Speaking of crime families... Art Blackwell, son of former Highland Park Mayor Robert Blackwell has plead guilty to "one count of safe keeping of public money -- a two-year misdemeanor -- after a three-year legal battle stemming from accusations that he embezzled money from the city."

This would seem to be better than getting convicted of embezzlement, a felony. However, I find the timing interesting. This story will be swamped the Kwame tsunami of news.

One could argue that the Blackwell's in their microcosm of Highland Park were role models for the Kilpatrick crime family.

And isn't is interesting that the fans of EFM don't point to this success story?
