Community activist Robert Davis, a former Highland Park school board member, who  was accused of stealing more than $125,000 from the cash-strapped school district, pleaded guilty Tuesday to two federal charges, the Detroit News reports.

He could get 18 to 24 months under the recommended sentencing guidelines,  Robert Snell of the News reports.

Specifically, he pleaded guilty to converting money from the school district for his own use and filing a false tax return, court records indicate.

In a court filing, Davis is asking that he be allowed to continue working as a union staff representative.

"I'm glad to put it behind me," Davis said Tuesday, according to the News.

Somebody should sit this dude down and tell him the tale of another Union Offiicial by the name of Jimmy Hoffa who:
"didn't know what happened to all the money"

Organized crime has an irronic sense of humor when dealing with people who steal.

The money "disappeared" right Jimmy?

Well you goin' "disappear" too........
