(AP) -- Detroit political consultant Sam Riddle will be sentenced for assault - if he gets to the Wayne County courthouse. Riddle's sentence was pushed to Thursday after some confusion caused him to miss the hearing Wednesday.
Riddle was in the St. Clair County jail, where he began serving a federal sentence this week for corruption. A mix-up prevented him from being transported to Detroit. Riddle faces a state sentence for assault and a gun crime.
Authorities say he pulled out a shotgun in December when his companion, Mary Waters, found him in bed with another woman.
