Debbie Schlussel: BREAKING: Detroit Pimp Daddy Mayor Kwame "The Kingpin" Kilpatrick Sent to Jail for Violating Bond
I never thought any judge would have the guts to jail Detroit's Pimp Daddy Mayor Kwame Malik "The Kingpin" Kilpatrick. But, just minutes ago, 36th District Court Judge Ronald Giles--who donated to Kilpatrick's campaign--jailed Hizzoner Kilpatrick for violating conditions of bond by making an unauthorized trip to Windsor, Canada. Kilpatrick will spend the night in jail.
Kilpatrick used as an excuse that he needs to close the deficit of the City of Detroit and that if he is jailed, 2,000 people will lose their jobs. Uh-huh. The judge didn't buy it.
Kilpatrick's lawyers went across the street to appeal the decision in Circuit Court, but I bet they lose. There is no "palpable error" or any other reason to reverse the decision. The hearing on that is tomorrow, Friday, at 9:00 a.m.
And if you don't believe that the people of Detroit get what they deserve, keep in mind that on Tuesday, a good chunk of Detroiters returned to office the mother of The Kingpin to represent them in Congress.
Yup, the City of Detroit . . . the Joke That Keeps on Givin'.

Local news anchor Guy Gordon just said on the air that he feels sorry for the Mayor's wife, Carlita Kilpatrick, and his sons, because she will have to explain to them that "Daddy's not coming home tonight." Um, Guy, come on. You know that's something she's had to tell them on very many nights before this one. The Mayor's extensive harem is a major element of many of the legal problems he's now in.
