According to newspaper reports, Alabama Attorney General Troy King is under Federal investigation....The Birmingham News suggests gambling issues may be at the heart of the investigation, which is being conducted by Northern District U.S. Attorney Alice Martin, even though King is based in Montgomery. The blogger "Doc's Political Parlor" reports King was expected to announce his political plans on Thursday night. It was Bob Gambacurta at The Montgomery Independent who broke the grand jury story just before 8pm last night.
