You’d think that a Rodham and a carny could have solved this as a matter of professional courtesy instead of going to court.
This reminds me of dialogue from an episode of “The Young Ones” (an old British sitcom)
“There are two things in the world that scare me. Nuclear war.”
“And what’s the other one?”
“Carnies.”
Poorly written article. Gregory is dead. The bankruptcy trustee sued Rodham for collection of the note trying to collect the assets and pay off estate creditors. I have seen a couple of articles on this in the last couple of months. Rodham probably signed the note to keep it from looking like a bribe. IMHO, the bankruptcy trustee just wouldn’t honor an agreement among crooks not to pursue collection of the note. Poetic justice it is.
I am a former bank examiner for the State of AL. Gregory owned 2 or 3 banks in Alabama in the 1970s. He drained them all dry and they failed. It has been a long time, but I think some of his convictions came from that. Two of the banks that failed were the Bank of Notasulga and the Bank of Pine Apple.
