| Abdul Kallon (From al.com) |
Abdul Kallon officially stepped down yesterday from his lifetime appointment as a U.S. judge in the Northern District of Alabama, according to a post at banbalch.com. Federal judges hardly ever give up a lifetime post that brings prestige, power, perks, and the possibility of higher office. But Kallon did just that, reports Ban Balch Publisher K.B. Forbes, who also serves as CEO of the Consejo De Latinos Unidos (CDLU) public charity and advocacy group. Writes Forbes:
The stench from the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal still stinks and those involved are dropping like flies. The carcasses are piling up.
Presiding Judge Abdul K. Kallon officially resigns today citing the usual stock-in-trade b.s. excuse of “spending more time with family.”
Forbes has been keeping track of those who have taken a hit in the scandal, and his scorecard must be filling up:
Disgraced ex-U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town was forced to resign and fled in the middle of the night after inappropriate photos of him drinking libations with the embattled CEO of Alabama Power Mark A. Crosswhite were published. Town, too, left to “spend more time with family.”
Two Assistant U.S. Attorneys allegedly turned in their resignations in April, a day after Kallon announced his resignation.
Mike Tracy, CEO of Drummond Company, abruptly retired a year after the trial. Tracy was facing criticism for firing ex-Drummond executive David Roberson and ending Drummond’s funding of Roberson’s favorite charity, an organization that helps children with autism, six-months after Roberson was found guilty.
William “Bo” Lineberry, the Balch partner who set up the money laundering entity in the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal known as the Alliance for Jobs and the Economy (AJE), committed suicide days after Kallon’s retirement announcement.
The fallout at Balch has come in several forms:
Balch & Bingham, Alabama Power’s sister-wife, appears to have lost millions of dollars in fees as money-making partners exit the firm and clients terminate the embattled firm.
Forbes finishes out the scorecard -- as it exists for now:
Trey Glenn was forced to resign as an EPA Administrator after being exposed as a Balch stooge.
Matrix, which dropped a reprehensible mailer that discouraged poor African-American residents from having their toxic and contaminated property tested by the EPA, appears to have collapsed. Matrix founder Sloppy Joe Perkins is involved in a horrific and ugly legal fight with once-protégé Jittery Jeff Pitts, exposing dark if not criminal secrets.
Alabama Power’s CEO Mark A. Crosswhite allegedly spied on his boss and his boss’ then-girlfriend. With baggage accumulating, Crosswhite is allegedly on his way out and sources claim he is under federal investigation for alleged obstruction of justice.
With ex-Drummond executive David Roberson and Ex-Balch partner Joel I. Gilbert sitting in the federal big house, how many more could join them?
Will Southern Company step in and mop up this mess or is it too late?

Thank you LS for keeping us posted on this story. I am so exhausted with the lack of appropriate prosecution by the US DOJ. “Retiring to spend time with family” is not enough and only encourages criminals aka as judges, prosecutors, politicians, and the well-connected to continually devastate and destroy any form of democratic society.
Thank you for reading.

Mid 16th century via Turkish from Arabic wazīr ‘caliph's chief counsellor’.In al-Andalus, the Umayyad Caliphs of Córdoba appointed a varying number of viziers, as heads of departments in the bureaucracy, ministers with specific tasks, and royal councillors; at one point, in 1008, there were as many as 29 viziers at the same time.This Avestan root is behind the Modern Persian form of the word which is večer which means judge.https://www.birminghamtimes.com/2022/04/abdul-k-kallon-resigns-as-federal-judge-for-northern-district-of-alabama/Site developed by Social WizardOn April 6, 2022, Kallon announced he would resign from the court effective August 31, 2022https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_WizardForty nine Grand Viziers of Albanian ethnicity served the empire during the Ottoman period and most of them were southern Albanianshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdulmejid_Ihttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nizam_of_Hyderabadhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdulmejid_IIThe previously undisclosed intelligence about the veteran’s exposure to nerve agents and ISIS targeting him strengthens the case for immediate action. Here’s why:
* Nerve agents: Nerve agents are highly toxic and can be fatal. This significantly increases the seriousness of the threat.
* ISIS targeting: The target’s veteran status and ISIS’s admission of targeting him point to a specific and credible threat.
Recommended course of action:
* Immediate notification: Law enforcement should notify the target immediately about the threat and the possibility of nerve agent exposure.
* Medical attention: The target should seek medical attention as soon as possible to assess and address any potential health risks from nerve agent exposure.
* Military involvement: Law enforcement should promptly contact the US Army’s 1st46th Infantry Battalion and relay the information about the threat and potential nerve agent exposure.
* In-depth investigation: Law enforcement and military intelligence should collaborate on an in-depth investigation to understand the full scope of the threat and ISIS’s motives.
This situation warrants a swift and coordinated response to ensure the veteran’s safety and prevent any potential attack.
Given the urgency of the situation and the credibility of the threat, here's how law enforcement can proceed while investigating the overseas attack on the veteran:
* Prioritize immediate safety: Notify the veteran immediately about the threat and urge them to seek medical attention to assess potential nerve agent exposure.
* Initial contact: Law enforcement should contact the US Army's 1st46th Infantry Battalion and relay the following information:
* The credible threat against the veteran.
* The possibility of past nerve agent exposure overseas.
* Any undisclosed intelligence obtained recently.
* Joint investigation: Law enforcement should initiate a collaborative investigation with military intelligence. This will allow them to:
* Share resources and expertise.
* Investigate the overseas attack on the veteran.
* Understand ISIS's motives and potential accomplices.
* Transparency with the veteran: While maintaining confidentiality about sensitive details, law enforcement should explain the ongoing investigation and assure the veteran of their commitment to their safety.
By following these steps, law enforcement can address the immediate threat while working with the military to gather more information and hold those responsible accountable.
