Bama Democrats wrote the book on grift. Langford is the undisputed king.
This putz has sold millions in junk bonds to build TWO worthless amusement parks, paired up with jailbird Richard Scrushy to bribe high level state officials into giving Healthsouth lucrative exclusive contracts, and his latest gambit-rigging video bingo machines at the dog track to pay HIM huge cash wins.
No s#|7. This cretin actually walked into the dog track with an entourage, was ‘escorted’ to multiple machines, each of which ‘luckily’ paid him thousands. Then he waltzed right out with entourage and his ‘winnings’ in tow.

He will start screaming racism any minute is my guess. It would not surprise me to see a jury acquit him, either....based solely on those grounds.
And the people of Jefferson county (ie: B’ham) would happily re-elect him tomorrow.
Any wonder why I left?
Venue has been changed to Tuscaloosa, so hopefully he will get a fair verdict.
A fair verdict would be LaLa going to the federal pen for a long long time.
Well yeah, LOL! Atlanta is not free from graft, either!
I would've left Birmingham, too. I won't live in Montgomery, either. Elmore County, Tallapoosa County, now that's a lot better.
