Meigs officer resigns after drunken driving conviction
Lt. Saunders of Meigs Georgia resigned from the Air Force after a Mississippi Court sentenced him to six months on the chain gang and a $500 fine for drunken driving. The case stemmed from an accident where his car, driven by a woman companion, struck the car of a white woman. Saunders claimed he moved the car to clear traffic. He cited pressure from Senator John Stennis to dismiss him. Rev. Benjamin Adams called the conviction trumped up and due to circumstance and racial prejudice. Asst. Defense Secretary Burgess said Saunders received fair treatment.
