His uncle, former state senator John Ford, was recently sentenced to 66 months in prison, after he was found guilty of accepting bribes.
His father still faces charges of bribery and extortion and is due in court on Sept. 21.

What a blight on the body politic that family is. And I have a problem with 28-year-olds who think they ought to be running the world.
