Was the Siegelman Jury on Drugs?
Roger Shuler of Legal Schnauzer
....I suspected Curran was blowing copious amounts of stale air, but I
couldn't be sure without doing some research. My trips to the archives
confirmed what I suspected about Curran's most recent writings. But
they also taught me quite a bit about the Siegelman case.
For example, let's consider these myths:
* The case was about bribery--Actually, the case was mostly about
honest-services mail fraud. Roughly two-thirds of the charges against
Siegelman and codefendant Richard Scrushy involved
honest-services mail fraud. And five of the seven counts on which
Siegelman was convicted related to honest-services mail fraud. He
was convicted of only one count of bribery.

St Valentine was the patron saint of political prisoners. That makes Don Siegelman the St. Valentine of Alabama!
