Bentley had an affair with an aide, and used public funds to cover it up. With the plea deal, he gets away with basically a slap on the wrist, and loses some campaign funds.
What bothers me is this is a current history for Alabama governors. Don Siegelman was sentenced to six years in prison on charges of corruption, of which he was just released in February. I get it. Politicians suck. But man, I just want it not suck, just for a little while.
