  • Executive Intelligence Review, Volume 16, Number 35, September 1, 1989
    ar-a.ltn In 1922 Is America still the land of "liberty and justice for all"? Or, are we heading into a totalitarian police state, like Nazi Germany or Soviet Russ. ia? Read this book, and learn the truth about what happened to justice in the United States. U.S.A. vs. Lyndon LaRouche, et al. "I SHOULD GET A CIGAR .. " bragged the judge after railroading . through. the frameup and conviction of presidential candidate Lyndon LaRouche. Judge Albert V. Bryan was the judge who finally accomplished what a federal government "Get LaRouche" Strike Force had been attempting to do since 1983. That task force swung into motion using the resources of the FBI, CIA, IRS, and private agencies, at the instigation of Henry Kissinger, who bragged in the summer of 1984 that "we'll take care of LaRouche after the elections." The first federal case against LaRouche and his associates, held in Boston before Federal Judge Robert Keeton, backfired on the government. A mistrial was declared, and the jury said they would have acquitted everyone on al/ charges. But in Alexandria federal court, the "rocket docket" did the job. Judge Bryan hand-picked the jury in less than two hours, excluded all evidence of government harassment, and rushed the defense so rapidly that convictions' were brought in on all counts in less than two months from the indictment. LaRouche was sent to jail for 15 years, on January 27,1989", a political prisoner. The conviction and impris­ onment have provoked protests of outrage from around the world. In this book, you'll see why.

  • White Collar Crime
    WHITE COLLAR CRIME Robert J. Anello* & Miriam L. Glaser** INTRODUCTION A mention of New York City, the seat of the Second Circuit, invariably evokes thoughts of finance. The home of Wall Street and the World Trade Center, Manhattan is also home to many of the country’s major banks, hedge funds, and stock exchanges; the Securities & Exchange Commission has a branch office in New York, as do the Federal Reserve Bank, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice. Even the Court of International Trade is located in Manhattan. Unsurprisingly then, New York City has also played host to some of the most important white collar criminal prosecutions in the nation. As the federal appellate court with jurisdiction over this financial center, the Second Circuit has ruled on many critical issues related to white collar crime. Distinctive in its understanding of business practice, its readiness to identify and oppose legislative encroachment into the realm of the judiciary, and in the high value it places upon legal history and stare decisis, the Second Circuit’s sophisticated jurisprudence has influenced courts nationwide. This Article will address six different areas of white collar law and procedure: (1) fraud, (2) the Racketeer Influenced & Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), (3) conspiracy, (4) public corruption, (5) white collar practice, and (6) sentencing. Many of the cases profiled in this Article have driven legal and cultural developments far beyond the federal courts, including the cases of Leona Helmsley, one of New York’s most prominent real estate moguls; the “Mafia Commission,” a take-down of the bosses of the Five Families of La Cosa Nostra; and Abscam, a massive sting operation created by the federal government to expose corrupt officials.

    Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Bernard “Buddy” Stein Free Speech Movement Oral History Project Interviews conducted by Lisa Rubens in 1999 Copyright © 2014 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. **************************************** All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Bernard “Buddy” Stein dated October 1, 2002. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

    14 WOODS JPW 3/14/2012 4:24 PM CIVIL FORFEITURE AS A REMEDY FOR CORRUPTION IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE CONTRACTING IN NEW YORK John P. Woods* I. A LONG HISTORY OF PUBLIC CORRUPTION SCANDALS IN NEW YORK As such things go in New York City, the scandal centering on James L. Marcus, the Commissioner of Department of Water Supply, Gas, and Electricity, which came to light in December 1967 fell into the middle range. It was certainly not the first public corruption scandal. That dubious distinction belongs to Willem Verhulst, the first Provisional Director of the New Amsterdam colony who was removed from office in the spring of 1626 on an accusation that he and his wife had misappropriated funds and cheated the Indians when New Amsterdam was not quite a year old.1 The Marcus scandal also certainly lacked the bizarreness that was attributed to Edward Hyde, Lord Cornbury, the Colonial Governor of New York from 1702 to 1708, who was reputed to have not only pocketed £1,500 allocated for fortifying the Narrows but to have strolled the walls of the Battery wearing a dress.2 Nor did the Marcus scandal involve the largest amount of graft. That title was presumably and hopefully, retired by the Tweed Ring, which is * John P. Woods is a Member of the New York Bar and operates the Law Office of John Woods.

WHITE COLLAR CRIME Robert J. Anello* & Miriam L. Glaser** INTRODUCTION A mention of New York City, the seat of the Second Circuit, invariably evokes thoughts of finance. The home of Wall Street and the World Trade Center, Manhattan is also home to many of the country’s major banks, hedge funds, and stock exchanges; the Securities & Exchange Commission has a branch office in New York, as do the Federal Reserve Bank, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice. Even the Court of International Trade is located in Manhattan. Unsurprisingly then, New York City has also played host to some of the most important white collar criminal prosecutions in the nation. As the federal appellate court with jurisdiction over this financial center, the Second Circuit has ruled on many critical issues related to white collar crime.
