Are You Kidding Me? A Pardon ??

Sharon McPhail sent a letter to Granholm on Wednesday sent a letter to Gov. Jennifer Granholm's attorney suggesting that Granholm offer to pardon Kilpatrick on criminal charges in exchange for his testimony at the Sept. 3 removal hearing.

In a previous letter, McPhail had asked Granholm's staff if immunity would be available to Kilpatrick if he testified. But Granholm's attorney Kelly Keenan responded saying Granholm didn't have the power to grant immunity in a criminal case.

McPhail argues that Granholm can't hold an administrative hearing while criminal charges are pending and inquire about the facts surrounding the charges if immunity is not offered.

She argued in the letter again that Granholm should hold off on the hearings until Kilpatrick's criminal charges are resolved. She said she will file motions arguing that the hearings should be delayed.

This is just disgusting !

I don't think that there will be a pardon. I think that Mayor K's in a heap of trouble with the court cases. It is difficult to imagine Mayor K doing his regular job description duties when he's either preparing for court, attending court hearings, involved in mandated court drug testing, being in jail, having a tether removed, having a tether activated, consulting with his attorneys, etc. Mayor K wouldn't be pardoned but removed from office. Mayor K. is entrenched in his own demise of being in the court system which is of his own volition through his own actions. What transpires in court will seal his fate and there will be no need for a pardon, just maybe a resignation. Gov. Granholm is wise to let the court proceedings transpire with due process as Mayor K is accountable for his own actions and no one is going to be able to change the directions of implementation.

Isn't McFailure one of Coleman Young's girlfriends? If so, she really knows what she likes in men--crooks & liars.

Don't forget McConcur. Somebody's really getting some moulah? Why would anyone stick up for someone charged with 10 felonies. Kym Worthy gained national attention with the M. Greene case and she's a seasoned, veteran of a prosecutor, not that prosecutors are my friends as I'm just stating the facts. Do u no anything about NASCAR? It's in my sport's blog and I don't know who Smoke is? Could you write something there. t. u.
McFailure used to be an enemy of Mayor K. Something happened....

Pardon ???? With all the garbage that he is involved in there should be none. So what if he won't testify....with all his troubles and court appearances filling the calendar, there's NO WAY he can do his job. Misconduct in office? YES!!! REMOVAL ? YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To Rosiesgirl..
There would seem to be misconduct in office with the new assault charges. I can't believe that he allegedly(I have to say this because he is innocent until proven guilty) "manhandled" a process server. What was he thinking? He must have lost control of his emotions and thought I'll just grab this court officer and shove him into Det. Kinney. Det. Kinney's testimony seems like she was shocked saying, "unbelieveable." What Mayor of any city would have a assault charges such as as these? Seems like misconduct in office to me... I can't understand why he'd lose control like this being an attorney also but he's seems to use his big size too!...Very weird!!

I moved from Detroit this past August back to Alpena to take care of my parents. I still have a love and interest in what goes on in Detroit.
