Detroit Strip Clubs: Ex-Detroit mayor’s father to testify in lawsuit
August 25, 2010 at 10:48 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsDETROIT — A lawyer says the father of former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has agreed to appear for a deposition in a civil lawsuit against his son and the city filed by the family of a slain stripper.
Birmingham attorney Norman Yatooma says Bernard Kilpatrick will be deposed on Aug. 31 at Yatooma’s office.
Yatooma represents Tamara Greene’s family in a federal lawsuit.
Greene was fatally shot in 2003, several months after reportedly performing at a rumored party at the Detroit mayoral mansion.
The lawsuit claims Kwame Kilpatrick and other city officials stifled a police investigation of her death.
Bernard Kilpatrick failed to appear two weeks ago for a deposition in Fort Worth, Texas, prompting Yatooma to ask a federal judge to cite him for contempt of court.

Birmingham — Bernard Kilpatrick, father of disgraced Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, has agreed to travel to Metro Detroit next week to be deposed in a lawsuit involving the death of an exotic dancer who allegedly performed at a rumored Manoogian Mansion party, said an attorney for the dancer’s family.
Norman Yatooma, the attorney representing the family of Tamara Greene, who allegedly danced at the long-rumored but never-proven party, said Bernard Kilpatrick has agreed to be deposed in Yatooma’s Birmingham office on Aug. 31.
Greene’s family is suing Kwame Kilpatrick and other city officials in federal court, claiming the Detroit Police investigation into Green’s April, 2003 drive-by murder was quashed. Bernard Kilpatrick failed to appear at a scheduled deposition two weeks ago in Fort Worth, Texas, where he now lives.
Detroit Strip Clubs: Former Mayor’s father to be deposed in stripper lawsuit
August 24, 2010 at 5:24 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsDETROIT (WXYZ) – After skipping out on the first scheduled deposition date, Bernard Kilpatrick has agreed to be questioned under oath about a murdered stripper.
Birmingham attorney Norman Yatooma confirms that the former Detroit Mayor’s father is scheduled to be deposed on Tuesday, August 31 at 10:00 a.m.
Yatooma is suing the City of Detroit and Kwame Kilpatrick, claiming they obstructed the investigation into the shooting death of Tamara Greene. Greene was rumored to have danced at a never-proven Manoogian Mansion party.
In the last few months, Yatooma has been wrapping up several high-profile depositions as the discovery phase of this lawsuit winds down. When Bernard Kilpatrick failed to show up at a scheduled deposition on August 12, Yatooma asked the judge to hold the elder Kilpatrick in contempt of court. The judge set a contempt hearing for August 31, but that would be canceled if Bernard Kilpatrick testifies under oath that same day in the deposition.

Judge denies city’s bid to file sealed motion to toss stripper lawsuit
Mike Wilkinson / The Detroit News
A federal judge has denied a request by the City of Detroit to file in secret its motion to dismiss the case involving the investigation of a murdered stripper.
Chief U.S. District Judge Gerald Rosen on Monday said the city must first write its brief for summary judgment and identify what parts must be filed under seal before he decides whether to keep it under seal. The city also wanted to exceed the court’s 20-page limit on the brief.
But Rosen said both requests were premature because the city had not yet drafted its motion. Instead, Rosen said he would consider an objection to the 20-page rule, as well as a request to file it under seal, once the motion has actually been drafted.

Christine Beatty finishes deposition in stripper case
Paul Egan / The Detroit News
Birmingham — Christine Beatty, who was chief of staff to former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, wrapped up her deposition late this afternoon in the federal lawsuit brought by the family of slain exotic dancer Tamara “Strawberry” Greene.
Beatty gave the first part of her deposition July 28, but between two to three of the allotted seven hours were scheduled for completion today. The deposition took place at the Birmingham office of Beatty’s attorney, Jeffrey Morganroth, who said it wrapped up around 6 p.m.
“Ms. Beatty has absolutely no information or facts that would support any of their claims,” Morganroth said after the deposition ended.
Greene, who was linked to a rumored party at the mayor’s Manoogian Mansion in the fall of 2002, was shot to death in Detroit on April 30, 2003. Her family is suing Kilpatrick and the city, alleging they obstructed the investigation of her unsolved murder. The defendants deny the allegation.

DETROIT (WXYZ) – Lawyers questioned Christine Beatty under oath for hours today as part of the slain stripper lawsuit. Beatty first testified back on July 28. This was day two of her testimony, with an extension of time that was granted by the court.
Attorney Norman Yatooma arrived for the deposition of Beatty weighed down with two huge briefcases, full of files.
“We’re just here to find out what Ms. Beatty doesn’t know, doesn’t remember, or can’t talk about,” Yatooma sarcastically told Action News Investigator Heather Catallo.
Yatooma is suing the City of Detroit and former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick – claiming they obstructed the investigation into the murder of Tamara Greene. Greene was an exotic dancer, who was shot to death in 2003. It’s been rumored that she danced at a never proven Manoogian Mansion party, where Kilpatrick’s wife, Carlita, allegedly assaulted Greene.

Posted on Aug 20, 2010 | by Carol Pipes
CHICAGO (BP)–”Our church plant is in the middle of one of the most dangerous areas of our city,” said John Smith, a church planting missionary in Pontiac, Mich.
Less than 25 miles from Detroit, Pontiac is a mini version of the city that often ranks as one of the top five most dangerous cities in the U.S. “We minister to people who are homeless, involved in prostitution and addicted to drugs. But our greatest area of ministry is to the city’s teen population,” Smith said.
Smith and his wife, Kia, are not strangers to the challenges of growing up in the inner city. Both grew up in Pontiac.
“Our mission field is right at home,” said Smith, who planted Shepherd’s Fold Baptist Church in the high school he attended as a teenager.

Detroit Strip Clubs: Deposition continues for ex-Kilpatrick aide Beatty
August 20, 2010 at 9:01 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsDeposition continues for ex-Kilpatrick aide Beatty
Associated Press – August 20, 2010 4:14 AM ET
DETROIT (AP) – The former top aide to ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick is expected to resume her deposition in a civil suit by the family of slain stripper Tamara Greene.
Christine Beatty is to meet Friday with attorney Norman Yatooma at her lawyers’ Southfield office. The first part of her deposition was given last month.
Yatooma represents Tamara Greene’s three children. Greene was fatally shot in 2003, several months after reportedly performing at a rumored wild party at the Detroit mayoral mansion.
The lawsuit says Kilpatrick and others stifled a police probe of the death.
Beatty was Kilpatrick’s chief of staff.
Explicit text messages with the married mayor on Beatty’s city-issued pager showed they lied in a separate civil case. Both were charged and served jail time.
