His party affiliation isn’t noted, of course. So I can assume he’s a Democrat.

This DEMOCRAT has a school in Detroit, Bates Academy, named after him. Its part of taxpayer funded Detroit Public Schools. I wouldn’t bet that the name will be changed because of his conviction.

He also got 33 months in prison. Of course, he’ll spend it playing poker with the guys he went to school with, who let him use their soc’ numbers. ;’)
