DETROIT, MI — Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is being investigated by federal officials after an online fundraiser appeared to raise 800-thousand-dollars for he and his family for a home in Florida.
Kilpatrick still owes Detroit just over 193-thousand-dollars according to court documents. Investigators are looking to see if Kilpatrick has been making payments.
The former mayor says they are not seeking money for a home and the fundraiser was “strictly for baby shower gifts.”
