I can’t believe how many people don’t know about this: JOHN FORD, SIX OTHERS NAILED IN FBI STING.
Well, there it is. Finally, they got him… but they got a whole lot more. On the news, the spread was two white men, two black men, and a black woman. That should qualify as diverse enough to bypass any racial accusations. Let’s just hope people recognize that a federal indictment is not a joke nor used for political utility. You might be able to wiggle out of a state indictment, but when the federal indictment comes down, they’ve worked out a water-tight case, and there’s not much getting out of it. Here’s an interesting part of the Ford indictment:
Senator Ford was also charged with three counts of “attempting to threaten and intimidate potential witnesses” — an offense that carries a maximum potential punishment of ten years and a maximum fine of $250,000.
“For what?” you might ask. Well, according to WBIR’s video on the subject, Ford apparently vowed to “kill anyone who set him up.” (Update: Link to details.) How about them apples?
