DETROIT (AP) After three days of trial, a Detroit political consultant charged with corruption seems impressed with the government’s case.
Outside court Thursday, Sam Riddle told a prosecutor, “You guys are bringing it.”
Riddle is charged with seeking bribes from people who had business at the Detroit City Council or the city pension board. He’s accused of conspiring with his boss, Monica Conyers, when she was on the council.
Strip club managers told jurors Wednesday that Riddle hit them up for $25,000 to get Conyers’ support for a license transfer. They declined.
There was no testimony Thursday in Riddle’s trial, which could last another three weeks.
Conyers pleaded guilty last summer and is awaiting a sentence.
