Former state senator John Ford was assigned to maintenance duty today at the federal prison in Louisiana where he is serving a 5-year prison sentence for bribery.
“He will be temporarily assigned to assist the dorm orderlies with sanitation in the dorms,” said Karen Million, spokesman for the Federal Prison Camp at Pollock, La. “After we have a chance to assess his skills, we may assign him to a different job assignment.”
Ford, 65, who reported to the camp Monday afternoon, was convicted last year of taking $55,000 in bribes from undercover FBI agents in the Tennessee Waltz investigation into public corruption.

This is a very low security fed prison located in Pollock, Louisiana which doesn’t even have a perimiter fence.

The people in Memphis don’t need to be told such things.
Things best not said ... unless it’s the >other< party ...
