On Fire! Southern Company Criminal Misconduct Allegations Escalate and Solidify
Top executives at Southern Company appear to have lied repeatedly, consistently, and habitually. What a hot mess! Claiming that a million-dollar internal probe did not find out who authorized or why a surveillance effort was conducted against ex-Southern Company CEO Tom Fanning and his then-girlfriend in 2017, Southern Company looks like a sack of lying fools at best or a bunch of incompetent imbeciles at worst. Yesterday’s Wall Street Journal report appears to solidify and escalate the criminal misconduct allegations against Southern Company, and shows an epic size hole in their compliance, regulatory, and oversight executive team. No one believes…

Mumbo Jumbo! No Mystery who Paid for Southern Company Surveillance Operations
Southern Company prematurely states, “We have moved on.” We, the CDLU, have not. A report published by The Wall Street Journal today outlining the “mystery” corporate surveillance operations at Southern Company has spurred more scrutiny in that Southern Company claims “it has no idea who ordered the operation or why.” “Southern Company is using mumbo jumbo words. Southern Company paid for the surveillance, and they do not deny the expenditures at all,” said Ernesto Pichardo, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the CDLU. “Last year, according to news reports, Southern Company paid a generous financial settlement to former…

Town Probe Over; SEC, DOJ Investigations of Southern Company Escalate; NRC Digs Into Svinicki
The correspondence we received recently from the Office of Professional Responsibility at the U.S. Department of Justice was clear: the probe of disgraced ex-U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town is over. “We are taking no further action,” they wrote, which reveals that an alleged deal was cut in 2020. The quid pro quo: the abrupt resignation of Town meant he wouldn’t be investigated or prosecuted for criminal misconduct, especially now since he is no longer a U.S. Attorney No further action, indeed. Even though Town is off the hook, insiders claim that the criminal probe of Southern Company’s criminal enterprise is…

Ex-Balch & Bingham Attorneys are Now Federal Prison Inmates 04104-510 and 35504-001
Convicted pedophile and ex-Balch & Bingham attorney Chase T. Espy is now inmate 04104-510 at the Federal Penitentiary in Atlanta, Georgia, while ex-Balch partner Joel I. Gilbert, convicted of money laundering and bribery in the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal, is inmate 35504-001 at the Federal Prison Camp in Montgomery, Alabama. Balch has boasted these last five-years of expanding their footprint in the Southeast, and now the embattled firm can add two convicted felons in Atlanta and Montgomery. Both convicted felons represented Southern Company, one of Balch’s top clients currently in the middle of a sex and accounting scandal. With only…

Simmering Southern Company Sex Scandal Shakes Stopgap Appointments and Stirs Suspicious Minds
Southern Company’s annual shareholders meeting yesterday was a façade hiding the allegations of sexual misconduct and accounting fraud that has shaken up the stopgap appointments of Southern Company Chairman and CEO Chris Womack and Alabama Power Chairman and CEO Jeff Peoples. Executives at the embattled utility must retire at 65 years of age. The retirement age is mandatory. Womack is 64 while Peoples was 63 when he was appointed in January. The bombshell insider reports by DonaldWatkins.com has caused the senior management to try to find the leakers. Top sources are now tightlipped and in lock down mode caused by…

Another Matrix Mess? Joe Perkins and Matrix Goons Allegedly Smear Self-Made Businessman Stan Pate
Joe Perkins, the diminutive consultant to Alabama Power and founder of Matrix, LLC, the obscure political consulting firm, is embroiled in yet another scandal. This time Perkins and his Matrix firm are in the middle of a lawsuit in the heart of Alabama that alleges libel and slander. This latest scandal out of Tuscaloosa raises the serious question: Who would ever want to hire Perkins, the Oompa Loompa of Alabama politics, if you could end up getting sued, fired, or investigated? Look at Florida. Matrix, LLC, was officially terminated by Florida Power & Light (FPL), one of the largest utilities in the United…

Kerr Running to the Fire Escape? Five-Alarm Scandal Engulfs Southern Company
Jim Kerr, the former Chief Compliance Officer and General Counsel at Southern Company, who met with us, the CDLU, in December of 2017 and later lied to us about Southern Company’s involvement in the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal and the Newsome Conspiracy Case, is allegedly looking for a new job, according to DonaldWatkins.com.

