In a flurry of pardons and commutations in President Donald Trump’s last hours in office, one name in particular stuck out to Detroiters: their former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. On today’s episode, we’ll talk to a longtime Detroit journalist about the mark Kilpatrick and his conviction left on the city and what might be next now that he’s a free man.   GUEST: Chastity Pratt, education bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal Stateside’s theme music is by 14KT.
