Kwame Kilpatric, Detroits most famous Irishmen, is in the news again.  He violated the terms of his bond release by going to Canada for a visit.  Because of this action, he was thrown in jail for a night and forced to wear an electronic tether.  In all fairness to Kwame, I doubt that he knew that Canada was a country.

He has now been charged with 10 felonies.  In Michigan, the governor has the right to remove any elected official from office if they are convicted of a felony.

The ten felony charges have been filed by the Republican Attorney General.  Kwame and the governor are Democrats.  If Kwame is convicted, the governor will be pressured to remove him from office.

If Kwame continues as he has been, he will end up being the mayor of Washington DC.
