Corrupt UAW leader Pearson sentenced for racketeering scandal

 

 

Detroit โ€” Vance Pearson, who oversaw the largest United Auto Workers region in the country, was sentenced to 12 months in federal prison Tuesday, the last auto industry figure awaiting punishment in a years-long scandal that led to federal oversight of the union.

 

Federal judges have sentenced 10 UAW officials โ€” including two presidents โ€” one union vice president's widow and three Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV executives, collectively, to more than 20 years in federal prison for a pattern of corruption that included breaking federal labor laws, stealing union funds and receiving bribes, kickbacks and illegal benefits from contractors and auto executives.

 

Prosecutors also have secured prolonged oversight of the UAW and Fiat Chrysler, now part of Stellantis NV, which also was ordered to pay a $30 million fine. Yet FBI, Labor Department and IRS agents who have spent at least six years probing corruption within the U.S. auto industry have not finished investigating several unidentified targets.

 

The sentence comes 17 months after Pearson pleaded guilty to racketeering and embezzlement conspiracy. Prosecutors accused him of helping embezzle more than $1.5 million and spending the money on personal luxuries for labor leaders, including golf, cigars, private villas and liquor in Palm Springs, Calif., and elsewhere.

12 months in prison I guess is what could only afford in bribes to them
