Karl Rove must be laughing his ass off :laugh2:
It looks like Detroit’s ghetto fabulous Councilwoman, Monica Conyers, whom I previously blogged about HERE will soon be facing federal indictment. BlackAmericaWeb reports Conyers, wife of U.S. Rep. John Conyers, is under investigation by the FBI and could be indicted this month.
According to the Detroit Free Press, “Conyers has been the subject of scrutiny in the FBI’s investigation of a multimillion-dollar sludge removal contract awarded last November to Synagro Technologies of Houston. Conyers was critical of the contract in hearings leading up for the vote, then cast the deciding yes vote for Synagro when the deal passed 5-4 on Nov 20.”
The FBI looking into whether city officials and others – including Bernard
Kilpatrick, the father of Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, accepted bribes to ensure approval of the Synagro contract.
This latest saga momentarily deflects attention from Detroit’s ‘Cassanova’ Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick.
“It’s been the talk of the town,” a Detroit political observer told BlackAmericaWeb.com. “The councilwoman has problems.” SOURCE
