- Beatty has been working quietly as a program director of THAW, which is a non-profit that helps Detroiters get assistance to pay utility bills. (She has an undergrad degree in social work and a masters degree) She sometimes gets recognized, but more often can move about among friends and family quietly, in the city she loves. But questions about her job and her restitution to the city of Detroit has put her back in the spotlight. Which is why she wanted to tell her story.
Clearly you can see her sincere remorse for past decisions and the humility she dislplayed is refreshing, hoping only the best for her and her family.
Kwame and Christine both have sincere remorse and both should be given Grace. 🙏
Hi Christine! I am sorry to hear about your mother. I am glad to see you doing well. Thank you for always taking care of us kids in the neighborhood❤❤❤❤
I felt that silence when she asked her about joy... we gotta learn how to forgive ourselves. And others! I wish her the best!!
(An wit da powa anda galory ofa gawd, HAAAA!)
People are not the worst decision they ever made.
Well said ✊🏽
Exactly that should apply to Kwame and Christine there's no reason for us to judge either of them for their past decisions.🙏
Christine Beatty I wish you the best. You're a die hard Westside Detroiter. Welcome back home!...its no place like home..
I wish Christine Beatty all the best. My condolences on the lost of her mother.
You are doing awesome Christine. I am also working in nonprofit human services (25+ years). There’s a lot of work and need out here. Keep going sis.
Thank God for his Grace Ms Christine Beatty had been restored and given the Grace of God that goes with having a second chance to restore the purpose God had for her Thank You 🙏🏿 for telling your story in Jesus Name
This was a wonderful interview. Thanks to Christine for being so honest and taking responsibility for her past actions as well as to the interviewer for showing her such compassion but also did her job by asking questions that needed to be asked.
Ten foot softballs, every one of em'.
Taking responsibility? What else can she do after getting caught?
Great interview. Christine was so authentic and sincere about owning her past. I am happy for her new opportunity. My heart goes out to her family, her mom was a such a sweet person.
STELLAR RESPONSE AND RECLAMATION, JUST A BLESSED INTERVIEW.
So glad she's doing well. I pray for continued peace, in the loss of her Mom 🌹 May she have growth and development, success and prosperity. Shame, we have so many people, who love to constantly scrutinize others and constantly bring up their past.
Christine I know what you are going through I was a caregiver for mom until she left this world she passed in 2019 and I felt lost but with time and the grace of God I'm finding my way I pray you can have peace and joy again 🙏🏽
I’m sorry for the loss of her mom. She absolutely deserves the opportunity to move on and continue her journey. She (nor anyone else) should be defined by one inning of their lives.
Tamara green can’t come back so she shouldn’t!
@@nero3134I think that should be more on Kwame and his ex-wife than on Christine.
@@nicolestewart2274 Christine is a suspect too. Her jealousy could have been the reason Tamara Green is gone also. All Kwame’s lovers are suspects in my opinion.
@@nero3134 After a lot of research over the years, I honestly don't believe Chrstine Beatty had anything to do with Tamara Greene's murder. Despite her position and proximity to Kwame, she was just one among several women he was screwing on the side. I do believe Kwame's wife beat her up at 'the party', and I believe that Kwame had her knocked off...just my opinion.
@@nicolestewart2274 I can see your point, but we will never know. I believed that too. If it was my family member I would suspect everyone around Kwame.
Let the one without sin, cast the 1st stone.... God be with you Christine.
That was A very beautiful interview & I’m happy that she was able to share with/ us w/ such openness! I too lost my mother in a similar way & I know that grief & pain! Keep on moving forward & I wish you the best! ❤️
I respect this lady acknowledging her mistakes, and pulling her self back up, and moving forward into positivity.
She is trust worthy to me.
I believe in her. Cheers to you Christine Beatty, I appreciate you!!
The problem with people in power is that they forget that power os temporary
I met her when she’d come and walk her Mom’s dog. Such a nice person.
Great interview! Sending comforting thoughts and prayers to Christine on the loss of her mother. Welcome home.🙏🏽🙏🏽
She has done what she did, karma is real and it’s Gods grace that she is still stranding. You can tell she has a lot of pain due to she laughed a lot. That was not for happiness that’s for covering up her pain. She just lost her Mom. Im glad her mom lived long enough to see her daughter bounce back in life, and I’m sure that didn’t go without lots of praying from her Mom, family and friends. Christine knows where her help came from. She had her fun back then and God humbled her. Being in Detroit is home for her, but I’m sure it was hard for her to come back.. but she is here, let’s embrace her, what if that was us? She’s human 1st, remember, we all fall short. Everything happens for a reason, and we all make bad decisions at times.. it’s not how you fall it’s how you get back up. I wish her luck on her book coming out call “Journey back”.
