As you watch the video of the settlement, as explained by Grand Traverse County Prosecutor Dennis LaBelle and Matthew Vermetten, Clous' attorney, think of these questions?
LaBelle
VermettenWill the $25,000 being paid by Clous cover all of the costs incurred by Grand Traverse County Prosecutor's office?
Who will monitor the "in-kind" work performed by Eastwood Excavating, LLC?
What is the name of the 501(c)3 organization that is getting the donation from William and Toni Clous?
"It was a business decision," said Matthew Vermetten, Clous' attorney. Is this a fair cost for a business deal? Would it deter other violators?
