BREAKING NEWS: Former Detroit City Councilwoman Monica Conyers Sentanced to 37 months in prison for bribe scandal
Hallelujah! There is justice in America!
Former Detroit City Councilwoman Monica Conyers was just sentenced to 37 months with two years supervised probation and no fine.
The 37 months is the top of the sentencing guidelines recommended by the probation department.
Going to Jail! Loudmouth Monica Conyers
Before the sentencing was announced, a strange series of events transpired, highlighted by Conyers’s; request to withdraw her guilty plea. She was screaming that she had her own tapes that would exonerate her before the sentence was announced. She also yelled “What about my children? They did nothing to cause this!” before the sentence announced.
“I would like to withdraw my plea…I shouldn’t go to jail for something I didn’t do,” she said.
She told Judge Avern Cohn that he should read the report from a doctor, where she was sent by the court, and how susceptible she was to badgering. She repeated that this was a doctor that she saw at the direction of the court.
She then repeated: “I’m just not going to jail for something I did not do.”
Cohn said he was satisfied that the guilty plea was voluntary and knowingly given.
If Mrs. Conyers was so worried about her children, she should of thought about them, when she accepted that bribe! I can only imagine what John Conyers is thinking right about now.
Monica Conyers has just been sentenced to 37 months in prison. She also received 2 years of supervised probation. Just before sentencing, Conyers screamed “If they have their tapes, I have my tapes too. I taped Rayford, I taped Riddle. You’ll be fair to me or I want to withdraw my plea.”
