I don't care who was prosecuting him. Hamilton Co. is one of the most corrupt counties in the state. Charlie White got on the wrong side of the wrong people who control that county and the fix was in to railroad him out of office. If you cared about justice, Greg, you would devote your time to exposing the real corruption in Hamilton County--the corruption that's making a small group of fat cats very wealthy at the expense of the taxpayers.Gary R.

He was indicted by a Hamilton County Grand Jury, convicted by a Hamilton County trial jury, and the Hamilton County judge, a Republican, made some pretty damning comments on White's conduct at sentencing. Hamilton County, you might note, is the most Republican county in the state, and White was the Republican county chair.<br /><br />But I do agree that McIntosh's conduct was potentially more serious, and more flagrant, despite his feeble attempts to claim Madison County residence. Perhaps if a special prosecutor had been appointed there as well, a non-political investigation would have happened, as it did in White's case.Greg Purvishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14646251538152279506noreply@blogger.com
