DETROIT CRIME STATISTICS, CHIEF CUMMINGS, LIES / ADJUSTMENTS??

I received a Life Saving Award (years ago) because there wasn't enough EMS trucks available.....a young man was bleeding to death...its an old sad story..........how many more have to die???? .....watch EMS report WDIV Chl 4 - 9/10/08

But...I have also spoken out for years - the same deadly situation replicates itself in the DPD - not enough police officers....between 1980-85 Mayor Young laid off - 1,100 police officers - Detroit became 'the Murder City'....

Now Kilpatrick has let go 1,200 police officers..... And Chief Bully-cumming is trying to put lipstick on this.....(Cummings - crime is going down???)...well yes - the more citizens that move out - the less chance a crime will occur..Detroit it now the 11th largest city - not the 5th largest...How many more people have to die - and or become victims of crimes (violent / non-violent)?

Cummings has failed to comply with thhe Dept of Justice decrees - now oversight extended to 2011...8 yrs?..

Under Cummings there was persistent charges that FBI crime stats were 'adjusted'

How does she have 31 years with the DPD???????

MAYOR KILPATRICK SCANDAL - BEWARE, DETROIT & MICHIGAN

BEWARE: Michigan legislators and business leaders, the Mayor of Detroit Kwame Kilpatrick, has been publicly ensnared in a sex, lies (perjury) text messaging scandal that he and his supporters say, he can recover from, but has implications state wide.

Mayor Kilpatrick's 'urban legend' discounted by Michigan Attorney General Michel Cox, who state police investigators have testified to - that he obstructed their investigation - was a bachelor party at the Manogian Mansion, home of Detroit's Mayor's, in which Kilpatrick's wife, Carlita, was alleged to have feloniously assaulted an exotic dancer / stripper by the name of Tamara Greene, who was later murdered in a drive by shooting, after telling people she danced at the Mayor's party. Their was an alleged cover up, that now includes the Governor, Jennifer Granholm, the Attorney General, the Mayor and members of his administration including two police chiefs.Some people believe that the Governor, the Mayor conspired with Mike Cox to cover up the party, with Cox getting a weak opponent and no mention of his infidelity, in his reelection race.

Attorney Norman Yatooma, has filed a $150 million dollar lawsuit, against the City of Detroit, that now again includes the Mayor, his sex partner/chief of staff Christine Beatty, body guards, and other administration members. Yatooma has requested the text messages, emails, voicemails etc of 34 people including the Mayor, security guards (some of whom may have committed fraud in getting hundreds of hours of unearned overtime), police chiefs, and homicide investigators. The Mayor's troubles are larger than perjury and everyone should look at the big picture and take action to protect the state and Detroit.

Detroit has had ethical failures of leadership and poor leadership since, Mayor Coleman Young, including city council members and school board members. Detroit faces maybe its greatest test, now - don't be surprised if it ends badly.

ps. Gary Brown, fired for investigating the Mayor and his bodyguards, (Whistleblowers lawsuit said last night (2-27-08), on Chl 7, that there was enough information in his investigation, to believe that the Manogian Mansion party occured, and that needs further investigation. He said there was not enough information, to believe that the Mayor, his bodyguards were involved in the murder of Tamara Greene, that needs further investigation.
