"Jail for all. One for all, all for one!"
"You just can't touch this!"
Ex-Detroit mayor sentenced to 28 years
Kilpatrick, a Democrat, quit office in 2008 in a different scandal that was extraordinary at the time but seems smaller compared with the sweeping federal probe that has led to the convictions of more than 30 people. Sexually explicit text messages revealed that Kilpatrick had lied during a trial to cover up an affair with his top aide, Christine Beatty, and to hide the reasons for demoting or firing police officers who suspected wrongdoing at city hall.
Detroit voters soon will elect a third mayor since Kilpatrick's departure, although the city is under the control of an emergency manager, for at least another year. Orr, (who is black - MY emphasis for political enlightening) with the blessing of Michigan's governor, took Detroit into bankruptcy in July, saying there was no other way to solve $18 billion in long-term debt. The case is pending.
"Kilpatrick is not the main culprit of the city's historic bankruptcy, which is the result of larger social and economic forces at work for decades. But his corrupt administration exacerbated the crisis," prosecutors said in a court filing last week.
The main culprit is liberalism, Detroitism, unions, and black racial/radicalism. They are intertwined. Inextricably.
So should the blame.
Sickening. What was once America's second most powerful city just 50 years ago, has been a fourth-world embarrassment for nearly 40 years.
Since Jan 1, 1974.
So sad.
