We heard someone coming out of one of our vendor locations this afternoon exclaiming over the front-page story about former Bridgeport may0r Max Schauf being convicted on the federal level in his Mail Fraud/Obstruction case….and we thought: are there really people who DON’T KNOW that Max is now a federal convict?

U.S. DIST. COURT, BENTON/BRIDGEPORT—More than a decade of corruption in the small Lawrence County town of Bridgeport came to an end Wednesday morning, May 8, 2013, when their sitting mayor, Max Schauf, entered a plea to all four counts on which he was indicted last November.
Schauf, 56, the foul-tempered, greedy little banty rooster of a man who used his position as mayor in Bridgeport to enrich himself and/or his children (and which he continues to do the latter, even now), is now a convicted felon, but as of press time, had not been removed from his office of mayor even after his federal conviction.
Instead, new mayor Brad Purcell was installed in the office (again as of press time, which was May 13) on Tuesday, May 14, at the regular monthly meeting of the Bridgeport city council.
