Backstory Podcast Solo #1 Southwest Alabama Police Academy (SWAPA)

No Representation is made that the quality of legal services to be preformed is greater than the legal services provided by other lawyers. The Southwest Alabama Police Academy was a fixture in our small town of Bay Minette in Baldwin County, Alabama. You are about to hear an unbelievable tale of political co-option of the system and our local loss of the Southwest Alabama Police Academy at Faulkner State Community College (now Coastal Alabama CC). So to quote some Raines Rushin: CUI BONO? Literally meaning "who benefits?," cui bono? is a rhetorical Latin legal phrase used to imply that whoever appears to have the most to gain from a crime is probably the culprit. The participants: District Attorney David Whetstone, District Attorney Judy Newcomb, ADA (now State Rep.) Matt Simpson, Sheriff Huey Mack, Executive Secretary of the Peace Officers Standards and Training Commission: Chief Alan Benefield (Chief of what I have no idea) and let's not forget the Examiners of Public Accounts who never in 20-odd-years audited this place before the 2003 investigation. And at the time Congressman Byrne was making his bones cleaning up the 2 year college system and this was a part of that cleanse, as Rep. Simpson can surely attest (ADA who prosecuted Mrs. Vines). Interestingly, the defense raised eyebrows at the fact this career bean-counter at the Examiners of Public Accounts suddenly became the CFO at Bishop State Community College. These are the stories that we know and are going to continue to tell. From the source. Mr. Davis and Mrs. Vines did a very brave thing to come on here and speak truth about powerful people. I hope you will thank them if you ever have the pleasure to meet such a fine lady and gentleman. What a DAMN Tragedy.
