DETROIT -- After nearly seven years in an exclusive 11th-floor office, former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick will see the city through cloudy, narrow windows in a cell on the second floor of the Wayne County jail.
Kilpatrick appears in court Tuesday to receive a 120-day sentence, the punishment for a scandal of sex, lies and text messages that was a millstone around the neck of a region already staggering from the woes of the auto industry.
With good behavior, Kilpatrick could be out in February after 100 days. He will also get a bill from the jail: $60 a day.
