Stupid Criminals: Let's Play Name That Party

So Jabran "Jim" Manna, a West Bloomfield Township Truastee is alleged to have placed cameras and spied on some women in their bedrooms and sent the feeds from the cameras allegedly to his cell phone.

Rather creepy and criminal behavior, that.

MSN/The Detroit News: West Bloomfield trustee hid spy cams in women's bedrooms, prosecutors say

Board of Trustees member Jim Manna has been charged with seven felonies after Oakland County prosecutors said Thursday he hid spy cameras in smoke detectors in two women's bedrooms.

Manna, 65, is charged with two counts of capturing an image of an unclothed person, a five-year felony, and five counts of installing a device for eavesdropping, which carries up to two years in prison.

Two adult women discovered surveillance cameras hidden in smoke detectors in their bedrooms, according to a release from the prosecutor's office....

Nowhere in the article is his political affiliation mentioned.

Nor in this article is his political affiliation mentioned, but it does have a great mugshot photo.

No mention here either, but the mugshot photo is still a great feature.

Nor here.

As one might suspect from the rather uniform omission of his political affiliation as an elected official, this is indeed a case of a (D) thinking with his d. 

Yep, he's a proud member and trustee of the Democrat party.
