Conyers, the wife of powerful Democratic congressman U.S. Rep. John Conyers, appeared before Cohn to answer charges in connection with the wide-ranging probe of wrongdoing at Detroit city hall.

She has long been under suspicion in the Synagro Technologies bribery probe, not least because she had been a vocal opponent of the contract before suddenly switching her sentiments. She became the deciding voice in the city council’s 5-4 vote to approve the sludge-hauling deal in November 2007.

“This is not the beginning and it is certainly not the end, folks,” FBI Special Agent in Charge Andy Arena said at a news conference this morning.

Arena said the message to corrupt public officials is, “We’re coming after you.”

Ya, we are coming after you, as long as you are a member of city or state government. Congress? Naw, they control our budget, so we will just leave them alone.

Oh, he knew. But there's nothing quite as good as selling the ol ball and chain out when you go down, too.

agreed, on both sides......IMHO, if the FBI investigated everyone in Congress we would, probably, be left with nobody. Not a bad idea to start again.

seriously, i hope this guy does not get fired like the IG who investigated one of B.Hussain Obama's cronnies.
