gate Youth Rugby Association a $1,500 check to persuade Curran to remove violation notices against a squalid Mission District ‘hotel’ known among building inspectors as ‘The Pit,’ which had a long history of dangerous permit violations. If Pelosi Jr. is the enigmatic “Client 9,” he will be at the heart of a big federal inquiry. FBI investigators have subpoenaed Pelosi Jr. friends, including his ex-girlfriend, and each of them has stated that the FBI agents asked them questions concerning Pelosi Jr.
The feds’ criminal complaint includes a text discussion between “Client 9” and the individual tasked with fixing the permits. “I’ll send the address to Curran.” “He’ll put a stop to it,” Santos stated. “Please drop off a cheque for $1k made out to Golden Gate Youth [Rugby] Association. Bernie’s charity,” the 63-year-old added. “With pleasure,” Client 9 wrote before sharing a snapshot of a $1,500 check and a note saying, “made the gift and it is being mailed today.” “What he was seeking for was how to get rid of Notices of Violation – or get them taken care of,” according to an unnamed building inspector who purportedly revealed a text message conversation with Pelosi Jr.
“I was like, great, if he wants to take me there, I can say, ‘fix this, do this,’ because that’s what I do.” “However, he would never visit the property.” The information I was giving him was straightforward. “But he’d never go there,” he explained. According to Nicole Bulick, another ex-girlfriend of Pelosi Jr., The Daily Mail. She stated that the FBI became interested in Pelosi Jr.’s participation with the property in 2017. “Paul’s been under FBI investigation for this like three times,” the ex-girlfriend said. “Perhaps in the summer of 2017.” “The FBI investigated this for about two years. They also nicknamed me… “He went to the FBI three times,” she explained.
