Former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, who is serving 28 years in prison, is pleading with President Donald Trump to commute his sentence to time served.
The disgraced former mayor asked for a commutation of his sentence, according to a public Facebook post.
A message posted on the “Free Kwame Project” website announced that Kilpatrick is “ready (mentally, emotionally, spiritually) to go home!”
Kilpatrick apparently likes his chances after President Trump pardoned filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza (who was thrown into prison by the Justice Department under Obama) and a 63-year-old grandmother who was sentenced to life on drug charges as a first offender.
Kilpatrick, 47, was sentenced in 2013 to serve 28 years in prison on multiple counts of extortion, bribery, conspiracy and racketeering.
The former mayor was accused of funneling cash bribes into secret bank accounts and diverting city funds into his own pockets.
Kilpatrick, who served as Detroit mayor from 2001 to 2008, also placed his father and other family members on the city’s payroll, as well as enriched his friends who helped him get elected.
If Trump ignores his request, Kilpatrick will languish behind bars until 2037.
Might as well shoot your shot
BWHAHAAA…FAT CHANCE.
Sit back and relax dude…Chump will be like, “im good luv, enjoy ?
If Obama had put him there, Dump would commute his sentence yesterday.
I’m trying to tell you. Dump tweeted NFL players talmbout if they know people they want pardoned, let him know. Shidddddd that could be 1000s of friends and family of NFL players.
Kilpatrick, who served as Detroit mayor from 2001 to 2008, also placed his father and other family members on the city’s payroll, as well as enriched his friends who helped him get elected.

Based on these points, Dump may see Kilpatrick as a kindred spirit.
Brother Kwame did not use his power for good. He had all his family up in office and ran Detroit into the ground. No empathy from here.
it’s only been 5 years damn thief, his a$$ needs to do another 15 to even have the audacity to ask to commute his sentence. Kirkpatrick was a horrible man , made Detroit broke and the city still can’t recover and even got that woman killed.
He was a modern day Stringer Bell, he needs to serve the full sentence and shut up at least he will be alive when he comes out.Many ppl live to see 70
Auntie can we get a post about LeBron’s mama’s ex who said he’s writing a book telling that Bron & Bey are SECRET LOVERS?! And he’s got a secret baby with a news reporter? And he treats Savannah like GARBAGE? PLEEAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEE?????????
They seem to have a lot in common, putting people on the payroll that don’t belong…
They see each other. (NeNe voice)
look at Trumps skin in that pic,, YUUCKKKKK
Nope, sorry, not helping to promote that fake trash.
that Bron & Bey are SECRET LOVERS?
_______________________________________
I’d believe this if he said Bron and Rhianna are secret lovers….cause Rhianna wanna give Bron some puss bad af.
I did hear he had an affair with a reporter years ago, but nothing came out of the story…
*sips tea*
Dear Kwame:
Oh Kwame. Stop playing. STOP.PLAY-YING
Nigga I followed your whole entire saga from start to finish bruh. And thanks to Freep (Detroit while a sad city here of late, still has one of the best newspapers in the US) they even were emailing folks updates on your niggatry for YEARS afterwards. I might have one in my email TODAY about this.
Your ass had about 2-3 chances. You violated probation. You didnt want to pay back the restitution money. Like…NO. Fukk you and the family of political thieves you derive from. FOMF. Keep holding the soap homie.
Your sister in Christ,
Me
But you report fake….you know what. Nevermind.
Trump already used his one-time get out of jail free (BLACK) card. Thanks for playing. Try again.
niggatry ?
Trump is slick. He implied that NFL players know a LOT of people in prison. ?
Who did he kill? The white woman killed her nephew because they were having an affair and got 2 years.
Kwame, Trump already used his onlty get out a jail free card on a black person. You asked too late homie. Maybe next year
*Kayne shurgs*
We typed the exact same thing. Great minds and shyt…LOL
He deserves to stay in there for all those back & forth texts he and his lover sent. Back then texts weren’t free and cost the taxpayers plenty. With they nasty talkin selfs.
‘niggatry’. You need to copyright that cuz it is AWESOME!
