First we had O.J. Simpson and a glove that didn’t fit so they had to acquit.

Now we have Kwame Kilpatrick stashing cash in shoes of different hues.

Well, I’m assuming he has different colored shoes. The ex-mayor of Detroit was famous for wearing an endless supply of expensive suits. Surely he has shoes to match -- maybe fewer shoes than Imelda Marcos, but more than me. Testimony at Kilpatrick’s federal trial shows that Kilpatrick had a habit of keeping money in his shoes. Not while he was wearing them, mind you, but while the shoes were stored at home.

Internal Revenue Service agent Ron Sauer testified about the possibility of Kilpatrick stashing a significant amount of money inside those shoes. “Depending on how big the shoe is,” Sauer said, amazingly, with a straight face.
