From Associated Press
Jurors began deliberations in the fraud trial of fired HealthSouth Corp. chief Richard Scrushy and quickly asked to review recordings secretly made by the FBI.
The jury of seven men and five women in Birmingham, Ala., asked U.S. District Judge Karon Bowdre for permission to listen to a pair of recordings of Scrushy’s talks with former HealthSouth finance chief Bill Owens, who wore a hidden microphone for the FBI.
