Kid glove treatment?: Kilpatrick released on bond after accused of assault
Stating, "I have locked up defendants for approaching or saying things to witnesses for a lot less . . ." a Detroit 36th District Court judge freed Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick on $75,000 bond after he was accused of assaulting a Wayne County Sheriff's deputy who attempted to serve a subpoena to a witness in Kilpatrick's impending Wayne County Circuit Court felony trial. Judge Ronald Giles, who's impartiality in the Kilpatrick "test message" scandal has been questioned by Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy, allowed Kilpatrick to leave court Friday after Kilpatrick posted a 10 percent cash bond and took the first of random drug tests required for his release from jail. In releasing Kilpatrick, Giles cited the mayor's behavior as "irrational," chiding Kilpatrick that he was an attorney who should understand the weight of the charges against him.

Kid glove treatment? -- Kilpatrick free on bond after being accused of assault
Stating: "I have locked up defendants for approaching and saying things to witnesses for a lot less, let alone touching them," a Detroit 36th District Court judge freed Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick on $75,000 bond Friday after the city's leader was accused of shoving a Wayne County deputy who stood on a Kilpatrick relative's porch. Kilpatrick was accused of physically interfering with Detective Gerald White as he attempted to serve a subpoena for Bobby Ferguson, a Kilpatrick friend, to appear in Wayne County Circuit Court as a prosecution witness in Kilpatrick's trial on eight felony counts. White was discussing the whereabouts of Ferguson with a man who said he was a relative when Kilpatrick rushed from the home shouting a stream of profanities and racial epithets. The Ferguson relative is married to Kilpatrick's sister, Ayanna. White told 36th District Court Judge Ronald Giles that he approached the home when he saw a truck from Ferguson enterprises parked in the driveway. Bobby Ferguson is owner of a Detroit area construction firm which is alleged to be tied to various city deals after Kilpatrick urged vendors performing work for the city to look into Ferguson's firm for services.

According to the women, he also said he couldn't "really hire you due to your scarf." However, such direct evidence won't necessarily be dispositive.
