: TalkLeftAlabama Bribery Busts
By Jeralyn
The feds busted a bunch of legislators, lobbyists and powerful businessmen in Alabama today:
The indictment alleges a sprawling conspiracy to buy votes in the legislature that would benefit the owners of casinos. Four state senators are charged with agreeing to accept — or in some cases, demanding — bribes in the form of campaign contributions or campaign appearances by country music stars. Two casino operators, Ronald Gilley and Milton McGregor, are charged with overseeing the conspiracy, and three lobbyists with carrying it out. An employee of Mr. Gilley’s and an employee of the state legislature were also charged.
Electronic bingo machines were the issue. Some legislators reportedly wore wires to rat out their associates.
