MAYOR KILPATRICK - GUILTY - RESIGN NOW

The verdict in the whistle blower case against the City and Mayor Kilpatrick shows the cesspool of corruption in the Detroit political leadership from the mayor, city council to school board continues - starting with Coleman Young and continuing today.

Detroit needs new political leadership ...now...and a new police chief not tied to the mayor...residents, visitors and Detroit police officers need to know that the Police Department is led by executives who make the best decisions to protect them - not political decisions.

Mayor Kilpatrick says we (Detroit) doesn't have the money to pay the judgement in the Brown / Neglthorpe lawsuit...BUT..... the City had $7million dollars to pave 10 acres of Belle Isle...and untold millions of $$$$ more for improvements of Belle Isle for the Grand Prix.

Kilpatrick should have friends and family pay the entire award...He has betrayed his oath of office and disgraced Detroit, not to mention allegations of criminal behavior that haven't been resolved - and no should be..now... Call the Detroit City Council (313 224 4500) and tell them to have Kilpatrick pay - and to stop any costly appeals.

Detroit needs new ethical political leadership...now...........david malhalab
