You shouldn't make fun of lawyers. How else could we fill up our prisons if it wasn't for them?

Richard F. "Dickie" Scruggs is a prominent trial lawyer. He first came to the public eye after successfully suing the asbestos industry on behalf of ill shipyard workers. He later represented the state of Mississippi in the tobacco litigation of the 1990s.

He was indicted for attempted bribery in 2007. He pled guilty in March, 2008, and was sentenced to 5 years in prison on June 27, 2008.

Is a trail lawyer still considered "prominent" while serving a sentence for bribing a judge?
