Alabama Slammer
Just in case you were thinking of going down to the state of Alabama for a drinking binge, think again. You don't want to get arrested in a state where you see headlines like this one :
Jackson attorney still under ethics cloud takes oath early
GROVE HILL, Ala. (AP) -- A Jackson lawyer who was sanctioned by the Alabama State Bar has been sworn in early as a circuit judge despite lingering questions about whether he will actually be able to serve.
The state bar ordered that Stuart DuBose's law license be suspended because of his role in an estate in which he collected a $1.2 million fee for writing a client's will without ever meeting the dying man.
And don't even think about going to the cops.
