A Veritable Rogues Gallery Of Character Witnesses For Embezzler Davis

If you're known by the company you keep, convicted felon Robert Davis should be doing hard time.

Robert Davis, as you may know, is a Detroit Democrat Union activist well known for filing multiple complaints in court any time the union is annoyed about something.  He's also well known for pleading guilty to stealing over $125,00 from the troubled and Democrat-run Highland Park School system.

Now be-clowning themselves with letters to the judge attesting to Davis' good character are such notable Democrat apparatchiks as Geoffrey Fieger, Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garret, and State Rep Philip Cavanagh. They're supporting his attorney's request that Davis  get home release and probation for admittedly stealing over a hundred grand from the poor minority children Democrats always claim to represent. Apparently represent means taking money for the kids and blowing it on personal spending sprees.

Reading the letters, one can clearly see there's no shame in their game, and they seem more upset that he got caught than anything else. 

Most politicians would hate to be associated with known felons, but these are showing quite intimate connections to Davis - including political and fundraising ties.

The Detroit News: Lawyer for Davis seeks probation, home confinement

One can only hope that Judge Tarnow will instead make the sentence appropriate to Davis' brazen theft and breach of the public trust.  Instead of the insane request for probation he should make him an example so that the Democrat Detroit Corruption train finally begins to come to a halt.

One Of The Dumbest Race Card Displays in Detroit History

Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett, in a letter to help Robert Davis get his job back at the AFSCME Union claimed that his prosecution was racially motivated and that the criminal investigation and prosecution for his embezzlement of Highland Park School District funds was an example of

'what a black man in Detroit' is up against,'"

There's a little problem with the rabid waving of the race card in this case -- Davis plead guilty to the embezzlement and admitted to stealing at least $92,000 in Highland Park School District funds.

 So the Wayne County Clerk is backing a convicted felon and denying his felonious ways in the face of all the evidence, including his admission of guilt, to the contrary.

That tells you a little something about the way of the race card in Detroit and how Union Democrats stick together through thick, thin and the theft of public monies.

Detroit Rabble-Rouser Davis Pleads Guilty To Felonies, Goes On To Sue Yet Again

The Detroit Free Press: Davis can sue Detroit council over Orr tenure deal.

As usual, the Freep calls him a "Labor Activist" rather than the far more accurate "Democrat Felon".

Note that Robert Davis is rather infamous around these parts for filing tons of lawsuits on technical grounds to procedurally mess with Republicans and certain Democrat sub-groups in the State. Meanwhile, as part of the Michigan Democrat Deep Blue State corruption craze, he busily ripped off the Highland Park School District while a member of the school board there to the tune of over $180,000, and he's now pled guilty to that crime, but still continues his many lawsuits.

One begins to wonder who Davis is really working for and how deep into Michigan's core blue state he goes to get his marching orders.

So, has The Detroit Free Press done any digging into who is backing Robert Davis and paying this felon's legal bills on these multitude of quixotic lawsuits? These lawsuits that just coincidentally are done for the benefit of core Democrat constituencies? The same constituencies that are supported by the Freep? Yeah, I didn't think so.
