DETROIT -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick went on a shopping spree during his first full day in jail, spending $40 on food, toiletries and XXXL long johns.
Records released Friday to the Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News show Kilpatrick's purchases included granola bars, barbecue potato chips, shampoo and $2 worth of Vaseline.
In late October, Kilpatrick began serving a 120-day sentence for obstruction of justice and assault. With good behavior, he could be out of jail after 100 days.
Kilpatrick was in a scandal that involved courtroom lies, sex with a top aide and incriminating text messages.
The Wayne County jail did not release the names of Kilpatrick's visitors. He reported to jail in a business suit and had 18 pairs of socks and $67.
“...and $2 worth of Vaseline.”
Geez, it didn’t take him long to fit in to that crowd.
He's going to stuff his boots with it. /very_obscure
That’s only a weeks supply LOL!
It’s good for everything
In the time it took me to post my response the others all showed up. This is a tough crowd! LOL!
I wonder who he’s got planning his next run for office?

It’s called commissary, numbnut reporters wouldn’t understand.
What’s the guy supposed to do, brush his teeth with toilet water?
Now what’s a brotha in jail buying Vaseline fo’? ;)
Sorry for the hiccup!
Happy Kwanzaa!
Ha Ha was thinking the same thing ... the vaseline was really necessary....
LOL! Vaseline means he made some new friends in prison.
Heh, now WHO can post that picture of the soldering iron, electric cord and vise????
Just crazy. And we have a President who not only sends Kwanzaa cards like other Presidents, I am sure he practices it as well.
Anyone think he doesn’t? Especially after hearing that crowd he hangs out with at Trinity...
I think he celebrates Ramadam.
No he celebrates Obamadan.
He got lonely awfully fast. It took the guy in Midnight Express what, 12 years before he finally broke down. This guy got in over the weekend and is already stocking his medicine cabinet with the grease. Ah hahahahahaha, ahhhh haahahahaha.
Ramadude more like it.
sorry.
