An Introduction to North Alabama Law and Politics

by Glynn Wilson

RAINSVILLE, Ala., June 17 - Dana Jill Simpson is faxing documents on a Sunday and waiting for me - to my surprise - with the front door unlocked in her modest red brick law office. It's at the halfway point between Ft. Payne and Scottsboro along Highway 35, which also happens to double as Main Street in the small town of Rainsville, Alabama, in this rural, mountainous Northeast corner of the state near the borders of Georgia and Tennessee.

Her house has already been burned down and one of her vehicles has been run off the road and totaled since she decided to seek justice and come out against the Bush and Riley political machines in the case of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman and deposed HealthSouth founder Richard Scrushy. While there may be no proof of a connection and there may be no connection at all, knowing the history of how hard the Bush's are willing to play in their pursuit of power, it has to make a person just a tad concerned - under the circumstances.

[A slight clarification here: Ms. Simpson had been communicating with a number of people about her research, including Scrushy and Siegelman lawyers, although she had not yet written the affidavit. Some blogs have reported that these events occured since the affidavit was signed in May. Not true. .........