Holy Tanaka! Southern Company Pays Hush Money to Fanning’s Ex-Girlfriend and the Spy who Infiltrated Her Life
Ex-Alabama Power Chairman and CEO Mark A. Crosswhite was ousted in November for spying on his boss Tom Fanning, the Chairman and CEO of Southern Company, in 2017 and his then-girlfriend, Kim Tanaka. Tanaka is a beautiful, dedicated, hard-working and “pleasant to the eyes” gym instructor. The surveillance in 2017 was to find evidence of a bisexual tryst to blackmail and force Fanning to step down so that Crosswhite could take over. But Fanning was a heterosexual male, killing the scheme. But the surveillance appears to have never ended. Holy Tanaka! DonaldWatkins.com reports: On September 22, 2022, Kimberly Tanaka finally…

Corporate Execs Were Protected by Southern Company Lackeys; Balch Warned that Emails Could “Easily End Up in the Wrong Hands”
For at least two years, 2017 and 2018, U.S. Attorney Jay Town, Principal Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey H. Wood, and U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions appear to have never allowed a probe of Southern Company or an expansion of the investigation in North Birmingham to happen on their watch. Since the Southern Company criminal RICO enterprise had their grip on the U.S. Department of Justice with three of their most staunch lackeys in key positions, no probes or an expansion of the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal ever happen. The anonymous documents we, the CDLU, received included a list of corporate…

Email Exposé: Southern Company Lobbyist Critical Element in North Birmingham; DOJ Compromised
The trifecta was complete. With U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Principal Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey H. Wood, and U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town, Southern Company compromised the U.S. Department of Justice with three of their most ardent lackeys in power at the same time. We, the CDLU, provided documentation in December of 2017 to Jim Kerr, the Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer, and Chief of Staff of Southern Company showing indisputably that Jeffrey H. Wood, a lobbyist for embattled law firm Balch & Bingham, had lobbied on behalf of Alabama Power in the second and third quarters…

Southern Company Involved “Up to Their Eyeballs” in North Birmingham
Southern Company lied to us in 2018 when they said they were not involved in the North Birmingham Bribery Scandal. Jim Kerr, the former Chief Compliance Officer, Senior Vice President, General Counsel, and Chief of Staff of Southern Company blatantly denied in January of 2018 that Southern Company was involved with the immoral and criminal effort to suppress African Americans from having their toxic property tested by the EPA. Kerr had the audacity to call the racism a “hypothesis.” Now, we, the CDLU, have received a bunch of emails and documents anonymously showing that Southern Company was indeed involved in…

RICO Enterprise Lied and Bribed! Southern Company’s “Creative Accounting” at Vogtle Exposed
Net income at Southern Company rose to $3.5 billion in 2022, a 47 percent increase as compared to 2021. Last year, the Alabama Public Service Commission rubber-stamped three rate increases at Alabama Power generating an estimated $400 million a year in additional revenue. The most-profitable subsidiary of Southern Company, Alabama Power, has been helping cover the enormous billion-dollar cost overruns at both the Vogtle Nuclear Power Plant and the boondoggle Kemper Plant in Mississippi. But Alabama Power is not alone. Another Southern Company subsidiary, Georgia Power obtained a $1.8 billion rate increase on December 20, 2022. Causing outrage, the rate…

Spreadsheets Confirm Waste of Millions by Southern Company Against Innocent Victims
The expenditures had no corporate purpose whatsoever. In a seven-week period in the summer of 2020, Southern Company approved expenditures of over $318,000 to target, smear, intimidate, and threaten innocent victims. The victims included us, the CDLU, Burt Newsome, K.B. Forbes and their respective families. The CDLU, the Forbes Family, and the Newsome Family were not adversaries or competitors of Southern Company or its subsidiaries. At a burn rate of $45,000 a week, Southern Company may have spent more than $1 million a year in expenses related to dark ops, surveillance, and clandestine misconduct spearheaded by obscure consulting firm Matrix,…

Spring Break Madness at Southern Company
We will return next week. However, Spring Break madness has erupted at Southern Company. From DonaldWatkins.com stunning reports, to allegations of accounting fraud, from independent directors allegedly pocketing millions, to Kristine L. Svinicki’s unethical, conflict-of-interest tainted appointment, Southern Company is suffering from complete chaos. Employee morale is in the toilet and employees are making their angry voices known. Spring Break…a time to let loose and party. The chain of command at Southern Company changes this week, yet no one is drinking from a beer bong, or celebrating with a wet t-shirt contest. Instead, Kerr, Peoples, Fanning and others are suffering…
