It appears that the FBI has been working on corruption in Detroit for quite a few years now and just a few days ago unveiled indictments against Kwame, his father, his buddies and a few more. The indictments are based on violations of Federal Racketeering Laws known as RICO (Racketeering Influenced and Corruption Organizations Act of 1970.
Although RICO was primarily to get at the Mafia, it is now used on all sorts of crimes.
The one thing that irked me in this whole process is that Kwame is getting a court appointed lawyer (paid by us) because he is claiming he is broke. He ain’t getting just the next lawyer on the list; he is getting a highly paid lawyer.
If we use simple logic here, a person that has been collection millions of dollars in kick-backs is now broke? How does the court know he is broke since Kwame has proven over and over again that he is a lying sack of shit?
The fact that this whole process of asking for and getting a court appointed attorney is a secret process, bothers me. Kwame has no rights to privacy; he is a convicted felon. We have every right to know why he is getting free legal defense; it’s our money!
Court officials have stated that the process works and they should be trusted to do the right thing…well I don’t trust anyone anymore, especially organizations that are suppose to know what the hell they are doing.
Look at the federal police monitor appointed by the federal court to monitor the Detroit Police Department to make sure its practices were legal. Hell, the monitor slept with Kwame and billed the city for millions and did absolutely nothing for those millions. She would still be collecting her millions if crazy Kwame’s text messages were not made public, revealing his sexual liaison with the federal monitor. The city is now wanting its money back – good luck with that!
What about the Detroit Water Department? The department has been under federal court oversight for 30 years. All sorts of lawyers were making bunches of money supposedly making sure that everything at the department was kosher – hell, they were stealing money right under their noses and we are suppose to trust the courts to do their job…bullshit. The suburbs, which use Detroit water, are now joining forces to take the department away from Detroit ; and I don’t blame them.
I say use the Freedom of Information Act to get the info on how exactly it was determined that Kwame was broke and needed a court appointed (expensive) lawyer. Same goes for Kwame’s father who also pocketed millions and any other scum bag that has been ripping off the city for years.
IT'S OUR MONEY AND WE DESERVE TO KNOW HOW IT'S BEING SPENT!
PS. Monica Conyers took bribes and has a rich husband in the U.S. House of Representatives and we still paid for her lawyer.
