It s one of the two churches where he delivered his first public remarks after being released from prison in January. Bishop J. Drew Sheard officiated. McGee was a receptionist in the mayor s office from 2002-04, while Kipatrick was mayor. They may have spoken once or twice, he said, but had no relationship at the time. But when Kilpatrick was in prison, the two began a correspondence, and love blossomed. ....
Detroit Kevin Adell, owner of WFDF-AM (910), has banned radio personalities and guests from mentioning Kwame Kilpatrick after the former Detroit mayor spurned a potentially lucrative job offer. Adell describes a brief, unrequited and, eventually, bitter courtship launched after Kilpatrick left prison last month when President Donald Trump commuted the politician s 28-year federal prison sentence. Adell said he offered Kilpatrick, 50, the option of a morning or afternoon drive-time radio show on 910 Superstation and a half-hour show on his Word Network, the world s largest African American religious network that reaches more than 200 countries. But Kilpatrick never responded, Adell says, rebuffing an offer that could help the politician satisfy probation conditions that include securing a job, and paying more than $1.7 million in restitution to the Internal Revenue Service and the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department. ....

Earlier Friday, the page featured a video showing Kilpatrick, clad in a red hooded sweatshirt, scrawling on a message board with a marker. The caption reads: Welcome home bro! The appearance would be his first publicly known return to Detroit since outgoing President Donald Trump commuted Kilpatrick s sentence last week and freed him from a lockup at a minimum-security prison in Oakdale, Louisiana. Kilpatrick still had 16 years remaining on his sentence after receiving credit for good behavior in prison. ....

The bearded ex-mayor looked thinner and grayer than when he headed to prison in 2013, reports Sarah Rahal of The Detroit News. Rahal writes about thge weekend gathering: The former Detroit mayor had been joined with friends and family at the home an hour south of Atlanta in a secluded neighborhood of Griffin, a small suburb surrounded by cattle and horse ranches. Located down a mile-long dirt road into a new-construction community, the single-story home purchased for $336,848 in 2019 by Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, the matriarch and former U.S. representative, had vehicles stretched down the driveway and around the street. People gathered there enjoyed each other s company in a sunroom in the backyard. ....
