| Monica Conyers' sentence pushed to March from Jan. |
| 2009-12-16 |
| It will be about three more months before former Detroit City Council member Monica Conyers gets her punishment for public corruption. The federal judge in the case postponed her sentence to March 10 from Jan. 15. It's the second delay. No specific reason was given. Conyers took cash for her vote on a city sludge contract. She pleaded guilty to conspiracy last summer. The maximum punishment is five years in prison. Conyers is the wife of U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. |
