Campbell Prosecution

Today's D-bag is not former Atlanta mayor Bill Campbell, but the bumbling federal prosecutors who were unable to convict him of serious charges. Campbell was found guilty of three counts of tax evasion but was cleared corruption and racketeering charges.

Said one juror, " ....on the corruption, we kind of figured he was guilty, but they couldn't prove it. So we couldn't convict." Despite an overwhelming amount of evidence, the prosecution, led by Assistant U.S. Attorney Sally Yates, was unable to convince the jury to convict on federal RICO charges. This leads to the assumption that either the jury was stupid or the prosecution inept.

Other D-bags in the news this weekend include- State Rep. Chip Rogers (R-Woodstock) who shepherded SB 529 through the senate, and former genocidal maniac Slobadan Milosevic who grabbed headlines by dying in prison.
