Former Cisco VP Now A Fugitive
from the on-the-lam dept
The former Cisco VP that we wrote about last year, who's "thinking outside the box" was actually a plan to rob Cisco blind has apparently disappeared and is considered a fugitive. His lawyers say they were close to working out a deal to settle the case, when he didn't show up for his scheduled court case. Prosecutors are now trying to seize his expensive house and take his $5 million in bail. Give it a few years, and during the next startup boom, he'll probably show up running one of these companies.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
