From the film now being completed:
"Atticus and the Architect: The Political Assassination of Don Siegelman"

About the film:
"We will reveal the dark underbelly of Republican politics.
It will explain how Karl Rove used his senior executive position in the Bush White House to
'get rid of Siegelman' because Republicans simply couldn't beat him at the polls.
Rove began by arranging for loyal Republican operatives, and Siegelman's political adversaries, to be appointed as federal prosecutors.
The federal prosecutor that indicted Gov. Siegelman, Laura Canary, was married to the campaign manager of his opponent, Bill Canary.
Those prosecutors quickly indicted Siegelman with fake, made-up charges alleging actions that, according to hundreds of legal experts - both Republican and Democrat - have never been crimes in the history of American jurisprudence.
Then, to make those false charges stick, a Republican 'hanging judge' with numerous personal, political, and financial conflicts was suspiciously selected to preside over the trial."
