We can only wish this story was about our corrupt Mayor Daley.

It would take 2 day's to read the thousand count indictment.

Daley has sold out Chicago to the highest bidder, mostly his 11 ward friends.

Hopefully, "Little Nero" will be the Fed's next indictment.

Mayor Washington, you left us much too soon, R.I.P.

EXACTLY! How can Daley be prosecuted when the State's Atty. and most judges are from the 11th ward? Roti, Banks, Fast Eddie V. and the almighty Eddie Burke would not allow an indictment on Da Mayor. And that applied to the first crook. I'm sure this one has his flunkies.

That's right, you don't know the entire story. I've been following since January. He and Beatty lied during a grand jury testimony about their involvement in the firing of a Detroit police head. The Free Press got a hold of text messages between the two of them. The Freedom of Info Act allowed them to get the texts because these geniuses were texting from Detroit taxpayers paid phones. I fail to see how KK is being made an example. Do you condone lying under oath?

The idea of a big city mayor in jail.

I do like the sound of that.
Can Chicago borrow this judge?

If you don't know the whole story how can you comment? You sound like an angry person angry at everyone who isn't black.
The majority of people in power in Detroit happen to be black and you say they hate him because he is black.
After you read the story and figure out that this has nothing to do with race but with arrogance and crime maybe you can come back and comment.
<quoted text>
MinsterR is right on. I AM from Detroit, and know the years of corruption that are well documented in both the papers and the courts. KK is a common thug that is in jail, exactly where he belongs. White, Black, it doesn't matter - the extent of his abuse of power is criminal.

<quoted text> So what are you saying? When Blacks became elected officals in Detroit, all the White people moved out. If they had sucked it up and stayed, then maybe Detroit would be like Chicago when Harold Washington was elected. You therefore can't blame civil rights or even Coleman Young. You have to blame the Whites who moved out unable to trust the system created to elect officals.
Just stop - as a resident for 30 years, you don't know what you're talking about at all. There's more than enough blame to go around on all sides in this sad, sad story. If you do want to learn, I highly recommend reading "The Origins of the Urban Crisis : Race and Inequality in Postwar Detroit"

As to Kwame, he's the lowest form of criminal for absolutely robbing the few poor residents blind that are still left in Detroit.

Kayla,

Go the Detroit Free Press website and read all the articles on KK. The gist is he lied in court (perjury)about having an affair that caused the city to pay millions in a court settlement then he lied to the city council (honest service) about the settlement deal, fought with a sheriff's deputy (assaulting an officer) and left the country without notifying the court (bail violation). He's a scumbag no good hip-hop gangsta wannabe who rode his mommy's coat tail to the mayor's office.

As a resident for 30 years why are you writing from Texas? Ohh, my bad. You must be one of those who left.

Just returned from Detroit and I can tell you it is a depressed city. This just puts the nail in the coffin. Beautiful buildings, historic skyscrapers and storefronts sit empty. The downtown area is a ghost town. I really hope there can be some positive change for the people that live there.

It seems that Affirmative Action and all set-asides are only contributing to the stupidiztion of the Permanent Underclass. The Bible says we should not throw pearls to the pigs.
Black politicians are stupid, period.
Find me a politician of any color who isn't scum. The profession attracts scum. Your broad generalization that all black people are stupid makes you sound like a KKK member. So black doctors, teachers, and lawyers are stupid? I can point out plenty of white people who are stupid as well. Take a look in the mirror.....

I agree. The majority of politicians are scum. However, the white politicians are very good at covering their tracts, the black ones, not so much.

The main issue is that KK had an affair with CB and lied about under oath and cost the city of Detroit $9M. This city is already struggling financially and facing the bankruptcy/closure of thh three automobile makers left in the city. Detroit was sued by an ex-police chief and another top cop becuase they were fired for not covering up KK's affair with CB. It has nothing to due with him being black. Most of the peopl in the city of Detroit are black.

Wow, it's obvious you don't know the facts in this case and have been drinking the kool-aid! You should know at least some of the facts before you post as it makes you look shall we say "not so bright". Your post is way off base, way off. This guy has committed multiple crimes for which he's about to be tried and has ruined quite a few lives.