Chile…
Mr. Kilpatrick, your best bet is to get a hold of as many NFL niggas as you can and tell them to put your name in when they send all the other names of other niggas they want pardoned by Dump since he told them to send him some names of people they think should be freed.
“With they nasty talkin selfs”. tee hee… they were talking nasty huh? Smh.
This is actually funny af
Exactly.
I can not make this shit up.
YASS!!! But you know Savannah must sleep with both eyes open waiting on RiRi to make a move lol.. First I’m hearing about the reporter but they’re saying no one who knew was surprised that she had his baby. *sips tea too*
LOL
Hell nawl…Next on the docket!
Kwame treated Detroit city hall like a damn club bringing in his family like he was the head of a mafia family…He basically ran that city into the ground instead of doing the right thing. He is a coward and benefited on the backs of others who had hope in him. Clown…keep his barrel head ass in prison…
wtf happened to the stripper named Strawberry/Tamara Green Kwame??? What happened to her that night? Fukk you
I had to mess with you.
….Kilpatrick is “ready (mentally, emotionally, spiritually) to go home! Makes it sound like he was off somewhere doing great things for humanity and now he’s all good and energized to come back to Detroit. And that Detroit should be happy and excited!!
Him and “freaky Chris”
I know I’d be sleeping with both eyes open and knife under my pillow if Rhianna publicly expressed she wanted my man. Me and Rhianna would have to fight. LMAO
I’m actually not mad at Kwame for bringing his family in, white folk do it all the time, look at the White House. But after that, that brawny azz nigga thought he was living in a daily episode of The Wire.
Lol, she was a pretty lady. I know she hate she ever got involved with him.
Cause when I went to visit Detroit for the first time back in 2011, that city looked like a third world country. The red lights didn’t work half the time, the street lights didnt work, the houses had been burned down. It looked like a damn war zone. It was scary.
Not gonna happen, and in this case rightfully so. Detroit’s the one city I’d never go back to.
Hopefully, Trump responds Randy Jackson style with, “That’s a no for me dawg.”
Right!!! Cuz honey ain’t nobody turning that girl down!!
Really Kwame all the ish you did in the community. Sit down!

I’m cool with him bringing in his family. What’s not cool is how he used and abused the tax payer’s money. People work hard for their money and he was using it as his personal ATM. He deserves to be where he’s at IMO. If the governor of Illinois gotta do his time so should Kwame. Point blank period.
Not Gonna Happen, idiot.
Detroit. Ranked the WORST city in the US to live in. How many mayors of Detroit are in Jail? And what else do they all have in common?
Its like Idris publicly throwing his penis at me. What am I gonna do? Ignore him. SHEEEIIIITTTT.
LMAO.
LOL
lol
Uh uh!!
SHEEEIIIITTTT is RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOLL
Its like Idris publicly throwing his penis

Speaking of lawyers and jail…
Sources say Michael Cohen is about to be arrested.
lol yes
Ha!!!! Imagine that…..naw…homeboy is gonna stay behind bars…..nice try though.
GOODT! BUT in the grand scheme of things, it wont matter because Dump is going to pardon him.
Lol. Shole do look like him

People are so delusional these days.
Being convicted doesn’t automatically equate to guilt in an apartheid system that really never abolished slavery (check the 13th amendment & Ava Duvernay’s doc)..and conversely, there are PLENTY of white politicians who should be UNDER the prison but b/c they have the complexion for the protection and connections, they are walking around free looking like Grandpa Munster from the the old tv series, The Munsters. All they need is a bowtie & cape. I won’t say his name..but he also is so dirty, he couldn’t even capitalize on the outpouring of sympathy for 9/11 and bag the Republican Presidential Nomination, so you can imagine what kind of dirt is in his closet.
Log tf offfff!
This the hip hop mayor remember…cocaine and dead strippers smh

Kwame is as corrupt as Trump is – he may feel a kinship. Trump’s also looking for someone else black to pardon, since Muhammad Ali was never actually convicted of anything ?. Only thing is Kwame is not a sympathetic figure in the black community, so he won’t get Trump any black support.
Ok ok ok????

