- Reports came out last week that former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was going to be released early from prison.
- Those reports appear to have been false.
- A spokesman for the Federal Bureau of Prisons said officials reviewed the case and refused to release him to home confinement due to COVID-19.
- His expected release date from the low-security prison in Oakdale, LA is January 2037.
- Kwame Kilpatrick was convicted on 24 counts of public corruption including bribery, racketeering and fraud.
