From the Detroit News, we see:
DETROIT — Federal investigators have electronic surveillance evidence that allegedly links Detroit City Council President Pro Tem Monica Conyers with receiving a payment or payments in connection with a city-approved sludge contract, two people familiar with the investigation said.
Conyers — who changed her position from speaking in opposition to the sludge contract to voting in favor of it — and at least one other council member are under FBI investigation in connection with possible bribes related to the $47 million contract with Synagro Technologies Inc. of Houston, one of the people familiar with the investigation said Friday. Bribes allegedly paid to people connected with the city but not members of the City Council also are under investigation, one person said.
I wonder if some enterprisingĀ young reporter isn’t looking atĀ the voting record of husband John Conyers, in relation to all of this?
