Kwame Kilpatrick

In the Season 3 opening episode, Symantha joins Alysa to discuss Detroit’s former disgraced mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, who recently had his 28 year federal sentence commuted by President Trump. We talk about the various phases of scandals that ends with Kilpatrick’s federal conviction as well as whether or not 28 years is an excessive sentence for the crimes committed. All sources are located in show notes and any images will be posted on Instagram.
