A bribe is in fact, so rare, that I'd assume one would have at least a bit of evidence to present that accusation.

Or is this one of those, "I don't like that person, so I'll just make stuff up" things?

It's whatever you need it to be.

The corollary would be that, in all likelihood, bribes are documented as rare because you are incentivized to ensure that a bribe is never made public. Has Memphis done this before? Is this strange behavior to allow such a construction project to move forward while harming its residents then slow-rolling solutions?

Either way, this is a forum and not Academic Decathlon.
