Let me finish the sentence,...you can get away with just about anything". I was simply finishing the headline of this journal heading. "Ok Mugarian, what in the heck are you talking about?"

I don't know if you have been following the various corporate corruption cases lately, but the biggest joke of the American justice system (second to the OJ trial) has to be the case against former HealthSouth CEO, Richard Scrushy.

I spoke to a friend of mine who is very good friends with a former Wall Street mutual fund manager, and he said the the evidence against Scrushy was overwhelming. Scrushy faced 36 criminal charges,including conspiracy, securities fraud, mail fraud and a charge under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In June, he was acquitted on all 36 charges in his involvement in the company's $2.7 billion accounting fraud scandal. How did he do it? You're not going to believe this.

First you take 25 million, and buy yourself a crack team of legal experts. Secondly, you start a PR campaign, and pick a gullible jury from Birmingham, Alabama.

You're going to want to read this article for yourself. It is truly inbelievable.

AIG's GREENBERG:

I think Hank Greenberg is taking a page from HealthSouth's, Richard Scrushy. He has hired high-powered attorney David Boies, who is the same attorney that represented Al Gore during the famous Bush vs. Gore case that eventually decided the presidency.

Greenberg began his PR campaign by being inviewed by CNBC, and the next day on Bloomberg. Of course, David Boies was by his side.

Greenberg has been rumored to be among the super elite having affliations with "Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderberger Group, and the Trilateral Commission. In 1995, he was a former candidate for CIA director, and high-level functionary for all US presidents stretching back to Kennedy. He remains supremely confident, and defiant. His net worth is still at least $3 billion. Greenberg has transferred hundreds of shares of stock to his wife and Greenberg family trusts."- (source: fromthewilderness.com)
