Last March, I published a massive interview with Eric Lannon, a figure notorious throughout the Southeast for all kinds of shenanigans. Then in December, the Richmond “legend” was behind bars facing three felony charges. We haven’t really heard a lot about him since, until today when he posted the following pic on Facebook with Al Sharpton. Yes, THAT Al Sharpton — The American civil rights activist, Baptist minister, and television/radio talk show host.
We aren’t sure how Al Sharpton and Lannon met. But the pic itself is about as classic Lannon as it gets.
