$1,000,000 fine? I guess he had his community organized to the hilt.
In January, the Free Press published text messages Kilpatrick and Beatty exchanged on city-issued pagers. The article showed the pair lied under oath when they testified in a police whistle-blower trial last year that they did not have an intimate relationship. They also gave misleading testimony about the firing of a top police official, Gary Brown. Nelthrope was another cop who sued with Brown, both alleging their careers were ruined because of their involvement in an internal affairs investigation that could have led to the discovery of extramarital philandering by Kilpatrick.
Worthy cited the Free Press investigation in March, when she charged Kilpatrick with eight felonies and Beatty with seven. The charges included perjury, conspiracy, obstruction of justice and misconduct in office.
For this he gets 4 months??? and the no contest to felonius assault???
much less the complete and total corruption of how city contracts were awarded.
This guy should be locked up for life - with his equally corrupt Mom.
So when does OCP take over “New Detroit?”
Kwami should not have conducted an affair at work. That was his biggest mistake, but then, its all to the good.
His squeeze Christine Beatty made him enemies that would not give up.
Kevin James, on his radio show, just played an audio bite of Obama praising Kwame, and saying how he looks forward to a long future working with him. He said he’s looking forward to Kwame doing astonishing things. (Not verbatim.)
Another unholy union he can add to Ayers, Rev. Wright, et al. He’s not real good at choosing his associates.
