Note to Prosecutors: Never try an Oxley-Sarbanes case in Alabama again.
Note to Donald Watkins: Great job. Now let?s see if you come to regret using the race card to defend a white guy. Too bad, next time around some real money is going to be made by suing your client. But maybe you can switch sides and claim he was a shameless white capitalist who made his millions on the back of poor minority people.
Note to Richard Scrushy: Outstanding performance, but here come the share holder lawsuits. Don?t think the really amazing idea of cloaking yourself in Afro-American Christianity will serve you twice. I mean, the only reason it worked is because it was so laughable that nobody thought it would fool anybody. Better come up with another public image transformation. Meanwhile, it showed incredible forethought to build a mansion on the lake that can be so easily converted into a La Quinta Inn.
Note to future business leaders: If you plan to bilk stockholders, take a lesson from all this. Before your house of cards collapses, take huge tax right-offs with generous donations around the community, then point to this as evidence of your innocence from any and all wrong-doing later. Hire yourself an attorney with heavy connections in the Black Community who can help you insinuate yourself into an icon of the civil rights movement and champion of the oppressed at the right moment. Claim you were a victim. Shamelessly take your position as a pious Christian thru a TV show, like Reverend Ike. But, don't let the details of who bought the worthless stock come into focus though, it may detract from your glamour that lots of those suckered investors were black, Hispanic, and white retirees and middle class folks.
