Detroit Strip Clubs: FBI sting yields tapes on alleged bribes

Riddle made the same claim when questioned by the FBI after Jackson handed him cash at Detroit Metropolitan Airport on Oct. 17, 2007, allegedly to be passed on to Conyers in connection with the Synagro deal, Gardey said in the court filing.
Rosenberg pleaded guilty in 2006 to conspiracy to launder money in connection with illegal marijuana sales. In November, Cohn sentenced him to 30 months in prison after prosecutors asked for leniency because Rosenberg testified against two co-defendants. Cohn recently delayed Rosenberg’s prison reporting date because he was subpoenaed to testify in the Riddle case, court records show.
‘That was good stuff’
Thursday, during an off day in Riddle’s corruption trial, Riddle joked with the lead prosecutor, Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Cares, during a brief hallway encounter.
“You guys are bringing it,” Riddle told Cares, telling him the prosecution had a good day Wednesday when strip club officials accused Riddle of asking for $25,000 in exchange for Conyers’ vote on a strip club license transfer.
