Citing a lack of evidence, a California Superior Court judge dropped a bribery charge against Apple’s chief security officer.
A grand jury had charged Thomas Moyer with one count of bribery in a case that involved questionable practices by two members of the Santa Clara Sheriff’s Office. The duo allegedly withheld four concealed carry weapons (CCW) permits meant for Apple security personnel in exchange for 200 iPads worth $70,000.
California Superior Court Judge Eric Geffon dismissed the bribery charge against Moyer on Tuesday, saying that Moyer lacked “corrupt intent” when he offered to donate the iPads to the sheriff’s office.
