WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court has declined to disturb the conviction of former HealthSouth CEO Richard Scrushy on bribery and fraud charges.
The justices had no comment Monday on their order rejecting Scrushy's appeal of his 2006 conviction for arranging $500,000 in donations to former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman's lottery campaign. In return, Siegelman appointed Scrushy to a state hospital regulatory board.
Scrushy argued that he should get a new trial because of judicial and juror bias.
Scrushy served more than five years in prison before his release in 2012. Siegelman, convicted with Scrushy, remains in federal prison.

Ok, if you do the crime you need to serve the time, or something....
Money and politics, for shame, of course, as long as it flows into the right, or left, pockets. And yes, it is the mother's milk of politics and always has.
Not to be cynical, but to make a point, we have the best government money can buy.
What are we, the lowest bidder?
Government always takes the lowest bid, see ObamaCare web site...and I also believe they made campaign contributions as a part of their business...and yes, its a Maple leaf company...at that...
We should always tell the whole story Ex.
they donated more to the republicans than to the democrats.
thus proving that it was a dastardly republican plot behind the glitched website and the rollout...or as the republican secret directions put it..."fuck up that web sight doohickey so people can't do whatever you're supposed to do on that internet thingie"
They did get more than a little help from right-wing hackers, didn't they.
