Those named were Denny Robinson, 35, of Brownstown, Mich.; Bruce Plumb, 61, of Brownstown; Gregory Gorski, 47, of Canton, Mich.; Jeffery Adams, 50, Copley, Ohio; and Mancer Holmes, 49, of Farmington Hills, Mich. All were charged with conspiring to commit bribery and face up to five years in prison if convicted.

U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade said the unnamed contractor offered the bribes to secure a $13 million contract to work on Postal Service vehicles in Michigan and Ohio.

The perks the men allegedly received include money, tickets to professional sports events, work done on their homes and gift cards. Plumb allegedly received paid sex and erectile dysfunction drugs as well as $8,000 in work on his grandson's truck.
