Only 29? That seems low to me. I demand a recount.

Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has appointed or promoted at least 29 of his or former Chief of Staff Christine Beatty's relatives and friends since Kilpatrick took office in 2002. Unlike the vast majority of city positions, these appointees do not have to go through a competitive examination process to get hired. They serve at the will of the mayor.
Note: Including Christine Beatty, there are 30 people listed with close ties to the mayor.

Of the 8 'cousins' listed only two share a common surname... just an observation.

Eh, I'd cut her some slack on this one. She's a mom that's probably angry as hell that her son's being torn to shreds. Speaking of which, call your mothers today.

If I did what he's done recently, my mother might be the first in line to rip me a new one.

if i ripped off the taxpayers for thousands of dollars, had an affair, and made a mockery of the city, the state and the whole democratic process.... i'm pretty sure my mom would not have my back.

Yeah but we just need to put all this behind us and move on to Kwame's vision of Detroit's future.


If goes to jail for any significant length of time, I am going to laugh my ass off for weeks.
