I haven't even watched the episode yet but going by the comments he's got you all fooled he was the Mayor of my city the guy is dirty as they come my friend the guy owns one of the biggest weed dispensaries in my city do you know how he got all the licenses and permits to open it when no one else was getting them cause at the time it was really hard to get one cause the law just passed to legalize Marijuana and our city didn't have a dispensary yet and he was the first one to open one right after he got removed from his position and you can try to think of legit ways on how he got one but keep this in mind it was a conflict of interest and he knew he was going to be recalled so he did a lot of shady shit to push laws threw in his favor to be able to get everything he needed from the city to open a dispensary now he's one of the most successful businesses in the city making millions of dollars he got you fooled wearing a suit looking all professional if you were to see him in public you would think otherwise he walks around like a mafia dude with all gold jewelry expensive track suits nice cars not looking like someone who cares about the city or the citizens

And I gotta say I knew one person that sat in jail 6 months who the witness eventually said that she wasn't 100 percent sure, after 6 months he was let go immediately and after 6 months he started a fight with the black Bruce Lee, I mean of all the people in the pod this the dude out there on the yard doing high kicks and holding that shit up straight and training everyday.. well Bruce Lee beat the breaks off the innocent guy and then they called the innocent dudes name to be let go.. he was bleeding everywhere... 5 more minutes of just chilling he'd of been ok

@maxlivingstone6863 you mean the prosecutor opened up an investigation against the mayor. That's why he lost the election. Which of course had the investigation been completed before the election it would have proven his innocence. Yes, i would have sued for defamation, absolutely! Just because he met with an old buddy down on the river at night -like he said most movies would portray it as a bad scene- doesn't mean he was doing anything wrong,immoral, or illegal for them to warrant an investigation on him. But hey it's politics in a small city. Fall River being between 2 major cities that had major crimes and mob ties, doesn't surprise me that someone was trying to play a good guy dirty.
