Vance Pearson, 58, was once one of the powerful leaders of the UAW. Now he's in federal court, accused conspiracy to spend hundreds of thousands of UAW dues on an elaborate lifestyle.

A Detroit Police Sergeant who was suspended for not responding to the shooting of two officers that resulted in the death of 16-year veteran Rasheen McClain had been fired for cowardliness - only to get his job back.

The UAW has announced the resignation of Region 5 Director Vance Pearson.

The man Detroit Police say shot and killed 16-year veteran Rasheen McClain is also suspected in two other shootings and another murder this week in Detroit. 

He is out on his own terms, or so he says. United Auto Workers boss Gary Jones retired Wednesday.

Within an hour of the UAW announcing plans to expel Gary Jones and another top official from the Union, the now-former president announced plans to resign from the union.

Detroiters had time to weigh in on Mayor Mike Duggan's two-hundred and fifty million dollar bond proposal to demolish empty blighted homes.

The UAW is enacting a slew of ethics reform in response to an FBI probe into alleged corruption at the union. In one of the first decisions made by acting President Rory Gamble since taking the helm after the former president took a leave of absence, the announcement comes amid contract negotiations between the automakers and union members.

A 250 million dollar bond proposal put forth by Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan was debated by residents and council members in front of the city council on Tuesday. While its plan would be to eradicate blight throughout the city in five years, a blistering report from the Auditor General last week pointed out several problems with the city's demolition program.

The acting president of the United Auto Workers said Wednesday that a corruption scandal plaguing the union will get worse before it gets better, but that he's confident he can fix the mess and turn over a clean house to the next leader.

As a widening corruption by the FBI continues to ensnare more top brass of the UAW, its president is taking a leave of absence.
