313files.org is a collaborative public archive documenting Detroit's political and economic elite. Detroiters deserve to know who profits from our city's struggles and which politicians trade public trust for personal gain. This wiki connects isolated incidents into clear patterns of poor governance, institutional failure, and corruption. Every entry is sourced from public records, verified reporting, and official documents.

We believe Detroit belongs to its people, not to those who sell false promises while pocketing the proceeds.
