What did the esteemed Council member do to warrant a KKK robe?

Edmond Ford was the one that got caught in the FBI sting accepting bribes.


Nope

John Ford is the former State Senator (from Memphis) caught by the FBI in the TN Waltz sting.

Edmund Ford is the Memphis City Councilman who ran up $16,000 in unpaid electrical bills (without having his power shut off). This was after Edmund lobbied heavily for Joseph Lee III to run the Utility company. Later, when the Council was voting on removing Lee, Edmund accused them of being like the KKK. That's what was behind the robe.

Both Fords are in the same corrupt family that sent Ophelia to Nashville using dead voters, and almost inflicted Harold Ford on the US Senate.

Here are a couple of recent threads:
