Detroit building director out over relationship with contractor
So Kim James has resigned...I wonder if this is connected to what was discussed in this thread --->

Genesyxx reported in that thread that detroituncovered.com wrote:
"We got information last week that apparently there are some favors being exchanged that involved the demolition of Ford Auditorium. First there was the issue of a minority contractor who was allegedly providing gifts to mayoral appointees who our source alleged are Kim James of Buildings and Safety and Karla Henderson, group executive for Mayor Bing. When the gifts ended the opportunity to obtain the demolition contract for Ford Auditorium allegedly went away too."
Thanks for linking to that earlier thread. I have found John Bennett's work on Detroit Uncovered to be important. He is careful and he's on to something most of the time. He was the canary in the coalmine of the corrupt KK administration- losing his job and livelihood because he would not compromise.
I don't agree with the characterization of Bennett's work by Lowell and Woodward's Cousin. Bennett appears to be a pretty good investigative reporter who was dismissed almost jealously in that thread. His work is different than this discussion thread. If he is a muckraker - well the famous journalism muckrakers were called that by the very people who had a lot to hide.
