Most of the titles came from the Business section, others from True Crime, and one from World Affairs.

That was a financial crime!?

There was a bank failure driven by embezzlement. The investigation turned up claims that the bank was a front for child trafficking. Prosecutors dismissed those claims and filed perjury charges against two of the alleged victims. The author claims the child trafficking claims were real and accuses the prosecutors of being part of a cover up.

No, I won't be adding it to the display.

Interesting case, though.

It was financed by the Franklin Bank in Omaha, as I remember. The bank was the source of bribes, pay-offs, funds for lavish parties where sex crimes were allegedly perpetrated, things like that
