If Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick does not resign, the City Council of Detroit will force him out. That from an approval of a resolution telling the Mayor that is time to resign. This chain of events is directly related to the sex text message scandal between Kilpatrick and Christine Beatty his former Chief of Staff.
