John Conyers III arrested but not prosecuted in domestic abuse case
NBC News ^

LOS ANGELES — John Conyers III, a Detroit hedge fund manager named as a possible successor to his scandal-rocked father, Rep. John Conyers, was arrested in Los Angeles this year on suspicion of domestic violence, but prosecutors declined to charge him, according to documents obtained by NBC News.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office cited a "lack of independent witnesses" and their conclusion that it "could not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the victim’s injury was not accidentally sustained" while he was disarming her, according to case paperwork.

This guy USED to be into rap in a huge way. In a single song he would scream the F-word OVER 50 times. AND he would do all that other stupid bragging stuff.

Reminds me a lot of that Rush parody commercial of that NBA guy who turned into a criminal and tried to make it in rap.

Why do all rappers have to wave their hand out in front of them while rapping?

Just a little domestic abuse?

That’s mere peanuts, a mere bag of shells, for a Sinator... we know how to make a REAL Sinator here in MA.

In Detroit a criminal record is high on the list of political qualifications. He’s a shoo-in to fill his Dad’s office.

"Hedge Fund Manager"? You mean like with real Monopoly money and a "get out of jail" card?

I'm sure it's a Chelsea Clinton type a job. Probably a payoff to Conyers Senior for some bribe favor.

Yeah; the apple/tree thing was the first thing that popped into my mind.

You KNOW there’s so much more out there.
