Late Tuesday, Kilpatrick defended himself at an east-side meeting to promote his budget plan with city residents.
“It’s unfortunate that in Detroit only, you’re guilty till proven innocent,” he told the group of about 100. “There’s a lot of bad information being presented in front of you, and hopefully by the end of this, we’ll all see things pretty clearly.”
Afterward, he told reporters: “I don’t think that, at all, this is a smoking gun that everybody thought it would be.”

Do you remember when I posted about Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his indictment? Well it seems that the Treasurer of Detroit is upset about the “hush money” settlement that Mayor Jigalo orchestrated and the City of Detroit is now suing its mayor and his former mistress aide for $27 MILLION DOLLARS. As always Courthouse News Service provides the details. I found a site today called King Kwame and it has a decent time line. A better time line will be found in my previous posting.
RELATED DOCUMENT - City of Detroit v. Kwame Kilpatrick
Detroit Jigalo Mayor Kwame Malik Kilpatrick is in a bunch of hot water. Indicted for perjury. Imagine that, another politician facing criminal charges and one who cheats on his wife. Sure, Christine Beatty is no “Kristen” and probably did not cost nearly as much money, she lied under oath and is also going to be held accountable for her actions. Copies of some of the steamy text messages are inside.
