Sex, Lies, and Photographs: Alabama Power CEO Jeff Peoples Kowtows to “Sloppy” Joe Perkins
The latest question from Southern Company insiders is: When will Jeff Peoples be ousted? The appointment in January of Jeff Peoples as Chairman and CEO of Alabama Power after Mark A. Crosswhite’s abrupt ouster during Thanksgiving week in 2022 is seen as a stopgap appointment in that Peoples, 63 at the time of his appointment, has mandatory retirement at 65 years of age. Peoples has maintained the extremely controversial relationship with “Sloppy Joe” Perkins, the founder of Matrix, LLC, the consulting firm that engaged in alleged unethical if not criminal misconduct and whose entities received over $2.2 million a year…

Liar, Liar, Balch on Fire!
As the criminal predicated acts of the RICO enterprise are reviewed, new evidence is emerging. The genesis of this blog was the Newsome Conspiracy Case and now a key defense in the case has been confirmed as a lie. Repeatedly, under oath and in court pleadings, Balch & Bingham alleged they did not know who Alfred W. Seier III was. Al Seier was the individual who pulled a gun on Burt Newsome in 2012, and declared vulgarly, “This is last time you are going to f*** with my wife!” Newsome had spearheaded a legal collection effort against Seier’s wife Sharon…

Southern Company Under NRC Review; “Criminal Concealment” Confirmed by DOJ Probe in Puerto Rico; Oompa Loompa Frolics
In 2017, Hurricane Maria, a Category 5 hurricane with winds of up to 174 mph, devastated Puerto Rico, killing over 3,000 individuals in its path, and costing $91 billion in damage. But Southern Company’s criminal RICO enterprise appears to have seen an opportunity, a financial windfall.

Nuked! RICO Victims Wage Formal Complaints against Southern Company before Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Southern Company’s licenses and authority to operate nuclear power plants are in grave jeopardy. Multiple RICO victims have filed complaints with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to revoke and/or postpone the issuance of licenses, and are calling for formal NRC hearings on the fitness of Southern Company to operate these facilities. Sources tell us that Southern Company failed to inform the NRC that they had hired King & Spalding to conduct an internal probe of misconduct related to the criminal enterprise.
