Well done DPS!

"It was a fine party Thursday night at Detroit's St. Regis Hotel...at least until Action News Chief Investigative Reporter Steve Wilson showed up with a few questions."

Wow. Just wow. No wonder there isn't anything left for the kids. We can't even give them a light snack prior to testing...wow, just wow.

Sigh. There is absolutely nothing those jackasses can do which would surprise me anymore. This was close.

This is so embarrassing. I wish the entire DPS system to be eliminated and that an organization with a real interest in educating children would take over.

Kind of like the band playing while the Titanic is sinking. These people are so corrupt they appear oblivious to the fact that they are stealing from children.

Whatever happened to the 1.6 million spent on "art work" a few years ago ?

They run the system like a Las Vegas casino.

Is this surprising? The City has the cash to run three municipal elections in one year. DPS has enough to throw parties for their cronies....and the cash keeps rolling in from Lansing.

According to my sources, the "artwork" has left the building. No one seems to know where it went. There are one or two pieces still hanging but they are the lesser expensive pieces.
