The state really messed up when they put Kwame Kilpatrick, the disgraced former Mayor of Detroit, back into prison for the next eighteen months to five years.
When he was sentenced, he also lost his $100,000 a year job in Texas. So instead of him making whatever payments he can over the next five years, they’ve chosen to get reimbursed nothing.
Did they just shoot themselves in the foot or what? Yes, he needed to be taught a lesson, but Detroit can’t afford to be foregoing any income. In this case, it would have been better to come up with a solution that allowed him to keep his job and keep making payments.
A little more common sense down there, please.
