Another day another political scandal. I yawn at this stuff, now. So long as its being investigated and going through the courts, I can't be bothered to keep up with all of this crap already brought to the justice system, and I'm certainly not going to let it raise my blood pressure. The local media is certainly happy in helping to create this overdramatic political theater [["and he claims he's got the emails to prove it.").
Corrupt politician/official is corrupt. In other news, the sky is blue and water is wet.

Judge: Airport Authority Violated State Act in Hiring Ex-CEO Mullin
So they violated the Open Meetings Act on the front end, and now Mullin's suit will determine if they violated it on the back end.Quote:
The Detroit Metropolitan Airport Authority violated the state's Open Meetings Act during the hiring of its now-fired chief executive, according to a Wayne County Circuit Court judge...
Colombo's ruling, in response to an activist challenging meetings held by the Airport Authority that led to Mullin being hired, does not invalidate her hiring.
Turkia Awada Mullin not owed a penny, lawsuit alleges
http://www.freep.com/article/2011122...awsuit-allegesQuote:
Turkia Awada Mullin doesn't deserve anything after being fired as CEO of Metro Airport because her employment contract was illegal, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.
Labor activist Robert Davis filed the suit in Wayne County Circuit Court, asking a judge to invalidate not only Mullin's contract, but the airport's contract with Trustinus, the Southfield-based search firm that interviewed candidates last summer before the board selected Mullin for the $250,000-a-year job.
ROTFL! This was all so OBVIOUS! 'Friends and Family' deal gone bad due to folks being greedy and in the end acting indignant for being 'called out' on it.Quote:
