New Orleans Mayor-Elect Picks Ex-Detroit CFO

White held the same post in Detroit when Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was found guilty on federal corruption charges and sentenced to 28 years in prison.

However, he was never implicated in the wrongdoing, Cantrell saying he helped "right the ship" at a challenging time for city government in the Motor City.
