Can’t wait to read this book. Keep us informed when and where it becomes available. You are going to send a copy to the Huffington Post aren’t you?

Looking forward to it.

As any reader of YallPolitics would expect, all of the political intrigue and campaign finance dots will be connected.

Hmmmmm, wonder what all you could be talking about.......

Can’t wait to read the book.

Wow.  Reply to the inbox has been overwhelming so far.  If you want a copy, send an address and how many copies you want.  The list is growing.

Congrats.  If your book is anything like your posts, it will be a page turner.  A new website just launched about a book that is being written on this same subject.

You need a book debut party or something.  I will choose the wine.

Porkchop, What a great idea. A Christmas Party-Book Signing-Wine Tasting. Let’s do it. One on the Coast, Jackson, Greenwood, Meridian, Columbus, Tupelo and Southhaven. It would give all of us a chance to meet each other and help Alan with his new book.

Sorry folks.  We had a website blowout earlier.  I forgot to feed the hamster that powers this site.  All back to normal.

Carry on.

Alan, some of us are really looking for your book to hit the sells counter. We know that there’s a lot more to what occurred than presently known. It would appear that for whatever reason [political corruption at the highest levels of our courts] not all that is known or proven is revealed due fearful consequences.

And although there’s a claim were doing better, we’ll be buying books on whats really going on just to survive the form of law created by folks written of in your book.  Its a look at things from a greater knowledge and something that we may need more than we know.

Just another example of a political enemy manipulating the Justice Department for personal financial gain.  I imagine this post won’t be up for long but, it’s given that Scruggs is a criminal.  It’s now also a given that Tom Dawson was not working for the public good, but a payday.

OxBoodAxe, you nailed it. That’s why Bill Clinton was president, so he could cash in on a book later. And John Wooden coached 10 NCAA basketball championship teams not for love of the game, but because he intended all along to write a book about his life. And Operation Pretense, yep - that investigator wrote a book.  All those supervisors taken down for a book. Disgraceful. Think about all those people out there doing their jobs, only to fool us all with plans to write a book later. You’re right, I’m sure when the FBI and DoJ heard from Judge Lackey about the attempted bribery, the first thing that popped into Dawson’s head was “Cha-ching. I’m going to write me a book.”

"Cha-ching. I’m going to write me a book.”

That was my laugh of the day.  Nice.  I’m still laughing. 

OxBlood, please respond to this.  Don’t let Jose keep you from spreading your thoughts.

I would rather here from someone who actually knows the story and what took place..... who better than the prosecutor?  It is a story we lived through reading about it hear and other blogs due to the lack of coverage in our great news papers.  OxBlood, you seem to have a certain slant on this issue… you wouldn’t be a plaintiff’s attorney would you?

@ msbroker....I am not a plaintiffs attorney though I know a few.  But, I did sit through the Preliminary Hearings in Oxford.  I saw Biggers declare in Open Court that he felt Scruggs had done this before and could help his situation by talking...ruining his credibility and ability to be impartial in the civil proceeding.  I read the transcripts that clearly pointed out Langston and Balducci were part of a criminal conspiracy and used Delaughter and Scruggs to make money only to feed them to the wolves (literally) when Balducci finally came across an honest Judge.  My interest is the truth.  Not in reading imbellishments and half truths about millionaires fighting billionaires (though RFS isn’t).

I’m sure Charlie Merkel and Bob Wilson will write the forward in the book claiming that SMBD bribed Attys General and Judges to pull off the Master Tobacco Settlement in the late 1990’s.
Speaking of...does anyone know the statutory minimum that a firm can collect in a Federal Medicaid/Medicare Lawsuit?  10% of the judgement/settlement.  Any guess what RFS and Co. agreed to collect as their fee in 1998?....less than 1%.

I’m sorry...10% is the statutory MAXIMUM a firm can collect in a Federal Medicaid/Medicare Lawsuit...or at least it was when the settlement was approved.

What? Bill Clinton didn’t talk about impeachment in his book? I wonder why? And basketball coaches don’t lock people up? Man, OxBloodAxe, you are enlightening me today. Thanks.

I doubt that you or anyone else has more knowledge of this case than I do

But you apparently don’t have much knowledge of the book publishing industry if you think Dawson is going to get rich off this. Its obvious that you’re very upset about a man publishing a book, which is still legal in the country, unlike bribing a judge.

I’m sure Dawson is doing it for the greater good.  Nice try.

Don’t think I didn’t notice you took a partial quote from me on the above post.  Again...nice try.  Dawson is nothing more than an Investigative Journalist.

I should add that Clinton didn’t leave office early to write his book like Dawson...and the former Gov. of Alaska...birds of a feather.  Lets use our public office to get rich.

Alan,
If it is appropriate, you may want to post my website, http://www.nancyswan.com

It is another side to the Paul Minor, Scruggs story, from the victim’s point of view.

I post updated news and resources on judicial reform and whisteblower protection that may interest your readers as well.
Thanks,
Nancy Swan

OxBlood, you’ve certainly been busy.  I will keep your post up.  Since you seem so intent on slinging barbs, the least I can do is reveal your email - wbozejr@aol.com. 

I imagine this post won’t be up for long but, it’s given that Scruggs is a criminal.  It’s now also a given that Tom Dawson was not working for the public good, but a payday.

You seem awfully shrill so I figured while you were dealing trash, we’d let everyone know who you were - if indeed that’s your real email.

If anyone in the YP nation knows who this knucklehead is, let me know.

Have a nice day.

William Steven Bozeman Jr.

Hmmm, according to my research, our friend OxBloodAxe, is the son of Scruggs’s former law partner William Steven Bozeman. 

A big ahhhhh haaaa; now we know.  These thin skin folks who still believe Scruggs was set up; Paul Minor was the victim of political prosecution , yadah, yadah, yadah.
Ever notice the trial lawyers are all so liberal about everybody being so innocent; and about how their clients are being shafted and how harsh the Conservatives are about justice?  But when it hits close to home and the verdict is in they can’t man-up and accept the truth.  Go find your own kind to preach to, OxBloodAxe.  Even Zach Scruggs was ever so angry at the DOJ, BOP, etc. but everybody else could see he should have been angry at his sorry father for putting him and others in an unlawful, un-defendable position.  But what the heck...this will just sell more books in the end.

It appears Mr. Bozeman moved over to NMC’s site.
