I think it is very fitting that KK's law degree was taken from him. That smug look on his face... laughing and having a party in the courtroom when he should have been exhibiting some sort of acknowledgement of his wrong-doing... People like this NEVER change. He shook his head "no" the whole time the judge was speaking the truth to him. The way they acted in court was a disgrace. They should all be ashamed of themselves, but they never will be because these types of people will never see or acknowledge what they have done to harm others. God, let's hope they take the three sons and raise them elsewhere, far, far away from the City of Detroit that has suffered so much at the hands of this so called Mayor.

They should all put their heads down, tails between their legs and leave the country.

Someone needs to sit this old "criminal" down and explain to him about the justice system. The basics of law. WHEN YOU COMMIT A CRIME , DENY IT, THEN ADMIT TO IT, YOU ARE GUILTY. A grade school child knows this. He should be preparing for HIS upcoming trial. The FBI has HIM on tape!!! Throw your race card in the toilet stool, Papa Kwame! The rotten apple does not fall far from the tree!!

"Railroaded", Bernie? What a dillweed! The law in Day-twa needs to hunt you and Cheeky down like the dogs you are and put your sorry rumps behind bars where you belong! To keep things interesting while you are wards of the penal system, we could put "Babyclueless0000" in there with you!

And Papa K, alot of those young men didn't start out with the opportunities and luxuries your son had, what went wrong?? It seems the Kilpatrick family is good at running,a scam, their mouths,up their bank accounts, but not a family. "It all starts at home"!!!!!

Papa K, If thousands of black men were being railroaded all this time, why didn't your son do something to change that while he was in office?? I am so sick of racists!!!

Did KK's mom say she would support her son? Some support - not showing up for his sentencing.
