Union chief gets a 2-year sentence - BY DAVID ASHENFELTER, Detroit Free Press
Michigan carpenters union chief Ralph Mabry and his former top assistant were sentenced to prison Monday for conspiring to obtain a $127,800 discount from construction companies that helped build Mabry's $803,000 home in Grosse Pointe Park in the late 1990s.
'This is a tough sentencing,' Friedman said during the one-hour hearing. 'The court is aware of all the good things that Mr. Mabry has done. ... But on the same token, somebody placed in his position has a duty to union members and society.'------------------------------------------- posted 5:46 AM :: reference link ::
