| Description | Edwin Edwards ended his home detention Wednesday and soon will be attending public events, nearly nine years after heading to prison for a corruption conviction.
In a Facebook posting, Edwards’ fiancee, Trina Grimes Scott, announced the four-term former governor had signed forms officially ending his six-month home detention and allowing him to begin a series of planned public appearances around Louisiana.
“FREE AT LAST… FREE AT LAST!!! IT’S OFFICIAL!!” Grimes wrote.
The charismatic and popular politician plans to embark on a book tour in about a week. He’s in talks for a reality TV show.
He’s making plans for a third wedding. And he’s having an 84th birthday party in the French Quarter on July 30. |
