Alabama Gambling Corruption Case May Not Be Over
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- The acquittal of all defendants in Alabama's gambling corruption trial may not be the end of the case.
A defense attorney for casino owner Milton McGregor says he's considering legal action against people who may have wrongfully caused the case or wrongfully participated. Attorney Joe Espy declined to name who might be included.
Federal prosecutors have asked a judge to delay the sentencing of the four people who pleaded guilty in the case. They want them delayed from April to at least August because they say "the need for the defendants' cooperation will continue for the foreseeable future." Prosecutors didn't say why the continued cooperation is needed.
The four who pleaded guilty are former Rep. Terry Spicer, casino developer Ronnie Gilley, and his lobbyists, Jarrod Massey and Jennifer Pouncy.