So Tiffany Haddish finally confirmed that Sanaa bit Bey huh? Alot of people speculated it was her. Well I’d rather Sanaa bite me than bite my man lol.
When/where did she confirm?
It’s in Vogue and a few other places.. just Google it.
Good luck with that, Potna.
These 2 are a mess. LMAO
A stripper named Tamara Greene. He helped cover it up and/or ordred her hit it is widely believed by many including officials but they could not prove. I dont care about Becky killing Jed. I do not.
“Greene’s case stems from the fabled, oft-denied but never-proven party at the Manoogian Mansion in the fall of 2002.
Greene, 27, also known by the stage name “Strawberry, was a stripper. It’s alleged she attended the Kilpatrick party and got into an altercation with the then-Mayor’s wife, Carlita Kilpatrick, who was unhappy with her presence and proximity to her husband.
Greene was gunned down in a drive-by shooting the following April.”
http://www.mlive.com/news/detroit/index.ssf/2013/04/tamara_greene_attorney_says_he.html
He sure won’t get him any sympathy. Kwame and his whole klan are crooks.
He’s getting what he deserves. Is it me or does blacks always get sent away for those kinds of charges
He better ask kimye to ask chump.
Carlita took care of her…
Word by word all Facts!
Oh many whites but also plenty of blacks. Blacks just tryin to get their 40 acres and a donkey chile.
There is no slavery in America.
No apartheid in America.
Ava Duvernay and the truth have never met. Docs used to be somewhat truthful. now they’re ridden with propaganda and lies.
None of the nonsense (really, crazy nonsense) you posted changes the facts about Detroit. And yes, when you’ve been convicted, you’ve been found guilty.
And his damn arrogance is what gonna keep him in there. His parents fucked him up.
???
Pretty? Christine Beatty looked like Mrs. Ed clone hybrid and had a fucked up entitled attitude.
What’s he thinking ? Everybody in jail is spiritually physically and mentally ready to go home. Can’t be out here CRIMING and thinking ain’t nothing gone happen to you. Tuh ?
you love to shame/discredit people that look like you
Daamnnn I didn’t think he got that much time. Sir, your ass will be right there in 2037. Find a nurse or therapist and just hump all day like before getting locked up..Trump ain’t thinking bout you.
Angry Man…one of my favorite episodes of Martin LOL
I can’t even laugh at that… my hair looks EXACTLY like that right now!!!
I’m CRINE!?

Kilpatrick is right where he belongs.
Next.
Once Orange Julius finds out how many Blacks Kwame Kilpatrick screwed, a commutation and full pardon shouldn’t be far away.
Nah nigga you in the right place.
Yeah.. like Kwame taking only $1 a year as pay, right?
And Kwame watching Detroit unemployment go down to 1960’s levels, right?
D’oh!
Girl I LOVE it!!!!!! Myra said “That man don’t know you!!” DEFINITELY one of my faves too
:-). I holler every time.
Do ya time homie ?????
I just pulled out my aloe plant to rub on my head.
I thought Cheeto Mussolini was a good one but I like Orange Julius even better!!
He thinks he is.
Put your big boy pants on & complete your goddamn sentence, if you live that long. Take the time to marinate on your corrupted ways and how your choices got you where you are!
I just told myself that I MUST do my maximum hydration this weekend. This humidity has my looking just like that chimp.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d45101b448072afbada6dbd7a3c84863e7abe61fdf9ca28d2167f7eeb4faf73d.jpg I was so serious!!
Martin called him Richard Roundtree and started doing those kicks everyone was cracking up Myra couldn’t even keep a straight face LOL…
Oooh I’m so glad you said this.. Myra was flat out laughing!!! She could not even cover it.. that’s what I love about that show.. Martin would be laughing at his own self!
She was to me. I just googled some recent pics ( guess they recent) and she looks… tired, maybe *whistles out the room*
Yes I miss those type of shows…that episode and DMV blues are still my favorites from Martin…”Hey Almond Brown let me help you wit ya lil test” LOLOLOLOL
he thinks he’s dinesh d’sousa?? eff outta here scammer
28 years for “extortion, bribery, conspiracy and racketeering”?
