A bookkeeper for VictoryLand casino owner Milton McGregor is scheduled as the next witness in Alabama's gambling corruption trial.
Lynn Byrd is scheduled to take the witness stand Thursday morning in Montgomery. Prosecutors say she will be followed by an FBI agent and a legislative employee.
McGregor is on trial with five others on charges accusing them of buying and selling votes for legislation designed to protect McGregor's casino from a state crackdown on electronic bingo machines.
Country Crossing casino developer Ronnie Gilley, who pleaded guilty in the case, wrapped up five days of testimony Wednesday. He talked about offering bribes to legislators, but conceded he never carried through with most of them. Defense attorneys accused him of exaggerating his testimony in hopes of getting a shorter sentence.