Christine keep your head up,
you go girl! God got you!
Proud of you!!!
The journey from Atlanta after the monies all gone ? Yeah, that's gotta be tough ,be nice if these two grifter gangsters could put some money on a journey to the city of Detroit
She seems to be a sweet lady..but she got seduced by power and emotions and lust. It can happen to anyone in her position at that ty
I'm not going to harshly judge her
I wish her well
She's paid her dues. Bless up Christine. Condolences.
It Can happen to the best of us. even Kwame got seduced by power greed and lust. I'm so thankful for God's mercy and Grace for Kwame and Christine.
I wish Christine nothing but the best 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 God let her live a full life on her 2nd chance 🙏🏽
I've been saying the same thing for her and Kwame for years now. 🙏
My sister pass from lung cancer and i am still grieving to it is not easy
My brother passed in November 2022. It wasn’t from cancer but I pray your strength because the loss of a sibling is indescribable. The best advice I’ve received thus far has been, “It’s never gets easier but it gets more manageable.” Praying for you and your family. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing your story and testimony! God has His hand on you, and I am praying you and your family continue to triumph. I lost my mom several years ago, and my dad more recently... both from complications of Alzheimer's. I made some bad life choices/decisions as well. But at the end, God allowed me, and my siblings to be there to help care for, and hold their hands, and pray when God called them home. Will always and g to over be, Daddy's Little Girl! Thank you
I was prepared to watch this and walk away continuing my dislike for Christine. But instead, I walk away saying, "She deserves her second chances just as we all do". I wish her continued success in putting her past behind her, and moving forward. Sounds cliche as hell, but it is what it is. I truly wish her well.
You should let her know she still owes the city of Detroit thousands of dollars
I bet you didn't have that same energy with kwame you strong independent feminist
@@cecilsmith5227 Kwame be all up in her waffles
KWAME is a freaking LOSER BUM shouldn't even affiliate her name with his anymore that crap is DEAD u on some bs fr.....Great interview and much 💕 to Mrs Beatty
I am no advocate for Christine Beatty, as I was an Assistant United States Attorney that looked at many ways of charging her before relinquishing control over her criminal case to Kym's office. That said, no one, and I mean no one, should disparage or attack the work that THAW does, has done or will do because it provided Ms. Beatty an opportunity to assist it while assisting in her own recovery. Leave the 501(c) 3 alone and leave Ms. Beatty alone. Live your own lives. The End!
Exactly leave Kwame Kilpatrick and Christine Beatty alone. The end🙏
All the benevolent things you can do out your life and one false hood can spoil a thousand truths..S/o to Christine Beatty for coming back to Detroit..God bless the Beatty family
Heard about her through the viral ticktock story shared by the daughter of a former stripper who had an affair with Kwame and later was murdered. The interviewer was phenomenal and poised. Condolences for both their losses.
Kwame Kilpatrick never had an affair with the stripper. this is why you can't believe everything on social media LOL. It's funny how people leave out the fact that she was sitting in a car with a drug dealer who was the target of that shooting.
@@tanishawilliams575girl please err body know the truth 💯
This is the evidence of Maturity 🙏🏾😔
And the criminal mind.
I love Christine seen her in person 2yrs ago at Target in Dearborn even more BEAUTIFUL in person... WELCOME BACK HOME❤
Tamara Green
Tamara Green, certainly deserves justice, but WHY are so many connecting her death with anyone, without really knowing THE FACTS?? Y'all need to quit this stuff! The real culprit could be getting away, while you point fingers at the wrong person. Have proof, before you throw things out there
I’m so sorry for your loss Christine ! Love, Prayers and blessings to you and your girls! 🩵
Very inspiring testimony. Everyone deserves a second chance ❤
Now that's what true redemption looks like. Way to go Christine. Forget the haters. You good.
Wishing the best for her and her family.
Beautiful interview Ms. Beatty. May Gods grace and forgiveness cover you and your family henceforth.
Great interview on both Christine’s and the journalist part.
