Details
The Kilpatrick and Beatty text-messaging scandal is a political-sex scandal emerging from a sexual relationship between Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick (D) and his chief of staff Christine Beatty. The revelation of this extra-marital affair was confirmed in text messages exchanged between Kilpatrick and Beatty. The text messages appear to contradict testimony that Kilpatrick and Beatty gave at a trial in 2007 in regard to whether they had an affair and had fired an officer for investigating the mayor's behavior. The City of Detroit settled the lawsuit for $8.4 million based on the recommendation of Kilpatrick and the City of Detroit law department. The news has led to Beatty resigning in February 2008 and political leaders and citizens calling for Kilpatrick to resign. An investigation led to the filing of charges against Kilpatrick and Beatty on March 24, 2008, with more charges possible against others. On September 4, 2008, Kilpatrick pled guilty to obstruction of justice and no contest to assault on a police officer. As part of his plea deal, he has agreed to step down as mayor, pay $1 million in restitution to the city, and serve 120 days of jail time.
