Ex-Detroit Councilwoman and convicted felon Monica Conyers is spending her work days filling out paperwork and answering phones.
A manager at Metro Tech Collision in Detroit told WWJ Newsradio 950 Conyers is a very hard worker and has been humble in her new role. She was hired two months ago when she left a halfway house.
Conyers entered prison in 2010 after pleading guilty in 2009 to taking bribes while on the Detroit council. She was released in late December after serving 27 months at Alderson Federal Prison Camp, often referred to as “Camp Cupcake.”
Conyers remains under house arrest and her boss said she’s not allowed to talk to the media.
What's my point? Here are a few facts missing from this report.
Monica Conyers was a Democrat president of the Detroit city council.
Monica Conyers is the wife of Rep John Conyers, (D), ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, and a man involved in investigations as well.
Monica Conyers was the Council's staunchest and firmest defender of now convicted former Detroit Democrat Mayor Kilpatrick.
And I could go on. I ask you, Partners, do you reckon if there was an 'R' after her name, and she was married to the Republican Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee --- that these facts would go UNMENTIONED in this report.
I think not!