Condolences to Ms Beatty and her family . Congratulations on her Career opportunity at THAW.
Excellent interview! Thank you Christine for telling your story of rebirth and reinvention.
Such a powerful interview. I pray for God’s Grace and Mercy to continue in her life. May GOD, her strength is admirable! Thank GOD my poor decisions in life haven’t been placed on a world stage!! OMG!
All the way from NYC, proud of you fellow Bison. Standing on faith, taking full accountability and moving forward. 💙💙I’m sure your beloved mom is super proud too!
Let he/she who is without sin cast the first stone.......(I'll wait). I have my hands in my pockets cause honey let me be the first to admit...if I were a public figure I'd be sitting in that chair right next to you. Keep looking forward Christine don't look back, you are not going that way. Wishing you all the BEST in your future. ( P.S. I like those accent chairs)
Christine glad you are back in detroit keep it moving and live your life
Christine, so sorry for the loss of your mom. Thats a hard pill to swallow. No love or loss like that of a good mother. I remember this story from fifteen years ago. I watched this interview and it was so genuine and very transparent in her answers to questions. I heard a matured and changed woman who knows God is her help and redeemer. Glad someone gave her an opportunity to make a new start to rebuild her life. I feel that she no longer needs to answer questions from the past (unless she wants to). Seems like she spoke to everything and is moving forward, rebuilding her life...NOW.
I'm shattered for you and your Daughter's for the loss of your Beloved Mother....
It's a hard and difficult pill to swallow and something that I hope you can overcome.
It's hard...
Godspeed to you and your Daughter's!
Welcome home Christine 💕👍🏽
We all live we learn and we move forward on a new path everyday in a positive way thanking God for his goodness and mercy.
Stellar and Graceful
Sending prayers and condolences to you and your girls. Welcome home.
Did you have the same energy for kwame you too faced black strong independent feminist
@@cecilsmith5227 Beg pardon?
@@cecilsmith5227 He without sin cast the first stone ..we all have done shameful things in this world if we repent and are remorseful Jesus will give us his grace and save us😢
@@luesgrandbabyright 😮
I like her❤. I wish her well❤❤
Blessings to her.
Beautiful interview ❤🎉❤
I'm really glad to know that she's doing alright 👍. Ill keep her in my prayers 🙏. Love and hugs 🫂 to you.
Great interview. Many blessings to Christine.
I don’t think she is playing the victim. I appreciate that she spoke and she's right everyone deserves another chance. She should be paying her restitution I hope she does on her own work out a payment plan.
Redemption is not only real, it also can be wonderful.....
I speak Redemption for Kwame and Christine.🙏
Sending my deepest condolences to you🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾I truly understands I lost my husband and I’m not the same and never ever will be.God Bless You and your family❤️🙏🏾🌹
I know how she feels, because I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer on Christmas Eve 2019. I hope and pray that she has surrendered her heart and life to Jesus. Yes we can all make mistakes and do some terrible things and there are consequences for your actions, but you live and you learn, you forgive and you are forgiven, and you move on with your life 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Welcome home and condolences to you and your family. May GOD continue to keep you and bless you! ❤
My condolences and prayers goes out to you and your family ms. beatty. Very inspiring interview. I always loved Christine beautiful person inside and out. Glad she getting that second chance that she truly deserves. . May God continue to comfort and bless you and your in all areas of your life.
She is what she is by the grace of God and that grace to her was not without effect, no she worked harder than all of them, no not her, but the grace of God that was with her, May the Grace Of God be upon her 🙏
Funny how they treat her different because she's a woman and she did the same crime but women are sympathetic to her and not 2 kwame in the news is treating her like she's a hero
Kwame is the real hero here ,best grifter in the city,nice to have these outstanding citizens back
She's a inspiration. ❤❤❤ everything will be ok.
Losing Mom is heartbreak hotel Mom and Dad were Giants in my life and I Thank God for my sorrow because it just mean that they meant so much to me eventually Ms Beattty will feel the same but it will take years and a lot of tears grief is a process and not an event.
Prayers to you & your family! You have definitely changed for the better! Humble Humble Humble!
This is my first time ever hearing anything about you! But I could not stop watching this video!! It's so inspiring how you made such an amazing comeback!! God bless you and your family!!!
Her spirit seems to be genuine. I'm rooting for her and her daughters. This video was recommended. I am not familiar with her story.
