Also in 2001, taxpayers paid a $16,000 bill for Kwame Kilpatrick's wife, Carlita, to conduct 10 conflict resolution seminars at Inkster High School. At the time, Kwame Kilpatrick was still in the state House and readying a campaign for mayor. His father, Bernard Kilpatrick, was chief of staff for Ficano's predecessor.

In depositions for his lawsuit, Dunleavy alleges his former staffers couldn't document that the conflict resolution sessions occurred. Also in depositions for Dunleavy's suit, former Department of Children and Family Services Director Ralph Kinney said he worried Carlita Kilpatrick was paid for doing nothing.

Inkster school officials did not return calls for comment. Smith said "the work was performed." Her agency subcontracted the sessions to another nonprofit, which hired Kilpatrick.

Smith supplied The News with a canceled check and work invoices showing Kilpatrick was paid $250 an hour for the sessions. Laws protecting the confidentiality of delinquents, however, prohibit the county from making public sign-in sheets of the sessions, Smith said.

The mayor's spokesman, James Canning, declined comment.

Great, so collecting tax dollars for doing nothing isn't anything new for the Kilpatricks.

If the mayor didn't care about our youth, he wouldn't date them.

Kayne West sez, " Kwame Kilpatrick don't care about black people."
