BushBot Scandal in Florida
http://www.tallahassee.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060428/CAPITOLNEWS/604280337/1010

A veteran corrections administrator says Gov. Jeb Bush ignored his warning not to appoint James Crosby as the state's top prison boss, a position the governor asked Crosby to resign from in February amid a growing corruption scandal.

An insider who worked his way up from intake supervisor, and a favorite of the rank and file, Crosby had a knack for politics and campaigned enthusiastically for the Bush family, raising money for the governor and his older brother, the president.

Crosby and a former chief lieutenant are targets of state and federal investigations into allegations of steroid trafficking, misappropriation of state money and misappropriation of state property.
