Deadline Detroit | Wish granted: Kilpatrick co-defendant Bobby Ferguson released early from prison

by  Violet Ikonomova Bobby Ferguson They were friends who received two of the longest sentences ever handed down for public corruption, but today Bobby Ferguson is a free man, three months after his co-defendant, former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, was granted clemency by outgoing President Donald Trump.  U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds opened the cell door for Ferguson on Thursday, after he served seven years of his 21-year sentence at a federal prison in eastern Ohio. Kilpatrick was sentenced to 28 years. It would be inequitable for the defendant to complete the lengthy sentence originally imposed while the more culpable co-defendant who had received an even lengthier sentence, has been released, Edmunds wrote in her release order.

Judge frees Kwame Kilpatrick pal Bobby Ferguson from federal prison

View Comments Detroit  A federal judge Thursday freed contractor Bobby Ferguson from federal prison on compassionate grounds after he served only eight years of a 21-year sentence for helping former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick turn City Hall into a criminal enterprise. The move by U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds shortens one of the longest sentences for public corruption in U.S. history and alters punishment for participating in a racketeering conspiracy that helped push Detroit to the brink of bankruptcy. The order sends him home three months after Kilpatrick s conviction was commuted by President Donald Trump. Ferguson, 52, will still be required to pay $6,284,000 restitution to the Detroit Water & Sewerage Department.
