MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - The defense rested Tuesday in the trial of a former Tennessee state senator charged with corruption after calling just three witnesses.
Former Sen. John Ford, 64, did not take the stand in his federal trial on bribery and extortion charges.
In his summation for the jury, prosecutor Tim DiScenza rejected defense claims that the FBI went too far in setting up a fake company that offered money for changes in state law.
