Alabama House Speaker Mike Hubbard indicted on 23 felony corruption charges by Lee County Grand Jury
quote:
Representative Mike Hubbard represents District 79, which includes portions of Auburn and Opelika. He was elected Speaker of the House on December 8, 2010. A 1983 graduate of the University of Georgia with a degree in radio and television, Hubbard came to Auburn two weeks after graduation where he worked for six years in the Auburn Athletic Department as Associate Sports Information Director. In 1990, he left Auburn University to head up Auburn’s radio and television sports network.

According to the indictment, Hubbard solicited favors from some of Alabama's rich and powerful. They include former Alabama Governor Bob Riley, Business Council of Alabama CEO Billy Canary, Hoar Construction CEO Rob Burton, Great Southern Wood CEO Jimmy Rane, former Sterne Agee CEO James Holbrook, lobbyist Minda Riley Campbell, Harbert Management Corp. vice president Will Brooke and political operative Dax Swatek.

Imagine that, an Alabama politician that is corrupt.

Anyone that lives in Alabama just looks at this list and says, "well, no shite."
Corruption in southern politics is a given. Just a matter of timing.

Whether he actually is debatable. They (his political opposition) have been trying to get him indicted for a decade. I really have no idea if Hubbard is corrupt or not, considering the sources that have been pushing for his indictment for years (other arguably corrupt entities and people).

Good. Get rid of some of the last ties to Lowder.
Even though I don't know if he can be prosecuted for this...seriously clueless.

The AEA is a joke right now and lacks the influence to make this happen. How do you explain Siegelman's arrest if you think this is the AEA's doing?

Lol, if you think any of the people on that list are going down you're crazy or just not paying attention.
Posted on 10/20/14 at 5:31 pm to Chazzy McRamzee
No one cares.

I'm simply saying the AEA has been on a warpath for Hubbard for years. Also, just because Siegelman went down doesn't mean the AEA wasn't still warring. Siegelman went far enough that his allies couldn't do anything to save him, and the same may be true for Hubbard. This "Mike is about to go down" story has happened every 6 months for 5 years. I don't know what has now pushed it over the top, although the timing is obvious.