This is the same woman who had a straight face while lying about the affair and corruption and the disrespectful treatment of law enforcement. If she was remorseful she would tell the truth about Tamara green!
@@nero3134Deepest condolences to her family on her mother’s passing, but your comment was more truthful than these other comments. She messed up Detroit along with Kilpatrick.
@@Texastee73 yes, and she still hasn’t finished paying her debt to Detroit. If you remember Kwame and Ferguson extorted over 50 million dollars. That money is somewhere and she benefited from that money too. Where’s the money?
@@Texastee73 thank you, what they did was vile and despicable. People forget the bankruptcy and emergency manager assigned to Detroit, and also we loss our greatest asset which was control of the water and we had to lease Belle Isle to the state. Their greed and corruption cost the citizens so much. Who do you think paid for the damage they caused? Us taxpayers so screw her and I hope she never finds happiness.
@@nero3134
You all, are so pathetic!! What does she have to do with what happened with Tamera Green? I hope Tamera Green gets justice, and I feel for her children, but people need to quit putting the blame on who they THINK did it. Unfortunately, it's been reported, Tamera Green dated a notorious drug dealer and was sadly caught up in a drive by shooting, while in the car with him. She was also a stripper, which is a very dangerous lifestyle. Whoever is guilty, needs to rot in prison, but STOP with the finger pointing, unless you have evidence!!
Welcome home, Christine. You've my deepest condolences.
Great interview ❤
So sorry for your loss 🙏🏽
Wonderful, courageous interview, Wishing you both multiple blessings this Christmas
Yeah ok, let her go screw your husband and wreck your home.
She hasn’t bothered to pay restitution payments since 2013 because she has no regard or respect for others.
Great interview.
I hope that after this interview, Mrs Christine does not have to talk about this ordeal anymore. Especially about the money to pay back the city. I bet she is good for other accomplishments in her life. It could be therapy, I feel that. She is a beautiful soul.
God bless Christine Beatty and her mother
God is a forgiving God let those people live a life it’s the media that keeps stuff going it’s been years up on you let them live and move on we don’t care Amen
Speak for yourself tyvm,the tax payers of the city of Ddtroit care and we want our money back from these two thieves
I believe in 2nd chances and forgiveness.
Great interview
My condolences.
Thank You, 63-year-old male. The power within you.
“ GOD BLESS YOU “
I understand the Mom thing. Yo are fabulous❤❤
Great interview…Wish the very best for Ms. Beatty !
And the best to the city of Detroit ,hopefully it will get its money back these two gangster grifters stole
Bless you! Mrs.Beatty
BLESSINGS ❤❤❤
I now see the humbleness now
Condolences to you and your family on the loss of your mom. I have been a caretaker/overseer of my mom for years now and it's overwhelming at times but I wouldn't have it any other way. She too, is my Shero. I can relate to so much of your story. Congratulations on your new position! Thank God for second chances!!!
Great interview. So sorry for Christine’s loss of her Mother. She is indeed a strong woman and I wish her happiness and the best in life.
Amen
Growing up 4 blocks ftom Howard University makes me root for her that much more my job brings me to Detroit 5 to 6 tomes a year been coming to your town for 30 years always enjoy your city and needless to say I've seen the comeback always enjoyed the people your city is what the youngsters say is Lit
Enjoyed this interview
I tried but i couldn't unsee it! Kept expecting her to roll her eyes in disgust like she did on the stand!🤐
I like her😏We all mess up and/or have dealt with a piece of crap we should've walked in the opposite direction from🤨😑.....she owned hers and deserve a chance to move on peacefully. HIM on the other hand🤨should be arrested again for tryna cover up the murder of that dancer he was involved with (AND HIS WIFE BEAT w/A TABLE LEG SO BAD SHE HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL🤨)..... that was gunned down months later because she said she was gonna tell all she knew😑
Loved them both.
The same "scarlet letter" was applied to Monica Lewinsky. It's harder for women to recoup from scandals. I think she's trying to "pay back" for her mistakes. Best wishes,
America is built on second chances!
Condolence to Christine Beatty in the loss of her mother🌹🕊✝
Well done! So happy for your next chapter Christine.
So cool we’re still talking about this ; however you REPORTERS have nothing to report about Flint water and everybody getting their cases thrown out.😢
The water still contaminated in flint ?
Great Interview….
Funny how she sayin once her probation is over,her restitution is over too,lol wrong ,you still owe the city of Detroit that money
