At least nine people have testified in a federal grand jury in Detroit that they paid the the father of ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick tens of thousands of dollars to try and land city contracts, the Detroit Free Press reported.
The paper reported that the father, Bernard Kilpatrick, ran a consulting firm called Maestro Associates. But the FBI believes he did no consulting and was really just paid for access to his son.
The paper reported that the FBI has been digging into the father’s finances and tapping his phone. Kwame Kilpatrick, who had been ousted on state charges after pleading guilty to obstruction of justice in connection with a phone text message scandal, is also being looked at by the FBI in connection with bribery.
