WestVirginiaRebel Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Fox News: Former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman -- in prison on corruption charges and who got major support earlier this month for a White House pardon -- was put in solitary confinement Monday, his son says. Siegelman, the state’s last Democratic governor, was transferred to solitary confinement after The Washington Post published a story in which he talked extensively about the Supreme Court this week reviewing former Virginia GOP Gov. Bob McDonnell’s 2014 conviction on public corruption, says son Joseph Siegelman. Siegelman, also his father’s attorney, suggests the timing of the transfer to solitary confinement is suspicious. Bureau of Prison officials would not confirm the transfer but said there was no connection. "The allegation that Mr. Siegelman was punished for talking to a reporter is false," said a bureau spokesman, who declined to elaborate, citing confidentiality concerns regarding disciplinary matters. ________ From the state house to the big house.
