Nearly 21 years after [Tamara] Greene was killed in a drive-by shooting, her daughter, Ashly Jackson, revived the unsolved mystery in a viral TikTok video posted Thursday.

“Things got messy, and the mayor of Detroit’s wife actually assaulted my mother,” Jackson says. “Instead of paying my mother hush money, the mayor decided to pay off cops in the city to murder my mother.”

Greene’s family filed a lawsuit against Kilpatrick and the city, but it was dismissed in federal court in 2011 for a lack of evidence.

    I got very confused by that title for a sec, I thought it said that the person who got killed made the claim.

      Tamara Greene’s daughter claims ex-mayor Kwame Kilpatrick had her killed

      Sorry about that. Headline writing is an art and in trying to shorten the article’s original title I may have made it confusing. Original title restored. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
