Steady work for the court reporters

Federal corruption trials have been in the news a lot lately in Alabama. In Montgomery, jurors in former Gov. Don Siegelman's case should begin deliberations this week after hearing a closing argument today from one of his co-defendants, HealthSouth founder Richard Scrushy, and a prosecution rebuttal. Meanwhile, up the interstate in Birmingham, the state's largest county saw a former commissioner convicted on multiple counts Wednesday, marking the second such occurrence in the last three months.
