Freeloadin’ Alonzo Bates in court
Former Detroit city council member Alonzo Bates is on trial for playing fast and loose with public money. Bates put his fingers in the public piggy to spend on personal projects such as a new roof for his house, lawn maintenance and snow removal. He also played Big Daddy when he laced his girlfriend’s daughter with college cash. His lawyers insist he isn’t a crook….just a freeloader.

hahahah when I heard this today, the commentator said that the roofer “put a $7800 roof on Mr. Bates’ home not because they were offered any kickbacks, but BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO.”
hahahahah nice.

How dare Mr. Bates utter Ku Klux Klan after the verdict was read. He has been stealing from every government agency for the last twenty years. The City, Board of Education and City Council.
Thank God he was finally stopped.
