In the midst of a sex scandal, the embattled governor has
struck a deal to step down.
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, AL — Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley resigned
Monday night after striking a deal with prosecutors over misuse of campaign
funds in connection with a sex scandal that has dogged the embattled
politician. He was booked by the Montgomery County Sheriff Monday and signed a
plea agreement assenting to the charges. The lid blew off the story last year
when leaked audio recordings seemed to catch the governor speaking salaciously
and candidly with his alleged mistress.
