Ex-Detroit mayor Kilpatrick leaves jail with job in sight
Former Detroit mayor Kilpatrick, 38 pounds lighter, walked from a downtown jail after a late night release. He did not speak to reporters as he heads to probation review and a Texas job interview before a Feb 9 court deadline. He faces five years on probation and restitution totaling about 1 million as he works to restart his life. His law license remains revoked and the scandal centers on text messages with Christine Beatty that contradicted testimony during a whistle blower trial.
