F. Scott Brown knew things were not perfect when he took over the European division of Morgan AM&T. He didn't let that deter him. Their downward spiral needed to be fixed and he knew he was the man for the job. After successfully steering the company back in the black, he stepped down as CEO and president at the end of 2000. Eight months later, an FBI agent showed up at his house in Central Florida with a subpoena. His life has not been the same since. Brown faced corruption and personal betrayal, and a shockingly wide-ranged cover-up that ultimately would lead to incarceration. Many false accusations with heart-wrenching moments of frustration continued for more than three years. Finally, despite his innocence, he entered an "excruciating guilty plea." Brown's fight for justice was not over. He would discover how God's revelations would bring him proof of his innocence. Now he uses his experience to help others.

The longstanding condemnation under the US Sherman Act of 1890 has been taken up (although in a rather different form) during the last thirty years in the EC/EU and in European national jurisdictions in particular, but also in a range of countries outside North America and Europe. Legal control has not only extended geographically but has intensified, as a number of jurisdictions have moved beyond administrative regulation and penalties t...
