John Conyers Son and Heir Apparent Arrested for Felony Domestic Violence
TMZ ^ | 12/6/17 | Staff

Posted on 12/06/2017 4:25:26 PM PST by x1stcav

John Conyers' son -- the one he wants to replace him in Congress -- was arrested this year for felony domestic violence ... TMZ has learned.

John Conyers III got in a fight with his girlfriend on February 15, 2017. Law enforcement sources tell us he accused her of cheating after going through her computer at around 2 AM. The argument allegedly escalated into physical violence ... she told cops John body slammed her on her bed and on the floor, pinned her down and spit on her. She says she tried calling the cops, but he took her phone.

The woman claims he then chased her into her kitchen where she grabbed a 10-inch knife to protect herself, ordering him to leave the house.

She says he grabbed the knife and then swung at her twice, stabbing her, cutting her right bicep which required 3 stitches. She says he then chased her back into the bedroom, pinned her against the bed and slapped her.

They both called 911 and when cops came John claimed she pulled a knife on him and, when he grabbed it to protect himself, he accidentally stabbed her.

Most voters in that district won’t even know they aren’t voting for his son.

It even happens in the Republican cornfields of Indiana. A County Surveyor here rode his Daddy’s name for several election cycles until enough people realized Daddy was dead and son is an absolute moron.

Right. So he has suction. Or juice. Or whatever you want to call it, inside the state to put pressure on his cousin (Conyer’s son). I am not saying he did anything - if the kid beat his wife he deserves to be arrested. But in politics it can get very dirty no matter the district or the seat in play. If you can get your opponent arrested (or paid off as happened in Philly recently) it’s game of thrones time.

Quite honestly it doesn’t matter. She could have stabbed herself, told the police it was him and they would have taken him regardless. In today’s society and in any domestic dispute the man is almost assuredly the one that will be stuck in the pokey

His son? Would the son run against the grand nephew? Hahahahahahaha.

Conyers is the last relic of the 60’s and finishes third on the all time House parasite list behind Dingell and Jamie Whitten.

Meanwhile Nevada Rat Rep Rueben Kihuen says he won’t resign.

Sounds like Conyers senior wasn’t a very good father.
