Last fall former Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford was convicted of corruption charges involving the refinancing of sewer bonds while he was a Jefferson County commissioner. Montgomery investment banker Bill Blount and former lobbyist Al LaPierre also pleaded guilty as part of a scheme to bribe Langford to get the bond business for Blount's firm.

Looks like at least these bribers got some time.

As far as I can find, they're still going after Charles LeCroy and Douglas MacFaddin.

I suppose the matrix of bribers and bribees is a closely-held secret.

From Wikipedia: “The SEC has awarded the county $75 million in compensation relation to “unlawful payments” against JP Morgan and in addition the company will forfeit $647 million of future fees.”

No indication, though, that any individuals at JP Morgan have seen any judicial adverse consequences.
