The police chief has retired effective immediately.
Christine Beatty has not accepted a plea deal.

The City Attorney, Sharon McPhail resigned as well. I understand the City President, Ken Cockrel, Jr. will be sworn as the next mayor....a HOT MESS, but I really feel sorry for the citizens of Detroit....everything is up in the air, and the entire sorted mess is not over. The Feds are probably still going to investigate what happened with the death of the dancer, and the sludge contract with "Synergy" including allegations of kickbacks to some City Council members. It will be "on and poppin" for many months to come in the "Big D". Plus, Christine Beatty has lost her "bargaining chip" to work out her own "deal" since the "big fish" has pled out. Her case was continued to 9/11/08.
