The News About Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick And Christine Beatty


Well, it seems that Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his chief of staff, Christine Beatty, lied while under oath in a trial about their alleged affair. The case involved a lawsuit by two police officers, which charged threatened to expose unlawful or unethical conduct by the mayor, including his affair with Christine Beatty.

Kilpatrick and Beatty were both asked directly whether they were romantically involved and they both denied that they were. But now text messages have surfaced that prove that the two did have a romantic involvement.

"I'm madly in love with you," the mayor wrote in one of his text messages. Beatty answered that message with, "I hope you feel that way for a long time”.

The Mayor now admits that the affair happened, but that it was 4 or 5 years ago, which is how the t text messages are he also said "My wife and I worked our way through these intensely personal issues years ago. I would now ask that the public and the media respect the privacy of my wife and children and of Christine Beatty and her children at this deeply painful moment for our families."

The real shame is the affect this will have on the families, Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick’s wife and sons and Christine Beatty kids.

That’s the news about that. I hope the news about you is good news.
