Description

Former Tennessee lawmaker Robin Smith, convicted in a public corruption scheme, had her prison sentence reduced to probation after testifying against her colleagues. The scandal involved a fake company, Phoenix Solutions, where Smith and ex-state House speaker Glen Casada funneled taxpayer money for mailings to voters. Smiths lawyers argued it was unfair for her to serve time alone, and federal prosecutors agreed. Smith is now on probation, hoping for a Trump pardon to clear her record, while Casada and Cothren face no further punishment. Checkout Solipillow.com
