Charged, and so this is very darn close to donald trump, and the link that you raise is that if the cfo were convicted of a crime, and todays indictment is a big deal, and if he were indicted, the question becomesk is he the only one in on that, the cfo and co-conspirators and other agents of the company or doing it the behest of leader, and by the way, in court, if you were involved in a criminal conspiracy, and it is someone elses evidence, and you have an out or if you dont, and it goes up th...
