DETROIT (AP) – A former suburban Detroit police chief and five of his detectives have been charged in an alleged scheme that used drug forfeiture money to pay for prostitutes, alcohol and marijuana, and to buy a tanning salon later operated by the then-chief’s wife.
Ex-Romulus Police Chief Michael St. Andre and the detectives assigned to a special investigations unit were arraigned Tuesday on multiple charges, including conducting a criminal enterprise, conspiracy, embezzlement, misconduct in office and neglect of duty. St. Andre’s wife, Sandra, is charged with acquiring/maintaining a criminal enterprise, conspiracy and filing a false tax return.

Part of the alleged scheme involved a purported investigation into allegations of liquor violations, prostitution and drug trafficking at two Romulus area strip clubs. That investigation was directed by Michael St. Andre and was hidden from the supervisor of the police department’s special investigations unit, according to prosecutors.
Results of the strip club investigation never were forwarded to prosecutors for charges, Worthy said in a release. She said that instead of investigating, the detectives were actually soliciting prostitutes for themselves.
