Documents remain under seal: Tamara Greene
Sworn testimony from Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox in the Tamara Greene murder investigation will remain under court seal for the time being.
Federal Judge Gerald Rosen ruled against the media’s request to unseal documents in the case, saying he wants to protect the ongoing investigation and the privacy of third parties.
Rosen had previously said he would not release the documents, but the Detroit Free Press recently renewed its effort to obtain Cox’s deposition.
Greene’s family is suing Detroit and former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, claiming the homicide investigation was intentionally stifled years ago.
Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy has previously said that she agrees with Rosen: the documents should remain sealed.
Tamara Greene was shot to death in a drive-by shooting back in 2003. She was an exotic dancer that was believed to be at a rumored – but never proven – party at the Manoogian Mansion when Kwame Kilpatrick was Mayor of Detroit.
