North Texas resident, and disgraced former Detroit Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, is in a courtroom back in Michigan this morning, answering questions about his finances in a hearing about restitution he may owe the city of Detroit.
The Detroit Free Press is live blogging the proceedings. It’s the first time I’ve heard a large house in Southlake described as “transitional housing.”
Kilpatrick just admitted that the nonprofit Kilpatrick Civic Fund — established for voter education and to improve Detroit’s neighborhoods — was used to pay for Kilpatrick’s home in Texas.
Referring to the fund’s board, Kilpatrick said: “They had a meeting and decided that because I was the lead fund-raiser for this organization and because I was out of a job, they agreed they would pay for some moving expenses … and for some transitional housing, short -term.”

Wow, that is some kind of company you got there in Dallas. What the hell were you thinking (or what does he have on Karmonos?) when you hired this lying, cheating, theiving thug as your ’sales representative’ making 180,000 a year. I heard you announced his hire the same day you laid off 300 workers. Wow. Idiots.
You sure wont see a piece of Compuware software near our company ever again, I can promise you that.
