There will be a news conference at 10 a.m. Friday morning with Kym Worthy of the Prosecuter's office which is going to be broadcast....can't see how they could possibly get away with wiggling out of NOT charging him with purjery.

Their hands are pretty well tied even with the "business as usual" politics of Detroit.....how could you possibly justify letting him slide on this?

It depends on how much money Kwame has to offer to the right people...

With technology being what it is today,, wouldn't you think he would know everything that is sent is retrievable.

Big brother has us under his eyes, even if we think we are unwatched. A lot of the cars built after 2006, have a chip in the computer similar to the on-star computer chip. This chip allows the tracking and in the future the ability to disable the engine.

Illicit sex is usually expensive one way or another.  Even for Bill Clinton......... *

I didn't mean that Clinton had a lot done to him, but considering that he didn't ruin the lives of the police officers investigating him with his perjury, it's not exactly the same thing.  He was charged, found guilty, impeached.  Judicial process for a president was followed.  The Senate then took over and decided not to remove him from office. 

A bad real estate deal != firing officers to cover up your affair.  (I'm still not sure how the affair really tied into the investigation; I was pretty young at the time and didn't pay a lot of attention to the whole thing.  If anyone wants to tell me, maybe take it to PM so we don't drag this thread further off-topic)

In further Kwame news, the city unions may ask him to step down.  I'm not sure what I think about him stepping down, since I don't know what the procedure is for replacing him is.

According to the Michigan Compiled Law, "IF" Kwame gets convicted of perjury, the governor will have to remove him.

168.327 Removal of city officers by governor; grounds; action on charges; service of
charges; hearing; eligibility for election or appointment following removal or conviction.Sec. 327. The governor shall remove all city officers chosen by the electors of a city or any ward or voting district of a city, when the governor is satisfied from sufficient evidence submitted to the governor that the officer has been guilty of official misconduct, wilful neglect of duty, extortion, or habitual drunkenness, or has been convicted of being drunk, or whenever it appears by a certified copy of the judgment of a court of record of this state that a city officer, after the officer's election or appointment, has been convicted of a felony. The governor shall not take action upon any charges made to the governor against a city officer until the charges have been exhibited to the governor in writing, verified by the affidavit of the party making them, that he or she believes the charges to be true. But a city officer shall not be removed for misconduct or neglect until charges of misconduct or neglect have been exhibited to the governor as provided in this section and a copy of the charges served on the officer and an opportunity given the officer of being heard in his or her defense. The service of the charges upon the officer complained against shall be made by personal service to the officer of a copy of the charges, together with all affidavits or exhibits which may be attached to the
original petition, if the officer can be found; and if not, by leaving a copy at the last known place of residence of the officer, with a person of suitable age, if a person of suitable age can be found; and if not, by posting the copy of the charges in a conspicuous place at the officer's last known place of residence. An officer who has been removed from office pursuant to this section shall not be eligible for election or appointment to any office for a period of 3 years from the date of the removal. A person who has been convicted of a violation of section 12a(1) of Act No. 370 of the Public Acts of 1941, being section 38.412a of the Michigan Compiled Laws, shall not be eligible for election or appointment to an elective or appointive city office for a period of 20 years after conviction.
