Congressman's (D) Wife Admits Bribe

Post by Col Hogan »

A member of the Detroit City Council and wife of Michigan Congressman John Conyers had entered a guilty plea in a bribery case...44 year old Monica Conyers admitted accepting two envelopes of cash from a representative of Synagro Technologies Inc...
Conyers voted in favor of the wastewater treatment contract on November 20, 2007, the same day she received an envelope filled with cash from Detroit businessman Rayford Jackson, court papers say.

yep... i wanted him out when he was the ranking member... used his post to get his name in the papers more than to pursue a number of questionable activities for the Bush DoJ... and that was aggravating.
