Beasley denies shakedown over video gambling donations

Governor Beasley rejected claims of coercing video gambling operators to donate to his 1994 campaign.

Operators describe the demand as overt, while Beasley calls the accusations gutter-ball politics and denies memory of others at the event.

Caulder under fire over Troopers Association trips

Caulder says a state Senate subcommittee should direct questions about letting the state Troopers Association pay for travel for a former Public Safety head. He acknowledged receiving 2100 in trips in 1996 and 1997, including Biloxi and Las Vegas, while Rose disputes permission and says the law blocks such gifts. Beasley supports the nominee and calls it an innocent oversight.
