Most of you already know about the "Text Scandal" with former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick who was sentenced to jail and given a large fine. His top aid Christina Betty has now been charged and will spend 120 day in county jail. Back in January 2008 the Associated Press released romantic text messages between the two married former school mates. Beatty and Kilpatrick, both 38, were charged with lying about their affair under oath during a 2007 civil trial on claims that two police officers were punished for investigating alleged wrongdoing in the mayor's inner circle.
Kilpatrick's controversies started years before this. It was reported that a wild party allegedly occurred in the fall of 2002, involving strippers at the official residence of the mayor, the city-owned Manoogian Mansion. It is alleged by former members of the mayor's Executive Protection Unit that the mayor's wife, Carlita Kilpatrick, came home unexpectedly and upon discovering Kwame with the strippers began to attack one of the women. The stripper Tamara Greene (Strawberry) was later found shot in her boyfriends car.
