A Louisiana hearing committe has recommended permanent disbarment of an attorney who had “pleaded guilty to accepting bribes in exchange for fixing criminal matters filed and pending in Baton Rouge City Court…” The attorney was a senior prosecutor who failed to answer the bar disciplinary charges adjudicated by the hearing committee.

NBC33tv.com reports that the arrest and conviction was part of an investigation dubbed Operation Illegal Motion. (Mike Frisch)
