Kwame Kilpatrick is like an effin' roach...
Former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, who pleaded guilty and resigned amid multiple scandals earlier this year, is hoping to salvage his license to practice law.
As part of his plea deal, Kilpatrick lost his law license, but noted that he was doing so “under protest”. His attorneys are now appealing the decision to Michigan’s lawyer regulatory board.
Attorney Phillip Thomas said, “What happened was totally unprecedented. There are lawyers out there convicted of manslaughter and very, very serious felonies that this doesn’t happen to.”
The state’s Attorney Discipline Board has given Kilpatrick until the end of November to file an argument as to why the disbarment order shouldn’t be finalized.
