Lu-Lu's stunning legal bill

It will cost Bessemer taxpayers the stunning amount of $367,593.91 for her legal team in her recent state felony trial.

This is significantly higher than earlier estimates.

Former federal judge U.W. Clemon led a three-lawyer defense team in defending Alexander, who threatened to sue the city today if the bill is not paid.

Councilman Jesse Matthews moved to pay the bill, but other councilors wanted to hold off until next Tuesday.

Her legal bill should not be the tax burden for our city. Her "mistake" should not cost us. IF SHE BECOMES mayor, there is no TELLING what it will COST the city!!!!!!

Come on Bessemer! Let's stand for changing the City Council and Mayor's office!
