January 20, 2010 - Today a federal grand jury returned a five-count indictment against DeDan C. Milton, 37, of Detroit, charging him with one count of conspiracy to commit bribery and extortion and two counts each of bribery and extortion, United States Attorney Barbara L. McQuade announced.
McQuade was joined in the announcement by Andrew G. Arena, Special Agent in Charge of the Detroit Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
DeDan Milton had served as an executive assistant to former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. The charges stem from the federal government’s investigation into bribes and kickbacks involving the sale of City of Detroit owned properties, including Camp Brighton in Livingston County and the Detroit Police Department’s 8th Precinct Station near West Grand River and Six Mile Road in Detroit.
Each extortion count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years and each bribery count a maximum of 10 years.
The investigation of this case was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Mark D. Chutkow and R. Michael Bullotta.
