You people are missing the point. A mayor is elected to represent the city he lives in. If he doesn't live there, it's not legal. How does this not make sense, in this case, and as a law?
Just because he owns, ::cough cough:: owned* a property in B'Ham, doesn't mean that he resides there. Just because I own a home in Cullman, doesn't mean i'm a resident of Cullman.
Heehee, just cause someone rents a building or owns property somewhere doesn't mean they live there. Everything else with Langford aside, you're comfortable having a mayor for YOUR city that doesn't even live in YOUR city? Not only does that not show a vote of confidence or care about the city, but it's really blantant disrepect. A lot of place require that police officers reside in the city they work for. I completely agree with this.
I am from Fairfield as well and regardless if he spent most of his time at his home Fairfield oppose to his loft B'ham it has nothing to do with him how he ran the city! You can't possibly have a life or a "real career" because if you did you wouldn't be riding around wasting your time and gas on something so petty!
The point of the video is that lying under oath is not befitting of a mayor. A liar is not worthy to lead a city. The proof is in the pudding. 60 convictions worth.
@sbriggins - 60 convictions my azz! You know and I know that some bull! Hell Scruchy had 80! But anyways....Your point was as mayor of B'ham he lied under oath. He did not lie under oath because he had a residence in B'ham. Just because he did not lay his head down there every night does not mean it was not his residence.
I did read awayfromyou's comment. Read my reply to his comment. By law it's legal because he had a residence in his name in B'ham. The point I was making with Scrushy is the unfairness of Langford's indictment compared to Scrushy's. I was addressing two issues....Larry's residence and his bogus indictment. I am not justifying his actions because what he did was wrong but the indictment was bogus. And I still say by him residing in B'ham and Fairfield it was legit.
I'm a she, first of all. Second of all, Langford was indicted on a lot more than you stated below and did a tremendous amount of harm for this entire area. His underheaded dealings and poor decisions has affected all of us in the Birmingham area and we're suffering because of it. This has nothing to do with race. Take responsibility for his actions.
I am from Fairfield and whether you like it or not Fairfield is a part of Birmingham, just like Hoover, just like Vestavia, just like Mountain Brook, just like West End, just like Homewood
We are ALL a part of Birmingham ~ so... this video is just a waste of film
let me ask you this ~ whether he did what he's accused of or not, do you think the time fit the crime, i mean c'mon, rapist and murders are let loose back on the streets in less than 10 years. I'm not justifying what he was accused of, but don't you think that's too harsh of a punishment???
I agree...his conviction was bogus. I mean look at Richard Scrushy's case...hell they're treating Larry Langford like he is Jeffrey Dahmer. Dahmer killed 17 boys over a 13yr period and was sentenced to serve 936yrs! Langford accepted $236,000 in cash and gifts and is sentenced to 804yrs! Go figure.... Alabama is racist as hell!
It's ignorant to label Alabama as racist. Yes there are a lot of white people in Alabama that are racist, but there are also a lot of black people in Alabama who are racist. It's a two way street.
I know what the law says and this is a dead issue because I don't have time to keep going back and forth with you.

@awayinfrontofyou - He has a loft in B'ham so it justifies the fact he is a residence in B'ham which is legal.

You can say so all you want, but until you read the law you have no idea what you're talking about.
