Fox 11: Mayor's tickets now an ethics investigation



John Schwada follows up his original report on Mayor Villaraigosa's free tickets with a story last night saying the ethics commission has requested records from the mayor's office, including emails. Villaraigosa says he's confident the rules allow him to take courtside tickets to the Lakers and to other events for free and to not report those that are tied to some official duty. Schwada says the mayor's list of 81 events he attended leaves a lot out.
