Long before lobbyist Jarrod Massey sat down with former state Sen. Scott Beason to buy his vote for legalizing electronic bingo, Massey had already made his deal with the devil.
He had done it several years before when he essentially "bought" another legislator, Rep. Terry Spicer, a Democrat from Elba, who today is in prison serving a sentence on public corruption charges stemming from bribes he received from Massey.
Massey knows a little about what Spicer is going through right now. He just recently completed his own sentence in a federal prison on conspiracy and bribing charges stemming from the leading role he played in attempting to buy the votes of state senators during the 2009-2010 legislative session that saw a major push by pro-gambling interests to legalize electronic bingo.
