No deal: Beatty heading to trial
Prosecutor toughened offer; legal experts say mayor's ex-aide waited too long to avoid harsh punishment.
Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's former top aide, Christine Beatty, will take her chances in court after rejecting a plea deal Monday in her criminal case stemming from the text message scandal.
"What's next? Acquittal, and don't be surprised when that happens," Beatty's lawyer, Mayer Morganroth, said after three hours of closed-door plea-bargaining Monday in the chambers of Wayne Circuit Judge David Groner.

Aquittal? ..HA HA HA HA HA HA .....sigh...thats funny.
Mayer Morganroth must be so used to feeding Beatty such a line of crap he has decided it looks delicious and must be eating some of it himself.
Further voices of reason continue...

It isn't unusual for a prosecutor's plea deal to include harsher terms after being rejected, said Larry Dubin, professor at the University of Detroit Mercy Law School. But the three-month increase in jail time seemed steep, he said, and may be an indication of Worthy's confidence in convicting Beatty at trial.
"More typically, when you make a last-ditch effort to resolve a matter, you do not increase the demands, but rather attempt to resolve the differences. So I can only assume the prosecution, as of this point, is willing to go to trial," Dubin said. "It may seem to (Beatty) and her lawyers that her only opportunity to do better than the prosecutor's offers is to go to trial."
The perjury case against Beatty also may be stronger than the case against Kilpatrick because questions put to Beatty during her testimony at a police whistle-blower lawsuit trial last year had been more direct, Dubin said.
Beatty's lawyers are likely to play for sympathy before a jury by portraying her as a victim of the mayor's ambition or his affections, he said.
"She certainly appears vulnerable," Dubin said. "All of the women involved with the mayor could be perceived as victims."

Christine Beatty was no victim, far from it.
Aside from servicing him sexually, she was the mayor's right hand tool, the hammer for nails he pointed out needing hammering.
The circus continues and the cost grows...
Morganroth added that he is unconcerned about the possibility of Kilpatrick testifying at that trial.
"I don't think we'd be hurt by the mayor," Morganroth said.
Beatty made no comments Monday as she pushed her way through a crowd of reporters leaving the courtroom. Her pastor, the Rev. Ronald Griffin followed, waving his hand to move the crowd. "Please. Respect! Please," Griffin said.
Morganroth declined to say what the sticking point in negotiations might be, except that the offers were "unreasonable." Although he said he had no quarrel with the four assistant prosecutors with whom he negotiated Monday, he made a reference to Worthy's personal impact on the process by adding he was frustrated "with what one person is doing."

Christine having her reverend follow her around like a lap dog cracks me up, she should have had him with her in the hotel rooms as she was servicing the mayor...he probably could have down some good then....she is wearing him like a rag of humility now and he is going along with it for whatever reason...probably is filling his congregations seats about now and his face is in the paper and on the news...certainly a man of God.

Well Thanks for portraying yourself as the victim Christine, I am sure the authentic victimized women of America appreciate the ruse you are using now in court.
You see as a woman of color whom was a role model, you had and have an obligation to all the other women of color who struggle daily against real injustice, real hardship, real prejudice...your continuing example of riding this dog and pony show out to it's just conclusion just shows how far from a role model you actually were.
It's been a fun ride but just in time for the holidays it looks like your goose is cooked.
Welcome To Detroit
