Is Sam 3 Joe's brother?

So is this son included in any of this thievery of taxpayer dollars in all this fiasco? Wonder how much crcils wife knew. Must have known about it as all property in Rankin county has been put in trust in her name.

Let's not practice guilt by association. There's no evidence that Josh McCrory has done anything wrong. As an attorney, he would have to be expected to represent clients.

Of course an attorney is expected to represent clients; but, don't you find it at least a bit peculiar that the son of the current accomplice had so much DOC related work land in his lap?

I thought we were supposed to stop asking questions about this now that our governor has assembled a task force. Let them tell us what to think about it.

Ya'll, the trust was set up after the payment from a lawsuit where Josh's sister/Cecil's daughter was killed in a car wreck in 2000. JJ posted a story about it. That is where a lot of the money came from.

Leave it to the attorneys to rush forward and caution others not to cast aspersions on ..... attorneys. I'm convinved there are classes in law school where young attorneys-to-be are taught that their shit doesn't stink.

Lawyers are guilty until proven not.117

@8:29 You are correct. It comes right after the class for young medicals students where they tell them, "you now know all there is about medicine"

And this proves what? That his son handled a handful of cases more than six years ago?

Regardless of the mutterings, above, it is wholly bizarre that the son of the criminal accomplice got handed tons of work related to the Department of Corrections and it's employees. You reckon the daddy didn't tell Epps it was an expectation?

Oh, but it was awhile ago, you might say. And it was simply coincidental. Who the fuck do you think you're kidding, you dumbass?

Its more evidence of the connections between McCrory (father) and Epps. Every little fact unearthed in this case has wound up meaning something.

So is anyone Republican or Democrat going to ask where the Auditor was doing all this? How about someone conducting a Legislative hearing on the matter?

Am I correct? This investigation started in 2010, 4 years ago. I have worked for a financial institution before. How hard is it (not very)to trace illegal cash and/or transfers? The reason others are not implicated is probably because "we have our target, and do not necessarily need others". I am glad these people are being accused, but why have I spent my taxpayer money for 4 years on a slam dunk accusation that is irrefutable?

>>but why have I spent my taxpayer money for 4 years on a slam dunk accusation that is irrefutable?<<

Two years milking that teat ain't long enuf? Finding crooks who are also suitable scapegoats is a science?

Three years and that cakes about baked, but it's purt near election time and we shore cain't embarrass the incumbents? You know, the ones that fake about being hard on crime when about all they really want to do is make a big show about sending the smalls to the pen?

Four years and the votes are in- the party of clean guvermint won. Lets make a show and throw in some shock and surprise that moneys may have been... well... ALLEGEDLY Mississippi'd? Lets also go with the "Deputy Pheel Good" task force to check out what has been missed? In case there is some way to prevent this from happening again? TWO FUCKING S CLASS MERCEDES AND A SWEET VACAY CONDO?!!?

Wash, rinse, repeat as needed. Meantime let's hire some more consultants to tell us how to save by contracting out, and also lets have some more fundraisers cause hard times are not for the elected class.

Any comment yet from the National Departments of Correction Board which Epps was recently elected to chair? Seems this might be a minor embarrassment to them.

Anybody thought to check to see how many similar contracts McCrory had across state lines. I got a bet says Epps put a good word in for his bud and this slop trough extended outside the boundaries of this state.

For those 'critics' that think this investigation lasted too long - what do you know about the details of the investigation? How would you go about getting everything that is needed for convictions any quicker? Oh - that's right - its all right in front of you. Could have done it in a week or two, maybe a month. Ever thought there might be more to this deal than what you've already read about? If there possibly was, wouldn't you want the auditor/feds looking for it? Don't know about you, but I certainly would. And my bet is that there is more to come.
