Another tale from Alabama's lawless town of the idle rich.




Alabama Confidential reporters have been scouring for holiday news in one of our favorite small towns. This story came our way and it's a doozy. It seems that a socialite in this town hosted a party associated with a wedding. According to one of my sources, whose brother was at the party, the highlight of the evening were the trendy ice cube shot glasses. Cold straight booze gulped very quickly can make a person very drunk. Here's the gossip as a result of this drunkedness among the privileged young invitees to this upscale soiree:

(1) One guest attempting to leave the party struck and caused property damage to five vehicles.

(2) Another guest driving up B.... Avenue struck a telephone pole and thankfully there were no injuries.

(3) Another female guest was found In flagrante delicto in the bushes with someone who wasn't her husband.

(4) Another totally passed out person - who even the guests could not identify - was checked into a local motel to sober up.

(5) The police chief was at the party and made sure all the loose ends were neatly tied up. There were no DUI charges filed.

Just another tale about how the privileged skate the law in a wealthy small town in south Alabama. I wonder if there were any drugs present?

People called complaining about the noise at the party and the police chief assured them he had the situation in hand. Heh,heh,heh.

If one of the drunken drivers leaving the party had collided and killed someone - maybe a teenager, what would have been the fallout?

I'm wondering how deep the police chief is in the pocket of the wealthy in this small town? How about his recent ski trip to Colorado? Did he pay for that himself? Is this protector of the people headed for a fall?

Given the identity of the person behind the wheel of the car crash in item (2), was there any effort on the part of the mayor to suppress DUI charges?

And the hostess of this train wreck of a party? Will she retain her cherished "queen bee" status as a result of this debacle? Alabama Confidential will let you know.

More Juicy Holiday Gossip:

Who was the well known entrepreneur who flies his ex-wife in his personal aircraft to a football game in Tuscaloosa, then in front of friends, accuses her of doing the "monica" to a certain person? He then abandons the woman and flies back home leaving her stranded at the football game. Poor J... Oh by the way, according to other sources, the guy who got the "monica" was the same guy who wrecked the 5 cars in (1). Everything in small towns is connected...

until next time...

AC,

You didn't tell the whole story. You neglected to mention who was chasing whom, and why they were chasing (which is how the telephone pole was hit). Perhaps your 'source' didn't know that part.

I don't understand why you have a grudge against Brewton. Somebody hurt your feelings?
Are there no characters to write about where you live? Surely, there are some partiers, upper class, ne'r do-wells, or gold-diggers hanging out in the mansions of your hometown. I just can't believe the folks in your neck of the woods are all upstanding, law abiding citizens - with no faults to speak of.

You can rest assured the citizens of our little berg know what goes on around and about. We are Southern, not stupid. And as you are an avid participant, you know how fast tales and gossip spread!

I don't agree with all that goes on here, and I think that Town Leaders and parents should set an example
for our youth instead of being examples of how NOT to behave. I doubt though that it would be any different in other town.

This is the best site ever. I am glad someone out there realizes the level of corruption and good old boy treatment that goes on. Having grown up in Brewton and participating in a high level of decadence nothing being said surprises me. I still have several close friends that live in town and on occasion we will go out. It does not take long to realize the only thing that has changed is a few faces. Even as a 15 yr old kid the alcohol drugs and women were always easy to come by. It only takes a few hours out on the town to realize some things never change. I love that town....
