Could former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, known as the
Hip-Hop major, who held office from 2002 to 2008, be released from a
low-security prison in Louisiana after being sentenced in 2013 to 28 years for
corruption, racketeering conspiracy, fraud, extortion and tax crimes, which was
related to shaking down contractors and rewarding his allies?
The government called the scheme the “Kilpatrick
enterprise."
In a February letter to President Trump, the Ebony
Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to combating mass incarceration, argued that
Kilpatrick's lengthy sentence was not appropriate for his crimes.
Kilpatrick, who has maintained his innocence, filing several appeals, is officially
scheduled to be released in January 2037. (Source:FoxNews)
