This is the sort of move that makes those naturally inclined to distrust the government even more convinced they've got something to hide. While the elected, acting and sitting Mayor of the City of Detroit prepares to go to trial facing twelve counts including eight felony indictments that could land him in the clink for fifteen years, charges directly related to a cover-up by his administration, the good folks at city hall took cover-ups one step further this past weekend.
The family of dancer Tamara Greene, one Norman Yatooma, has retained council and is investigating her still unsolved murder.
There are a lot of unsolved murders in Detroit but this one is unique for one particular reason. Greene was rumored to have been involved in a little scuffle with the Mayor's wife at a wild party at the Manoogian Mansion. Rumors. I don't know if they're true. Frankly, I'd always assumed they weren't. Attorney General Mike Cox investigated the supposed party and concluded himself that it never happened.
It's a big stretch for me to think that it not only did happen but there was a dancer, she did fight with the Mayor's wife and that that may have some connection as to why she wound up dead.
Read on . . .
It's suddenly less of a stretch, though, the way the City of Detroit is playing games with her family's council and, against court orders, refusing to turn over evidence. The Detroit News reports:
Yatooma said Monday he has received neither the pager "pin numbers" nor the homicide file. He said he would file a motion in response to the missed deadline, most likely asking the city defendants to "show cause" why Rosen should not find them in contempt.
Friday was the deadline for the city to provide Yatooma with user identification numbers to help SkyTel supply records so they can be privately reviewed by U.S. magistrate judges to determine their relevance. Friday also was the deadline for the city to provide Yatooma with a copy of the police homicide file on Greene.
So what we've all concluded lately is maybe the crookedest city government in the United States of America just added another big crook. So to speak. Now they're not even bothering to turn over evidence or to comply with court orders? Begs the question... what have they got to hide? And another... is there anything at all about which we can trust them?
And in a dizzying bit of irony, the lawyer working for the city on this case, obfuscating justice and potentially protecting murderers is none other than Mayer Morganroth, seen here with another famous client of his, convicted serial killer and 9th District lefty congressional candidate Jack Kevorkian. (I guess if you're going to try to get someone off the hook for murder you might as well hire a guy who's spent his career defending mass murderers.) Asked by the News about the contempt motion Morganroth:
...said Yatooma is litigating the case in the news media and that's inappropriate. "If he's going to file a motion, tell him to file it," Morganroth said. "I can't control either his mouth or his methods."
THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is ironic. This is a lawyer who made his career defending a man who claims to have killed well over one-hundred people, in clear violation of the law, by arguing the merits of the law in, you guessed it, the news media.
Nice try Mayer. And Mr. Mayor. If you'd rather have the Greene case litigated in the court of law then, novel idea, comply with court orders, turn over documents and let in a little bit of sunshine. What have you got to hide, besides the truth?
