Governor Robert Bentley's legal team is working hard to portray Rebekah Mason and her husband Jonathan as scam artists who violated state ethics laws. Rebekah has gone from being Bentley's "lover" and sexual partner to his sacrificial lamb.
True to form, Rebekah has joined a long and distinguished list of discarded people in Bentley's life, including the governor's wife of 50 years, his children, closest friends, loyal supporters, church members, Republican Party leaders, and voters who elected him. Selfishness and personal creed have caused Bentley to betray the trust bestowed upon him by his family, friends, supporters and the public.
Working in conjunction with Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange, who has his own marital infidelity problem, the governor's legal team has thrown Rebekah under the bus with state investigators. She has been cast in the "villain" role -- a scheming crook who took advantage of a vulnerable old man (Bentley) by flirting with him until his desire for her attention and affection had reached a sexual attraction that Bentley could no longer resist.
In law, this is called the "I could not help myself" defense. In other words, Bentley was the helpless "victim" of Rebekah's calculated sexual manipulation of Alabama's conservative, Tea Party, "Christian" governor. Through the art of seduction, Rebekah made Bentley commit all of his crimes, for which he has asked God and the people of Alabama for forgiveness.
Strange is trying to help Bentley "fix" the state's criminal case against the two former lovers. Under Strange's politically motivated approach, Rebekah is the one who would be criminally charged, prosecuted and, upon conviction, would go to jail. Bentley, who is the real architect of their criminal scheme to defraud taxpayers, campaign donors, and "dark money" contributors, would escape criminal prosecution by the state of Alabama.
Bentley publicly proclaims that he is not the "subject" or "target" of any criminal investigation. He constantly looks for ways to blame others for his criminal acts. Every illegal act in the crime spree committed by Bentley and Rebekah was personally directed or approved by Bentley. He was the "kingpin" of an ongoing criminal enterprise operating out of the governor's office.
Bentley is aware of Strange's marital infidelity problem and this knowledge holds significant sway over Strange's actions as the state's top prosecutor. Remember, "Birds of a feather flock together".
Meanwhile, the federal investigation is proceeding based upon: (a) voluminous documents exchanged between Bentley, Mason, David Byrne (the governor's chief legal advisor) and various third parties; (b) electronic messages and data from cell phones and computers; (c) testimony provided by Spencer Collier and other former ALEA personnel: (d) financial records obtained from state agencies, banks, the Bentley campaign, and "dark money" corporations; (e) and a plethora of other physical and tangible evidence.
Rebekah, a mother of three young children, is cooperating with federal investigators.
The federal investigation is directed by the Justice Department in Washington.
Our Facebook news team is continuing to monitor the federal investigation to ensure that Governor Bentley is treated no differently than former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, who engaged in the same type of kleptocratic criminal scheme to defraud taxpayers, donors and others. Kilpatrick is now serving a 28-year sentence in federal prison.
Thus far, Bentley is still on track to be charged by federal prosecutors with a host of federal criminal charges.
