Reading a post on Metrovitalization and Lawrence County Scandals reminded of this question.

Ricky Trinidad had no connection to Lawrence County. He came here from Florida, forming Metrovitalization, in 2022. Two years earlier, in 2020, his Florida company went bankrupt to the tune of over $50 million.

Marla (Gallo) Brown popped back up in Lawrence County about the same time as Ricky Trinidad surfaced. She had been living in Atlanta, operating four Pregnancy Aid Clinics, using state funds to advocate for the criminalization of abortion.

Marla was elected to the state legislature in 2022. Not long after that she posted an endorsement of Ricky Trinidad on her Facebook page. The two were so close that she removed her page when folk began asking questions about Trinidad's development schemes.

Do the two of them have a history stretching back to Georgia and Florida?

The surrogate mother lives in Alaska. The parents live in California. The surrogate came to Texas to have her baby because she prefers Texas law.

I’m glad that Ken’s come around to supporting Birth tourism.

I’ve noticed that some servers routinely give you free stuff in hopes that it will increase their tips. Why don’t all servers do that?

A lot of folk that have to stay somewhere for 7-21 days aren’t tourists.
