Catmony-oh there are many more "investments" by Opp folks. They are stonewalling FOIA requests.

The Mayor of Opp semingly thought it was a good opportunity. He supposedly "invested" in 3,000 shares. The questions are when and under what terms the investment was made.
Minimal due diligence by the City would have shown that this was an obvious scam with zero chance of accomplishing anything but hyping the sale of the penny stock.
Follow the money.

Oh please, jeremy, of course I am talking about the Alabama open records act. FOIA is a generic term.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF OPP, ALABAMA
SWhen the Florida stock scammer John Beebe approached Opp, AL offici als about his proposed "biodiesel" plant they rolled over on their bellies and pissed themselves like beagle pups.
Hundreds of jobs Beebe promised. Boxcar loads of feedstock for the peanut plant a day.
It was all bullchit.
Beebe is a bankrupt florida scammer who has never developed anything in his life. So Opp and the county bought into this why?
Since the city is actively dodging FOIA requests, we think that the answer is payoffs.
Who got paid in stock, Mr. Mayor? How much did you get, Mr. Mayor? Why are you dodging FOIA requests, Mr. Mayor?

If this reporter had any balls he would do a real news story. Who got paid off?

Sloppy reporting, BTW. You could have verified in a single phone call that you don't negotiate with the IRS on excise taxes. Not that it really matters, since this scam has not and never will produce a drop of product.

Ask hizzoner the mayor why he has not responded to TWO FOIA requests concerning the city's dealings with this scam. And ask who got paid off in stock.

Typical small town, compromised newspaper. They won't go after the real story for fear of ruffling.
See Anniston for portraits in courage, and real rural journalism.
