The Detroit News
State Rep. Alberta Tinsley-Talabi took a Caribbean trip, campaign cash and a donation from a businessman while supporting his $10 million city pension fund deal, The Detroit News has learned.
Federal court records chronicle the trip and payments from indicted Georgia businessman Roy Dixon in 2007, when Tinsley-Talabi was a city councilwoman and trustee on the Detroit Police & Fire pension board.
The Detroit Democrat has not been charged in the widening, years-long federal probe of City Hall corruption and the city's pension funds that has resulted in two dozen convictions, including Tinsley-Talabi's former colleague, ex-City Council President Monica Conyers.
Tinsley-Talabi did not return multiple phone messages, but one former colleague said he's disappointed by the disclosure.

Wasn't the Hathaway Family disappointed when caught, too? Feh. Whatever. I asked before, and I'll state it clearly this time... Michigan's Socialist do not care as long as their agenda incrementally moves - Forward!
Oh, is that "forward" reference considered profiling? I guess that's just too damn Fabian Socialist in America bad.
