This is part 1 of a 2 part series where we dive into a 2008 Criminal Trial where Ven Johnson and his then, law partner, Geoffrey Fieger, were indicted by the FBI for illegal campaign contributions. The trial ended with both Ven and Geoffrey being acquitted of all charges- but not before a wild legal showdown.

In part 1, we speak with Ven’s defense attorney Steve Fishman along with our very own Charlie Langton- who was assigned to the case via his work as a reporter.

As with many folks across metro Detroit right now, some of us were having issues with our internet connection. We encourage ya’ll to hang in there as this story is not one to miss.
