I was wondering what happened with this case.
In other words, taking hundreds of thousands of dollars out of the budget and paying them to himself aren't embezzlement -- if your cronies in the McNamara machine know about it.
If we had a just society, people like Blackwell would be riding a rail out of town.
All of this may have been avoided if Granholm & Co had came clean about what they knew from the very beginning.

I agree. But wasn't that EFM also the one who green-lighted that shoddy development that's practically vacant and falling apart now? I could be wrong. On the main, I have to say, there was no reason but patronage to install Blackwell there. He can take a long walk off a short pier for all I care.Quote:

I'll be the first to admit that I thought he was the worst pick Granholm could have made since the guy has pretty much had corruption charges follow him everywhere he's gone.
Wasn't he getting paid twice for doing the same job?
