You’ve probably never heard of the name but you have now. Software CEO Robert Brockman is facing the largest recorded tax evasion charge to the tune of nearly $2B and counting. But those aren’t the only salacious allegations in fact they don’t even come close.
According to the 39-page indictment out of California — Brockman is accused of tax fraud; money laundering, wire fraud, evasion, and securities fraud (that means in lesser terms defrauding the folks who invested in his company.). That company perhaps being Reynolds & Reynolds.
Money seems to turn people into criminals.
The indictment shows a pretty wild scheme of antics to evade detection by the IRS. An encrypted e-mail system; money managers using fake identities attending money laundering conferences (tap your screen once if you didn’t know the was a thing — don’t feel bad we didn’t either), and a super yacht called Turmoil.
Like most criminals — Brockman’s downfall quite literally came at his own accord.
