1Opinion of the Court
NATHANIEL R. JONES, Circuit Judge.
In one of the saddest, yet most egregious cases of public corruption to come before this court in recent years, Defendant-Appellant William L. Hart, the former Chief of Police for the City of Detroit, appeals his conviction for embezzlement and filing false income tax returns. Upon careful consideration of the record before this court and the oral arguments, we conclude that appellant’s arguments are without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the conviction and sentence in their entirety.
