And he faces a felony trial on charges he bribed Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman to win appointment to a state board overseeing the health-care industry. Just a few weeks before that criminal trial was due to start, Scrushy, an ordained minister, announced the formation of  Kingdom Builders International Ministries, saying he and his wife \"have been called\" to the mission of helping African children and supporting church work. Maybe that is also the mission behind his lawsuit seeking $70 million from HealthSouth for wrongful termination. ";
