Muskegon Heights Corruption Probe | Detroit News

Federal agents are hitting Muskegon Heights, Michigan, with a major corruption probe targeting City Manager Shawn Roberson, his business partner Javon Brewer, and recently-clemency-granted drug dealer Lakento Smith. The raid on City Hall and ongoing investigations center on Roberson’s real estate deals and Brewer’s alleged ties to a cocaine trafficking network — with a lien now on Brewer’s home. Smith, who had his sentence commuted, now faces new money laundering charges for funneling $130K from Houston to Michigan. This rare public corruption case could unravel a hidden drug pipeline connecting Texas to Michigan’s streets. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
