Default "King of Torts" Cops a Plea

Remember the guy who won the suits against the asbestos and tobacco companies. Seems like he tried to bribe a judge and is going off to gaol. Makesone wonder how many judges he was successful in bribing.

"JACKSON, Miss. - Richard.... Scruggs, the legendary trial lawyer who made Big Business tremble every time he set foot in court, pleaded guilty Friday to conspiring to bribe a judge "” a crime that could send him to prison and spell the end of his storied legal career."

It really makes you wonder how many other judges accepted his bribes.[:@]

He needs to spend some time in prison. We lawyers don't have a positive reputation in the community anyway, and people like him certainly don't help our image.[:@]
