On the same day that Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was released from jail where he had been held for violation terms of his bond… On the same day that Mayor Kilpatrick was arraigned on two charges of assaulting police… The Detroit Tigers were playing ball as if nothing had happened at all. The mayor’s personal suite? …occupied by none other than about a dozen police supervisors from all over the country. How do I know this? I was one of those cops!
We were visiting Detroit as part of an assessment center to help in the promotion process of the city’s newest police lieutenants! Good Luck Candidates!
On the downside, the Tigers lost to the Oakland A’s 4-2. But it was an exciting game played in beautiful weather!
Whatever you may wish to say against the mayor, no one can say the man holds a grudge!
