After being found not guilty in his earlier trial on accounting fraud charges, Richard Scrushy was indicted again yesterday by federal prosecutors in Alabama on charges of bribery and mail fraud. These charges allege that the former CEO of HealthSouth made contributions of $500k to the Alabama Educational Lottery Foundation in 1999 and 2000 in order to gain a spot on a state board that reviewed proposals for new hospitals in Alabama.
These charges may turn out to be important and lead to justice, but my first reaction is that surely there's some other crime happening in Alabama that you folks could look into for awhile.
