The three have not been charged with wrongdoing in the case, but their names emerged along with others as the government's investigation into city corruption widens.
In addition to the Kilpatricks and Monica Conyers, the Free Press has identified five other people who were cited -- but not named -- in plea records Monday.
Those five have been identified by sources as onetime mayoral aides Michael Tardif and Derrick Miller; Detroit developer and Synagro consultant Rayford Jackson; Akunna Olumba, a business associate and former girlfriend of Bernard Kilpatrick; and former Conyers aide Sam Riddle.
