I'm not a Kilpatrick supporter - he needs to pay his restitution per what he agreed to in lieu of being in violation of the said probation. However, I bristled to see Channel 4's door-to-door coverage, street identification, address number camera panning of those who wrote money orders/ checks towards his recent payment.
Many of the home dwellers ignored the door, however, one man and his family members came out on their porch and spoke out in complaint that his home was being identified on broadcast last night. That interview is absent from the web link video.
Names, AND street addresses? And a full photos of homes?
The argument is that this public record, but the home address too? Why was Channel 4 the only station to do this?
Of course they went to Carolyn Kilpatrick's "office" but that is a public building....
I am sure any future contributors will be sure to use a bogus address as some did per the report...
