Some Question If Manoogian Party Witness Credible

DEARBORN, Mich. - Rumors have been flying for years about the never proven Manoogian Mansion party. Now, a new witness has come forward with explosive accusations. However, the man's criminal past has many questioning his credibility.

Council President Pro-Tem Gary Brown was the deputy chief who was fired for investigating allegations of that big party at the Manoogian Mansion. Now, he's questioning these latest allegations.

"I think it is absolutely, inherently incredible that somebody out of a motorcycle club would say that the former mayor was trying to hire motorcycle people to be security. He had his own security detail. They were his friends, so I don't think that was even necessary," said Brown.

35-year-old Wilson Kay, Junior is the man claiming he was at that party at the Manoogian Mansion where exotic dancer Tamara Greene allegedly performed, was assaulted by Carlita Kilpatrick and then killed in a cover-up months later. That's the allegation from attorney Norman Yatooma, who is representing Tamara Greene's family.

Now, Kay has signed an affidavit saying he was with a motorcycle gang hired to do security at that party and that he witnessed everything, and that Attorney General Mike Cox, an assistant prosecutor back then, but a candidate for governor now, was there, too, and getting a lap dance.

"I believe that story is really surrounded around the fact that Judge Rosen has put a time line on discovery and depositions, and this is just a way to publicize the lawsuit, as well as the upcoming election," Brown said.

Cox vehemently denies the allegations and says they're purely political just days before the primary.

Kay did not show up for his deposition last week. He also has an extensive criminal history that includes arson, weapons, drugs and theft.

Kay was not at his home in Dearborn, but neighbors were surprised to learn about the party.

"Wow, that's interesting we have someone next door that was at the party," said one neighbor.
