Because a few people here seem to care...

Today, Kwame was arraigned on the assault on the police officer charges. He was offered a plea bargain.. they would drop one of the two felonious assault charges if he resigned from office by September 3rd (the date the governor is having a removal hearing). They decided to think on it. His legal team has come back and said no way.

September 3rd can't get here soon enough. Word is that Jennifer Granholm is getting pressure from the Democratic Party and even from Obama to remove this joker from office.

So, the Governor began hearings today to remove him from office. Then, after a full day of hearings, this came out:

Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is expected to accept a plea deal on Thursday in his perjury case that will end his tenure as the city's mayor and send him to jail.

Sources told Local 4 the mayor is expected in court at 9 a.m. Thursday in front of Wayne County Circuit Court Judge David Groner, where he will reportedly go on record and plead guilty to a deal that includes jail time, a six-figure restitution, community service and a mandate that he would not run for office again.
