More Headaches for Langford

This isn't the first time he has been accused of this behavior, but in comparison to the destruction of the county in exchange for nice suits, this is almost quaint:

Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford and gambling are making news again this morning.

Langford has been named in a civil lawsuit claiming, in effect, that he was given favorable treatment when he allegedly won a $50,000jackpot on an electronic bingo machine at the Quincy’s777 Casino in Macon County on August 28,2009. This was just weeks after a federal court grant Langford indigent status in a separate federal bribery case. That ruling means the taxpayers are picking up Langford’s legal costs in that federal criminal case.


Poor La La, the hits just keep on coming.
