Our notoriously corrupt bad boy ex-mayor of Detroit , Kwame Kilpatrick
was in town to face some federal bribery and corruption charges with his father
and best buddy as co-defendants.
The Detroit news ran a story by Orlandar Brand-Williams and
Joel Kurth today titled: KILPATRICK: NO FAIR TRIAL IN CITY; Former Detroit
mayor tells journalists he’s been demonized as the source of the city’s problems
(Friday, August 17,2012). The article is the source for my information;
comments are my own.
Kilpatrick held a “freewheeling” 2 hour discussion with the
National Association of Black Journalists because he wants the world to know
that his persecution is a racial thing and he will play that race card every
chance he gets.
The ex-mayor who was convicted for lying under oath and is
called by many a lying sack of shit, told reporters that he never took a dime
from anyone and was not corrupt at all and that the federal government is on a
witch hunt with their silly 38 count indictment charging him with running a
criminal enterprise.
He did take the blame for his mother’s re-election defeat
(Representative Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick) noting that the media treated her
unfairly but not that the voters saw her as a failed mother and person for
bringing up such a corrupt and unprincipled son. Let us not forget that his
father and her former husband is facing charges also…nice family.
Kilpatrick did not have anything good to say about the
current mayor, Dave Bing, saying the mayor is “detached from the community” and
does not have a “force of personality” like obviously he had when he was
mayor…and that is why the city is in the mess it is in?
I am glad someone asked him what he thought of the city as
ready for a white mayor which he said was a “plantation question” and demeans
minorities which I don’t quite understand but knowing how he plays the race
card, I feel he believes that only a black mayor is appropriate for the city
while acknowledging that the potential white candidate, Mike Duggan, is
qualified for the spot; Kilpatrick and Duggan came out of the same political
machine that spawned many a public figure.
As to Kilpatrick not being able to get a fair trial in the
city I can only say that judging from his warm and enthusiastic reception in
the city, all he needs is to plant one sympathetic juror and a mistrial is
guaranteed and he knows that and the judge knows that and that is why the judge
is keeping the jurors out of sight…is that legal?
Kwame just got a fourth lawyer appointed to his team of tax
payer funded expensive legal beagles…is that legal? He has also guaranteed
himself a very credible reason for an appeal by saying publicly that he does
not trust his lawyer and cannot work with him…could that be their strategy to
keep him out of jail?
Kilpatrick stole millions from the tax payers and those same
tax payers are now paying to keep him out of jail…is this ironic or what…only
in Detroit!
