x-Detroit Mayor Kilpatrick to wear tether for failing to disclose $2K gift

Detroit — Kwame Kilpatrick was fitted with a GPS tether Thursday, barred from traveling to see his family in Texas and placed on home confinement — punishment for failing to disclose a $2,000 gift from a Chicago pastor.

The state is continuing to investigate and could send the former Detroit mayor to prison for two years if officials conclude he violated parole or received additional cash gifts. State and Wayne County officials are concerned Kilpatrick is hiding assets that could be applied toward the $855,000 restitution the former Detroit mayor owes the city.
