Make That Sixteen . . .

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act researcher Cody Worthington responded to our post Their Days Are Numbered. To our list of thirteen people waiting to be sentenced for violating or conspiring to violate the FCPA, he suggested we add three more. Here they are:

Joshua Cantor, the president of American Bank Note Holographics. He pleaded guilty in 2001 to a four-count indictment charging him with conspiracy to defraud the U.S., a books-and-records violation, making false statements to auditors, and conspiracy to violate the FCPA. The charges arose from bribes paid on behalf of American Bank Note in Saudi Arabia. Cantor wasn't sentenced as scheduled in 2003. According to his court docket (available here), no new sentencing date has been fixed. Another oddity: despite pleading guilty to four felonies and being out on bail, Cantor travels a lot. Since 2003, he's obtained court approval for trips to Puerto Rico and Israel (twice each), Brazil, Canada, the British Virgin Islands, Spain, the Dominican Republic and Barbados.

Clayton Lewis was a partner in Omega Advisors, Inc., a hedge fund that invested about $126 million in Viktor Kozeny’s Azeri privatization scheme. In an enforcement action against Lewis in 2004, the government said he knew Kozeny planned to bribe Azeri officials but went ahead with Omega's investment anyway. Lewis pleaded guilty in 2005 to violating and conspiring to violate the FCPA. He appeared as a cooperating witness for the government in Frederic Bourke's trial. His sentencing was deferred for the trial and hasn't been rescheduled.

Thomas Farrell worked for Viktor Kozeny in Russia. The American pleaded guilty in 2003 to violating and conspiring to violate the FCPA. Like Lewis, he testified against Bourke. His sentencing was also deferred for Bourke's trial and hasn't been rescheduled.
