Defenders: Tamara Greene Investigation

DETROIT — Local 4 Defenders have learned new information related into the killing of Tamara Greene.

Her killing has never been solved, but some Detroit police officers have come forward with who they said could be involved.

Greene was killed in a drive-by shooting days after rumors surfaced in Detroit that she danced at an alleged party former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick held at the Manoogian Mansion.

But the group of officers has now testified that that police brass shut down the investigation when Kilaptrick’s name surfaced as an associate to a self-confessed hit man, Vincent Smothers. It is alleged that Smothers may have been hired to kill Greene.
