Less than 24 hours after the White House commuted his 28-year federal prison sentence, Kilpatrick joined his family in Georgia, the Detroit Free Press reports, citing a relative and the Associated Press.
"He's definitely out. He's home and with his family," Daniel Ferguson, Kilpatrick's former brother-in-law and longtime family friend, told Tresa Baldas of the paper Wednesday night. A Bureau of Prisons spokesman confirmed to AP that the 50-year-old former Detroiter is free.
Kilpatrick, imprisoned ion 2013 for official corruption, returned to his family in Atlanta around dinner time, Ferguson said.
