Republican unrepentant after giving her son $24,000 in donor moneyreport
"Michigan Advance reports a state GOP lawmaker used donor money to pay her 24-year-old son more than $24,000 in consulting fees over the last two years, after he was charged with domestic violence in September.
The expenditures by the campaign committee of state Rep. Jamie Thompson, R-Brownstown Township, were uncovered through an ongoing Detroit News investigation of legislators' campaign spending, according to Michigan Advance.
“That amount totals around 15 percent of the campaign’s expenditures in that period, and includes over $5,000 since her son was charged with domestic violence in Wayne County last September,” Michigan Advance reported."
