Judge to city: Why not save stripper messages?February 8, 2008

A federal judge told the City of Detroit on Thursday to explain why he shouldn't order a telecommunications firm to preserve the text messages of 34 city employees who may know something about the investigation of the killing of a stripper who may have danced at a long-rumored party at the mayoral Manoogian Mansion in the fall of 2002.

U.S. District Judge Gerald Rosen gave the city two weeks to tell him why he shouldn't order Skytel of Jackson, Miss., to save messages of Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, Police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings and other officials.

Birmingham lawyer Norman Yatooma, who represents the 14-year-old son of the dancer in a lawsuit against the city, wants the messages so he can see whether city officials derailed the homicide investigation of Tamara Greene's 2003 slaying, which remains unsolved.

Officials have denied scuttling the investigation and the existence of the party.

On both detroituncovered.com and on am1200 I have heard people (and read in the comments) about the significance of the yellow tie that Kwame wore when he had his "apology" speech. Why was the yellow tie significant? I think even Mr. Riddle mentioned it, but no one explains it.

You got me on that one. I'm not quite sure what it symbolizes. Perhaps not good taste? lol

Mike Cox needs to be replaced also as our AG....He must have never investigated to find out anything about "The Party"....If that is the best he can do, he needs to replaced too!

Mike Cox is cool with Kwames dad Bernard Kilpatrick and he wouldn't come close to spoiling that relationship. Which is why it is so important that Kim Worthy steps up and does the right thing.
