Latest Warren Mayor Tape Refers To 'Fags' And 'Rape' By Media
As Warren Mayor Jim Fouts prepares to run again in 2019, a new recording has surfaced that appears to disclose Fouts referring to homosexuals as fags and complaining that media efforts to reveal his true age were like being raped.
The voice on the recording obtained by Deadline Detroit matches the 76-year-old mayors distinctive voice, as did past audio tapes that surfaced which also revealed offensive Fouts slurs and rants. According to a former city employee, the newly released recording was made secretly in the mayors office.
On the recording, a snippet of a longer conversation, the mayor of Michigans third-largest city says:

At that point, the recorded segment abruptly ends. (Listen to actual recording below).
