August 28, 2007 (Senator) Ford Gets 5-1/2 Years

Judge Daniel Breen sentenced flamboyant, arrogant, and bribe-taking former Tennessee State Senator John Ford to 5-1/2 years in prison.

Ford--like several other Tennessee legislators and local politicians--was caught red-handed on tape taking bribes in the FBI Tennessee Waltz sting operation.

Ford initially denied the charges but is now very sorry and takes "full responsibility" for his acts.
