Mayor’s Fraud – From 51% to 0% Veteran-Owned Business

| November 15, 2023


The mayor of Eastpointe (Michigan) pleaded ‘No Contest’ for fraud in connection with a false claim of operating a veteran-owned business – named ‘Naturally Funny Talent Agency.’ Monique Owens never served in the military but falsely claimed her business was 51% veteran-owned.

The judge sentenced Owens to six months non-reporting probation and 100 hours of community service at a nonprofit organization.


Six months non-reporting probation sounds like a real deterrent.

Think” All-Points Logistics next diversity hire”.

Just a felony, no big… she can still hire people to be armed security.

This is some fucking Phil Monkress and All-Points Logistics shit right here.

That 6 months of non-reporting probation is really going to serve as a deterrent. I bet she learned her lesson from that.

And I’ll bet that she’s still smirking, just like in her photo posted above.

Especially after the very light slap on the wrist, no harder than you would swat a puppy who just peed on the kitchen floor.

The second warning will be a sternly written letter. Very sternly.

A stiff note on cardboard.

Well, it appears as though the voters (s)elected a White man to take her position as the First Black mayor. In a sense, it’s a shame that so many Firsts end up doing injustice to the positions they’re elected to, nominated for, or promoted into.

Word.

“The judge sentenced Owens to six months non-reporting probation and 100 hours of community service at a nonprofit organization.”

Must’ve been one of those judges who heard that the race of the defendant must be considered, in the interest of “fairness” or whichever nonsense dogshit is being followed for sentencing guidelines.

The interest of fainess is so the town isn’t burned down.

Bitch!

One has to wonder what else this lying, cheating, stealing demographically/gender entitled Bitch Skrunt has lied, cheated, and stolen besides this “charge”? I think we can add, at the very least, a charge of stealing oxygen. Lied and cheated to steal $10K and gets carrassed on the wrist? Yet folks that were invited to tour the Capital Building are spending decades in prison? Betcha if I stole $10K, I wouldn’t be allowed to say “oops sorry, not sorry, you caught me, here I’ll give it back.” Sadly the $10K that this lying, thieving, cheating Bitch Skrunt stole is a mere rounding error in the BILLIONS of $s stolen by other lying, cheating, stealing POSes that took from this grubermint give-away.

Whatcha wanna bet that this lying, cheating, stealing Bitch Skrunt will run for another political office? And get (s)elected?

I’m just waiting for a white defendant charged with a felony claim that he/she identifies as another color (or sex), and see how that plays out in sentencing.

51%…0%…close enough with “Girl Math” amiright or amiright?

rgr769

Plus, using Progtard math, 0% could be an anti-racist answer that is correct for what is 1% more than 50%.

Who is she related to that got her such a cushy sentence, that or was the Court scared shitless of her throwing the ACME® Race Card™?

Odie

Maybe, just maybe, we will get a judge who will throw race card back at em. Don’t like his verdict? Feel free to appeal.

John

What a surprise. I used to be open to race. Not anymore.

Prior Service

Any chance her community service could be served at the VA with a disgruntled command sergeant major (Ret) running the “volunteers”?

Now that is an ugly woman. I bet Kevin Samuels (may he rest in peace) would have a field day with her.

Maybe while they’re cleaning up the town, they can get rid of the extraneous “e” from the town name.

fm2176

Now, that’s just plain mean. They are the last of Ye Olde English in the Detroit area, as evidenced by their stellar former mayor.
