Jerry DeWayne Jones and Terry Lee Williams pleaded guilty in Jefferson County Circuit Court to offering or giving anything to a public official for the purpose of corruptly influencing official action.
Jones and Williams face penalties of two to 20 years imprisonment and fines of up to $30,000 for the ethics convictions, which are class B felonies. Jefferson County Circuit Judge Clyde Jones set sentencing hearings for both defendants for 9:30 a.m. on March 19.
