WASHINGTON — In the Motor City, Spring is near and scandal is in the air.
U.S. Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, 64, the mother of ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, has been subpoenaed to testify before a federal grand jury, the Detroit Free Press reported. She said Thursday that she is not the target of the probe.
What is known is that her son, who pleaded guilty to perjury in a text message scandal, and was forced from office, is under FBI investigation.
The Free Press recently reported that a contractor who pleaded guilty to corruption charges has told the feds that he gave the mayor bribe money in 2002.
