America's Most Liberal City Amuses Us Once Again

The former Director of Detroit Public Schools Department of Risk Management used his position to funnel $57 Million to associates who provided nothing to the school district in return.

Documents in a Wayne County Circuit Court lawsuit brought by DPS allege that Stephen Hill of Detroit — director of DPS risk management from 2001-05 — received luxury vehicles and other kickbacks. Some of the vendors who benefitted were friends or associates of Hill's or relatives of Hill's assistant, Christina Polk-Osumah of Detroit, court records allege.

When Hill left the district in September 2005, he received a champagne-and-tenderloin farewell bash that cost the impoverished school system $40,000, according to the suit.

You didn't really think Monica Conyers and Kwame Kilpatrick's were aberrations, did you? Corruption is not a side-effect of progressive left government, corruption is the point of progressive left government. Why do you think the progressives are so eager to get their meat-hooks into health care?

Invest in public schools, corrupt bureaucrats are counting on you.
