Detroit Strip Clubs: US attorney: We won’t be rushed on Detroit corruption case

More bribery allegations involving Conyers have emerged in a federal lawsuit by owners of the Zoo Bar strip club against the city over denial of a request for transfer of a liquor license in 2006.
Lawyers for the club said in a May 11 filing company representatives received a solicitation for a $25,000.00 bribe in order to obtain the vote of Monica Conyers on its license transfer request at a Nov. 15, 2006, meeting. The filing said then-Conyers aide Sam Riddle conveyed the request.
The filing said club representatives refused payment. Conyers voted against the transfer request, which failed. The filing said there were further bribe solicitations made through Mr. Riddle, which were tied to a vote reconsideration but said they also were refused.

Riddle has said the bribery claims are false. Theyre grasping for straws to keep their strip club open, he told WDIV-TV.

Detroit Escorts: A Comedy to Inspire Premise Envy

Actually, Ms. Burson used another term that cannot be published here. In fact, such effort is being made here to write this story without violating propriety or without slipping in a few sophomoric double entendres that the words being muttered at this very moment make Ms. Burson’s original term seem almost Psalm-like.
Now back to the kitchen conversation. So Ms. Burson says, wouldn’t it be great if the down-on-his-luck-regular-guy protagonist had a big penis? To which her husband, Dmitry Lipkin, immediately gives a name to this imaginary show: “Hung.”
These two professional writers giggle, eat their raw salad with chopped-up carrots and before long sell this concept to HBO. Next Sunday will offer the premiere of a comedy about a teacher in Michigan. Once a star athlete who seemed destined for success, he is divorced, separated from his children and so financially strapped that he is camping outside the fire-damaged home inherited from his parents. Heeding the words of a motivational speaker, he vows to capitalize on his greatest asset (see above) and decides to become a male prostitute.

DETROIT — A local attorney has filed a federal lawsuit claiming City Council President Pro-tem Monica Conyers and her former aide Sam Riddle bribed his clients for approval to open a downtown Detroit strip club.
Brad Shafer said his clients needed the City Council’s approval to transfer the licenses and permits.
Shafer said Riddle approached his clients and asked for money to get Conyers’ vote.

“If they paid $25,000, they would get Monica Conyers’ vote,” said Shafer.
Shafer said his client’s denied the offer.
The vote was split and Conyers voted against it when the issue came up at the city council meeting.

“They’re grappling for straws to keep their strip clubs operating in Detroit. They’re looking for a fall guy,” Sam Riddle told Local 4. “It ain’t going to be Sam Riddle. Get a new fall guy, champs.”

Detroit Escorts: Pelosi throws support behind Rep. Conyers

… He has oversight in the broadest sense,” Bositis said. “If someone said he needed to recuse himself, I think it’d be seen as partisan. No one would take that seriously.”
The House has spent today in a marathon series of votes, and Conyers has been on the floor voting.
Several Michigan members said in interviews today that knowledge about Conyers’ wife doesn’t yet seem to be widespread in the Congress.
But they added that they couldn’t imagine a scenario where a lawmaker would suffer consequences in the House over a criminal matter involving a spouse or other relative.
In April 2008, for example, Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Lansing, went onto the floor and delivered speeches as usual on the day news broke that her husband had hired a prostitute. Stabenow’s husband, Thomas Athans, was not charged with a crime, and Stabenow didn’t suffer any political consequences in the wake of the scandal.
