Roy Moore had placed the monument in the Alabama Supreme Court building (under cover of darkness and without informing anyone he was doing so) in 2003.
Moore was Chief Justice of the court at the time, a position from which he was removed when he refused to follow court orders to remove the monument. He was re-elected and again, removed, in 2016, this time for refusing to follow the U.S. Supreme court in favor of same-sex marriage.
Moore moved it into the building at 1 Dexter Avenue, home to his Moral Law group today.

The building has been for sale for $2.5 Million for several years.
No word on what would happen to the monument if someone buys the 1856 building.
That corner of Dexter is now home to two Christian Monuments. The washing-machine sized monument inside the privately owned Moral Law building, and the display case with a bible inside in the city park next door.
The bible display as at the very back end of the triangle park recently renovated by the city.
A Bible on city park land?
ReplyDeleteJay, I did a story about it on Alabama Public TV back when the original Roy Moore 10 commandments protests were going on down the street, but nobody else picked it up.Sigh.
