"Detroit Mayor and Chief of Staff affair caught in text msgs" |
You have to remember that text msgs are saved and even years later they can be found. In the 4 months that they got over 4 years ago they found 1400 txt msg......and there are a majority that they can not print because they are graphic. There are tons and ton more on the main page.Mayor Kilpatrick, chief of staff lied under oath, text messages show So now we have another perjury case on the horizon and it's has already cost the city $9 Million and there are several other cases in the pipe line. Save the city some more money and embarrassment...Resign today! Save Peter and Hiro, Save Heroes sig by Pepe and bouncy by IceCat

Busted.I thought this guy sounded familiar. He's the one who threw the microphone during an interview, right? Sounds like he is a disaster as mayor. I hope you guys can get a good one soon. Corruption knows no background, region or political party. Agman tricked out my siggie

Since government officials are subject to the Freedom of Information Act everything must be saved. So Detroit used a company out of Mississippi, SkyTel, for their text messenging and all of them were saved. Now these were 2002 and 2003 and he says it's in the pass but the paper, plus every other news source in Detroit, want them all since he's been in office.IT info on the story So more news at 11....

*hands Luke Ravenstahl to Hobbs*Here you go. Boy wonder, my ass. And while we're at it? How would you like a county chairman? I've had about enough of Dan Onorato and his idea of taxing all of us for a public transit system that none of us are able to use. Well, with the exception of Emy, that is.

LAST EDITED ON 01-25-08 AT 11:35 AM (EST)I will not be drinking any alcohol in Allegheny County ever again. And there are several bars/restaurants in Sewickley that are not at all happy about that. "With all the talk about how to stimulate it, you'd think that the economy is a giant clitoris." - Barbara Ehrenreich Edited to add: PAT used to provide service in Beaver County into the city and into Robinson. BCTA now is expected to do it. Unfortunately, unless you can get to their headquarters on your own, you can't get that bus. Public transportation is a complete disgrace in such a relatively large urban area. I mean, cut me an f-ing break, do we really need a tunnel under the Allegheny for the kiddie car ride they call a subway?

>So now we have another perjury case on the horizon Probably not. Although sex-crazed Kwame and his sex-crazed bimbo were lying, as usual, on the witness stand, it's my understanding that the case was settled between the parties. Generally, there isn't any type of action for perjury brought when a case is settled, because there wasn't any reliance by the fact-finders (the jury or the judge) on the perjured testimony.

LAST EDITED ON 01-25-08 AT 09:34 AM (EST)I can't find the link in the Free Press but they say that he can still be prosecuted by the County Prosecutor and she is having a press conference at 10 am today to kick off her investigation. Plus there maybe an obstruction of justice charge because it someone called SkyTel and told them not to mail the txt msg to the judge when the case was going on. There is a lot of thought the the County Prosecutor will go through the motion but say there is not enough there for perjury because all you have is the txt msg and you need two sources but there are the whistle blower cops that saw things and now we have the hotels, spas, etc. so if I'm sure someone saw something for a second source. Plus now all the news outlets want all the txt msg and travel bills for the Mayor and his Chief of Staff. So more news at 11 for a long time to come.

>all you have is the txt msg and you need two sources That hasn't been the law in hundreds of years. All you need is something like this incredibly damning direct evidence in a case that turns on "knowing falsehood", as perjury does. Still, it's not like there was a miscarriage of justice -- the case was settled.

LAST EDITED ON 01-25-08 AT 11:27 AM (EST)The two sources is what the talking legal heads have been saying all over the news. I thought it was off. The case is settled but there are 2 more related to it and then there is the obstruction charge. The txt msg directly contradict their testimony in that case so if the questions were "clear", no what is the meaning of is, then just that could lead to charges and a conviction. So you are saying if I lie on the stand and then the case is settled I can't get prosecuted for perjury? That don't seem right. Save Peter and Hiro, Save Heroes sig by Pepe and bouncy by IceCat

I didn't say you couldn't get prosecuted. Lying under oath is still illegal. But you almost never see a prosecution in a case that was settled before being submitted to a fact-finding verdict by either a judge or jury.For example, in Massachusetts the speaker of the state House testified in one case that he had had no involvement in drafting a law. In a second case, he testified that he had some involvement but hadn't looked at the law carefully. The first case was settled. The second case went to a verdict, where the judges ruled against the speaker's side. Then it came out that the law in question had actually been drafted by the speaker's office, and two of his aides testified that the speaker had personally drafted the law. His lie in the first case was total and obvious. His lie in the second case was more subtle. Guess in which case he was prosecuted for perjury? Right, the second. Why? Because it went to a verdict, so you could prove that when the case was fully submitted, his statements were false, and so he had tried to mislead the factfinders. The first case was never fully submitted.

LAST EDITED ON 01-26-08 AT 08:44 PM (EST)Amid MLK event, mayor with woman at resort One of the local TV stations has learned that at an MLK event just last week he had another woman with him on the trip. Christen Beatty has been confirmed in another place so it was not her as was the mayor's wife and kids. He and Beatty are still in hiding and the Deputy Mayor is running the city. More and more people are coming out trying to spin this every which way to keep him and her in their positions but there are more and more calling for him to resign as more and more info on his travels are getting out. Plus they are deposing the lawyer for the whistle blowers lawsuit to see if there was a confidentiality agreement with that lawsuit...since that would be against the law too since it was a government case and against the freedom of information act.