Sounds a bit much to me. Seems like even a lot of rapists and killers don’t get that much time.
Lol
Don’t drop the soap. Lol!
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!!!
He doesn’t have the power to pardon state crimes, which they are.
Oh my gawd! LMBAOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!
WOW!!! I didn’t know he got a life sentence!!! You roses are going hard on the brotha talking about do ya time!!!!!! LOLLOLLOL!!!!! Does he really deserve to be in jail for that long?
Snicker…
Governor out in CT got 7 years for doing the same exact thing
Your hair looks good!!!!!!
Whuuut???? This is going to be interesting…
This says it all…
People kill people and don’t get 28 years. I think it’s an excessive sentence. They made an example of him.
Kwame, I apologize but Trump has moved on to his next photo op.
They sure did!!! They made an example out of him so that Black Folks will think twice before doing the sneaky stuff that they do…
I followed this man through his downfall. For whatever reason, he started feeling immune to the law. Doing stupid stuff. Does his crimes justify 28 years in prison? I can’t answer that…..but I do know he just kept doing ONE SHADY THING AFTER ANOTHER!!!
Well thank you!! Still go the same hairstyle as that chimp lol
Okay get out my head cuz the DMV episode reminds me of this one and I LOVE IT TOO!!! That’s so funny! That’s another one.. Martin wants to laugh so badly at Almond Brown.. He had to keep his composure.. Ooh you got me laughing right now!
Rapists and killers should get a lot more time then.
“Babe, a pig in the city”
“There’s a pink thingy at the door”
Great movie.
This man is a perfect example of how, arrogance, greed and an over inflated ego will destroy you. Kwame had it all and literally threw it away on BS.
#privilege
Very powerful message
Agreed! I know some who raped two women by gunpoint and confessed to it and got 15 years! smh
Let him rot in jail. He stole from his own people who are already broke.
“This man is a perfect example of how, arrogance, greed and an over inflated ego will destroy you.”
————————————
Or you become President of the United States.
That’s the problem – he committed “white collar crimes” and was a black man.
I was referring to Michael Cohen not Kilpatrick.
No fat ass stay where you at! We trusted you and you fucked us over, had everyone fooled ??
LOLLOLLOLLOL!!!!!
Yes. He was trying to copycat what most whites in that position have done plenty of times, but he forgot it doesn’t work that way for us.
They’ll kick Trump out of his own country club if he freed a black man… this dude doesn’t know how all this works…
He got too comfortable…
Using his charisma again to charm: but, but…I found god & such a change man now. Please commute my 28yr sentence, forgive me & get me up out of this joint. lol
Federal, local or state tax fraud is no joke. He deceived & stole from everyone, especially his own poor people. -finding god is just another form of deception to manipulate others. I’m not buying it!
28yrs is not a life’s sentence. Alice was given a life sentence without possibility of any parole just for being a lookout for drug dealers.
Um, you left out grand larceny…theft! Did he not steal $800,000 of Detroit’s impoverished taxpayers money and charge the city credit cards to help fund a luxury lifestyle for himself?? -that’s in addition to what you mentioned.
Tax fraud is messing with the feds. -ya gotta know that. 28yrs is not a bit much.
He needs to at least serve half of his 28yrs before crying: buss me up outta here, I’m a changed man who found god or whatever with no proof whatsoever. ijs
Those people were not working in a sworn government high position either. Neither did the commit federal tax fraud in addition to a number of other things. -a whole other type of crime.
It’s just like the White major of Chicago Blagojevich who faced 8yrs more being tacked onto his 14yrs prison time for committing a similar crime to Major Kilpatrick of Detroit.
Neither did the rapists steal $800k in tax money from the impoverished taxpayers of Detroit who voted to hire him to look out for their best interest. -different types of crimes are compared in their own light.
Shit I forgot about him.
Shit 28 years!!!! Damn did he kill people too
Lawd YES!!! The whole clan is oily as HELL. Even a few of those text with his momma were shady.
