Exclusive Breaking News---
The Feds Will Expedite the Initiation of Public Corruption Charges Against Bentley, Mason
By Donald V. Watkins

Our Facebook news team has learned tonight that federal prosecutors in Washington have decided to expedite the initiation of public corruption charges against Governor Robert Bentley and his mistress/political consultant, Rebekah Mason.
Bentley is aware of this Justice Department decision. This is why Bentley will not discuss any aspect of his "sex for power" and public corruption scandal and why he publicly scolds reporters who attempt to question him about the scandal.
The focus of the federal probe is on the misconduct of Bentley and Mason, and it is intense. Mason’s involvement in the corruption scheme was more extensive than what has been publicly reported.
As we reported on April 4, 2016, the governor’s criminal case is being supervised by the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section, which oversees the federal effort to combat corruption through the prosecution of elected and appointed public officials at all levels of government. Section attorneys prosecute selected cases against federal, state, and local officials, and are available as a source of advice and expertise to other prosecutors and investigators.
Prosecutors have determined that the Bentley-Mason public corruption was widespread, engrained, and fairly open. Staffers who tried to reign in this corruption were chastised by the governor and, in some cases, fired and later smeared.
Mason is reportedly cooperating with the federal probe.
In violation of federal laws, the governor also ordered state law enforcement officials to use the federal National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and the Law Enforcement Tactical System (LETS), as well as data banks of other state and federal regulatory agencies, to find any incriminating evidence that might be used against Legal Schnauzer blogger Roger Alan Shuler and me. Accessing the national criminal databases for the purpose of retaliating against the governor’s critics and political adversaries is a federal offense.
Bentley announced Monday that he has asked God to forgive him. He again asked the people of Alabama to forgive him. Bentley has never specified why he needed this forgiveness.
Despite a mountain of evidence that Bentley personally directed and/or approved specific acts of public corruption, the governor has refused to resign. Individuals with close contact with the governor say that Bentley is erratic, delusional, and paranoid at this juncture. For this reason, federal prosecutors have decided to expedite the initiation of criminal charges against Bentley and Mason.
Stay tuned.
