The scandal you are referring to is known as the "Georgia Land Scandal." It happened in the early 2000s when Georgia's governor, along with some legislators, were bribed to sell public land at significantly discounted prices to private developers. The scandal exposed corruption and led to criminal charges and investigations into the involved individuals.
