Christine Beatty is Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's Secret Affair (Photos)





Christine Beatty and Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick

Detroit Mayorand his chief of staff,, have been caught red-handed in a lie about the nature of their relationship. Making matters worse, the two lied under oath, exposing them to felony perjury charges.

After Deputy Police Chief Gary Brown filed suit accusing Kilpatrick of retaliating against him because of his role in an internal affairs investigation of the mayor's security team that potentially could have exposed an affair, Mayor Kilpatrick and Christine Beatty denied having a sexual relationship during the trial. After months of investigations, records of text messages between the two prove otherwise.

Examining over 14,000 text messages, the Free Press discovered the mayor and Beatty were exchanging personal messages almost daily. Both were married at the time. Beatty has since divorced.



"I'm madly in love with you," Kilpatrick wrote on Oct. 3, 2002. "I hope you feel that way for a long time," Beatty answered. "In case you haven't noticed, I am madly in love with you, too!" Other texts contain sexual content, like this exchange on April 8, 2003: Beatty: "And, did you miss me, sexually?" Kilpatrick: "Hell yeah! You couldn't tell. I want some more."

"I've been dreaming all day about having you all to myself for 3 days. Relaxing, laughing, talking, sleeping and making love."

On Oct. 16, 2002, Kilpatrick wrote Beatty If found to have committed perjury, Kilpatrick and Beatty could face up to 15 years in state prison.

I doubt Mayor Kilpatrick will be running for re-election.
