This is a true story that reveals firsthand the Federal Justice Department's tricks and corrupt practices to indict and imprison anyone who may fall in their sights. Guilty or innocent, it makes no difference to them. Like police issuing speeding tickets, they ignore the facts and do anything to meet quotas imposed by their superiors. I lived among these dishonest tactics but would not acquiesce to these unethical practices while performing my duties as a young US Treasury special agent, only to become disillusioned with the overzealous prosecutors trying, to no avail, to insist on me testifying to lies just to convict otherwise innocent defendants. I left these criminals to pursue a career in private practice where I found true integrity and honor among top-flight executives at Union Carbide Corporation. I traveled the world, climbed to the highest ranks of international business, and later began my own tax and investment consulting firm, only to fall victim to the same monsters I worked for some thirty-five years earlier. I watched them firsthand lie on a search warrant, lie to the grand jury, threaten witnesses, and falsify information on an indictment all in their attempt to convict somebody, anybody, in an investigation all based on false informant statements traded to free a family member of real high crimes. You will hear the story of my orphan childhood, only to push myself through high school, college, graduate schools on my own and to gain admittance to some of the most difficult positions to obtain. An absolute perfect record only to be entrapped and forced to plead guilty to charges I did not commit. You will learn of the government's tricks, lies, and corruption of its own agents all to "win at all costs." These people are not our friends, nor are they here to help. You will hear my survival stories as a child, an adult, and a sixty-three-year ex-Federal agent entering Federal prison to challenge my final survival performance. 1