I understand public mistrust and theft in govt can be extreme HOWEVER actually REFORM of a rapist vs public official should be taken in account. Maybe he should have gotten 28 years for all the harm he did to an entire city that is STILL recovering…, but this guy who has ALWAYS been mean to the bone and terrorized two women with guns and other things that we know about for fun walks out after 7 for good behavior??!!
Yes Prison reform is definitely needed for all crimes….
Unless it’s beneficial to him you can forget it.
lol!!! ok.
he is where he belongs
LMBO!
Wow, that slipped past me lol.
Alice served almost 22yrs of life sentence. This man has only served about 2.5yrs of his 28yrs in prison and already whining about boss buss me up outta here…I’m a changed man now who found a god in prison. smh
I’m sure there are way more prisoners who are more worthy or deserving of a limited number of prison commutes than him.
-let that commute go to somebody who really shouldn’t be there anymore, if not at all in prison. He needs to put in more time to show that he’s really sorry. ijs
Met some people from Detroit last year they talked about how Kwame ran Detroit into the ground…
I don’t feel sorry for him
Hahaha,maaan the only commute you gon get is being commuted from one prison to the nexx. No clemency for you kwamie.
Everybody bout that life til it’s time to sport that fashion forward jump suit. Nah playa, that sentence you’re serving is all you.
No, just their spirits.
It’s cold in the D…. His ass needs to stay behind bars… I bet he ain’t sorry for what he did but sorry he got caught….. Please and umm Ms. Sandra that “please help me” folded hands pic is a classic Sandra move. I see you!! ???
I’m sorry he needs to do his time. He did nothing for the people of that city greedy bastard
Right on
My friend’s husband killed his cousin got out and years later met her and killed her too. I agree.
If he dont sit his shady ass down somwhere in that prison and do his time???? please NEXT..
At all!!!
And a whole city black folk who are alreeady struggling
Thank you!!!!!
He liked living off the people and he still is just in a more controlled fashion.
Shame deserves harsh punishment. Dare I say that 28 years may be too harsh when white bankers stole more millions upon millions and none of them have seen a jail cell? Wells Fargo execs got retirement packages and not jail sentence. I think they should cut Kwame’s sentence down to 20 years.
The one with the hat on tho….
Still does. Sad ? Some of the old folks worked their whole lives to watch their homes and neighborhoods plummet. No jobs, pot holes everywhere and good luck getting your trash picked up. Public transportation is a joke. Mass school closures. Entire neighborhoods just desolate.…Eff Kwame and his folks. ??
Woooaah 28 years is a long sentence. Child Molesters, Murders and Wall Street Bankers did not get even a quarter of the time.
This man was a terrible disgrace as mayor. With all the damage that he’s responsible for he deserves to serve his time. He had an opportunity to make a difference but instead let power and abhorrent greed guide him as mayor.
I remember his case, and I also remember how respected and trusted he was by the people who lifted him up and made him mayor, then he just drained that city’s desperately needed resources. Not only that he was thuggish as hell! Did you see his American Greed story?
Kilpatrick sound like a mafia boss with those charges. Naw, bruh you need to sit.
28 year sentence, you serve 5 of those years and want to be freed! Bruh………plz have a seat for the next 23 yrs.
Aunty is mad shady LOL LOL LOL
Whaaaat???? I am definitely going to find and watch this story!! All I really know about him is that celebrities and bigwigs always invited him to events. I figured he was doing great things for the Black Folks in his city!!! smh…
It’s damn near a life sentence. He’s gonna be almost 80 — if he lives that long. Have they said when (or if) he will be eligible for parole?
Very slick….
Born and raised in Detroit love my city but Detroit was ran down way before Kwame got his hands in the pot he just put the nail in the coffin with all his BS.
Nope lol
As a politician, he should have been exemplary. He wasn’t, now he has to pay…
28 yrs is over sentenced for WhiteCollar Crimes. Plenty of White politicians go to jail for stealing much more than him. He deserved to go to jail. Not for 28 yrs. He didn’t kill or rape. My opinion.
“boiii if you dont getcho….”
Kwame “The Gorilla” Kilpatrick sit yo block head ass down somewhere u done barely done 4 years
Nah… Ninja you don’t ride with the Mason Club of Satanism.
No Commute for you! your DONE! IN 2037
