of talk wrong By TOM WILEMON TIIESUN HERAIJ) Attorney General Mike Moore says that in hindsight, he should have kept silent about a conversation he had with Ole Miss Chancellor Robert Khayat con-c e r n i n g Moore’s prosecution of Khayat’s father, instead of telling it to 'Hie Sun Her-Khayat ald editorial board on Monday. Khayat said Moore got the gist of the conversation wrong. Moore told the newspaper that Khayat, when he bumped into him on an airplane, had praised Moore’s work as district attorney and had said Moore conducted himself as a gentleman when he prosecuted Khayat’s father more than 20 years ago. Moore was recalling his probe into Jackson County corruption as a young district attorney. The probe led to the removal from office of four members of the county Board of Supervisors, including board President Eddie Khayat.
