A United Auto Workers senior officer is advising the team negotiating a new contract with General Motors Co. while facing criminal charges that he conspired with union President Gary Jones and others to steal member dues.
UAW Region 5 Director Vance Pearson attended negotiations in Detroit on Sunday, three days after federal prosecutors charged him with helping orchestrate a more than $1 million conspiracy that involved stealing dues and spending the money on personal luxuries, two sources told The Detroit News.
