On July 27, Tiffany Randle, former secretary-treasurer of American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 652, was charged in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan with forging checks from a union bank account, of an unspecified sum, for her personal use. Less than three weeks later, on August 14, she pleaded guilty. The union is based in Kalamazoo. The charge follows a probe by the Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards and Office of Inspector General.
