Description: Mr. Ruehle, You Are A Free Man - A Broadcom Saga by William J. Ruehle Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description In 2006 a storm hit the corporate world as companies were alleged to have "backdated" stock options to unfairly benefit their executives. Under an obscure accounting guideline this resulted in the companies financial statements being inaccurate and therefore "fraudulently misleading" to investors. In this very personal story I will describe how I became a target of federal prosecutors because of my role as CFO of Broadcom Corporation. Using courtroom testimony I will demonstrate how overzealous prosecutors intimidated innocent current and former Broadcom employees into providing statements and testimony that was favorable to the prosecutors version of events. Using transcripts from my trial I will take the reader through the unprecedented twists and turns that left the most experienced attorneys in amazement. The story has a happy ending. The wise and courageous judge in the case, the Honorable Cormac J. Carney, issued a ruling before the case was to go to the jury. He said, "To submit this case to the jury would make a mockery of Mr. Ruehles constitutional right to compulsory process and a fair trial." He then turned to me and said, "Mr. Ruehle, you are a free man." Author Biography A graduate of Allegheny College and Harvard Business School, Bill Ruehle has spent most of his career in the high tech industry in Silicon Valley and in Southern California. The highlights of his career were his Chief Financial Officer (CFO) roles at SynOptics/Bay Networks and at Broadcom. He joined both companies when they were small privately-owned entities and helped guide both to public companies with multi-billion dollar revenue levels and market cap.
