re: Former US Attorney on AU wiretap claims (Sticky)

The 11 people arrested Monday as part of a state government corruption investigation all have retained attorneys to defend them against the charges, which range from conspiracy to federal bribery to wire fraud. The number of charges against each defendant varies.

Here's the main, "innocent" guy he defended.

Former U.S. Attorney Doug Jones and criminal defense attorney Jim Parkman say they are both stunned at how quickly the jury in the Larry Langford federal corruption trial came to their decision. In an interview on Good Day Alabama, both men addressed their thoughts about the trial.

"There were problems in the defense, but I was surprised that the jurors didn't hold out over some of the issues," says Jim Parkman.

Doug Jones added that "It was stunning that it happened so quick. The fact that there was so much evidence... the jury was sending a message to politicians everywhere."
