Kwame Kilpatrick: I'm never coming back to Detroit

Detroit — Kwame Kilpatrick has disavowed his ties to the Motor City and doesn't plan on moving back, according to the former mayor's emails obtained by The Detroit News.

The emails cement Kilpatrick's split from the city that fueled his political rise and reveals claims that he is concerned about his safety in Detroit while standing trial on racketeering charges.

"I am a Texas resident…I have no intentions of ever residing here again," Kilpatrick wrote in a Sept. 13 email to his parole agent obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. "I'm often thought of as a Detroiter, but I am not. My life, family and residency is in Texas."
