DETROIT, (AP) -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick filed a lawsuit Wednesday against a lawyer who leaked racy text messages to the Detroit Free Press and kicked off a scandal that brought down Kilpatrick's administration and sent him to jail.
The lawsuit, filed in Wayne County Circuit Court, cites recent testimony by attorney Mike Stefani before a disciplinary board that he leaked the messages to the newspaper.
The suit says Stefani violated a confidentiality agreement requiring him to turn over all copies of the explosive messages in exchange for settling police whistle-blower lawsuits involving three ex-Detroit officers he represented.
James Thomas, Kilpatrick's attorney, told the Detroit Free Press that any damages would go to the city of Detroit. The lawsuit seeks $2.666 million in damages.

$2.666 million
Oh my, 666, wonder how they came up with that?

A diversionary tactic meant to distract from the greater ‘iceberg’.
