The guy used his political influence to bully law enforcement. The guy showed disdain for the legal system with his obvious lies. Character counts for something in sentencing, and this guy doesn't have too much that's favorable in that department as well - what with his egomania, putting his interests over those of Detroit, not to mention all of the bad press for a city that already has it's more then it's share of economic problems.
On top of all of it, Kwame played the poor people for suckers. He could have done some real good, he could have helped them out, instead he's just an egomaniacal bully whose political career ends with a punchline.[/quote]
