Kwame is f***ed! 12 charges just got sent down for him and his paramour. He's got until 7am tomorrow to turn himself in or he's gonna be arrested.

YEAH!

Whoa...what's that about? What are all the charges against him?

Ouch...bad news for Detroit. Another screwed up mayor down the tube.

Man, that city just keeps on getting rougher and rougher.

Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has resigned from his position as Detroit Mayor.

In a letter sent to Gov. Jennifer Granholm early Thursday afternoon, the mayor said his resignation will be effective Sept. 18, 2008.

This comes hours after Kilpatrick accepted a plea deal in a perjury case and assault charges that forced an end to his tenure as the city's mayor and will send him to jail.
