{TN Waltz - John} Ford enters federal prison in Louisiana

Memphis Commercial Appeal ^ | 4/28/8 | Lawrence Buser

Former state senator John Ford entered the federal prison camp at Pollock, La., at 1:40 p.m. today.

Ford, who was convicted last year of accepting $55,000 in bribes as a state legislator, is serving a 5-year at the prison, which is about 400 miles from Memphis.

Prison spokesman Karen Million said Ford, prisoner No. 20286-076, will receive an orientation and a medical screening today and will be given a work assignment on Tuesday.

Ford was convicted as part of an FBI undercover sting dubbed Operation Tennessee Waltz. He is the 10th defendant to be sent to prison. Two others received probation.

The Pollock prison camp, a satellite facility adjacent to a high-security prison for more dangerous offenders, is in central Louisiana about 15 miles north of Alexandria in Kisatchie National Forest.

Hmmm, no party mentioned.

I wonder if he’s a democrat or a republican? /s

The Commercial Appeal knows that people in Memphis don't need to be reminded which party the Fords are in.

Since my father was a Main Street merchant (Bond Clothes)
He knew the check kiting Fords quite well.
This is back from the 50s.
Slime from top to bottom.

Looks like Uncle John won’t be able to make Jr’s wedding. Too bad, so sad.

I thought it was next weekend. oh well, John The Deal Maker must have had “other plans”. I predict that he’ll go berserk in a couple of weeks. He won’t have any women around to impregnate as he’s done in the past. Who will he turn to now? And no $70,000 Rolex to tell time with? Get used to the bells and the daily twice-a-day counts. At 67, John will go out of his mind.

But he has to remember he has a date in Nashville sometime this year. something to do with taking around $500,000 to $700,000 from TennCare. I hope he’s found guilty there, too. And for the sentence to be carried out after he gets out of Pollock FPC. He will die in prison is that’s the case.
