(AP) -- DETROIT - A deputy to ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has been sentenced to 14 months in federal prison in a kickback scheme.
Kandia Milton was sentenced Monday in U.S. District Court in Detroit.
The 39-year-old rose to deputy mayor under Kilpatrick. He was accused of helping broker the sale of city-owned Camp Brighton to the Chaldean Catholic Church. Authorities say Milton received $20,000.
He pleaded guilty in December and agreed to help federal officials with their probe of past corruption in City Hall.
His brother DeDan earlier was sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison for getting kickbacks from city property sales. DeDan Milton admitted getting $16,000 in the 2007 sale of the camp and 2006 sale of a police station. He was an executive assistant to Kilpatrick.
