Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick charged under 38-count indictment.

“The indictment also charges Kwame Kilpatrick, Bernard Kilpatrick and Bobby Ferguson of defrauding donors to non-profit organizations, including the Kilpatrick Civic Fund.”

“They would ask donors to provide money to these funds, and instead of enriching the lives of Senior Citizens or children or residents of the city of Detroit — instead, using the funds for their personal benefit for expenses like yoga classes, spa treatments, golf clubs,” (according to U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade)

I had to play “Name that Party” with this article, because the Detroit CBS affiliate didn’t see the need to include the word “democrat.”
