[edit] Autocart

Al Jervinsky, "President of AutoCart Logistics and Licensing, LLC" (see [http://www.autotram.biz/contact.htm Autotram website, accessed June 16, 2007), was, in a December 2004 press release, "Systems Sales Manager, FKI Logistex Automation Division". But his Ohio address (10 Ridgecreek Trail) is the same in both, and Google Maps shows that it's a residential address, something pretty odd for a press release.

First known press release, December 2004; lists only one type - "Supercenter", opening December 2006

[edit] Charles Wyly

(Did article on Sam Wyly)

Charles and Sam Wyly, who the Center for Public Integrity found in 2000 were the ninth-largest contributors to President Bush.

Mr. Johnson and Mr. Saban, who are portrayed as victims in the report, are scheduled to testify today before the Senate Permanent Investigations subcommittee. They are expected to say that professional advisers assured them their deals to avoid taxes were more likely lawful than not. The Wyly brothers told the committee that they would invoke their Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and thus were not called to testify. The report characterizes them as active participants in tax schemes. The report also dissects deals by the Wyly brothers of Texas, showing how they made at least $190 million through stock option exercises offshore but had yet to pay taxes on most of the money. They then borrowed against their offshore accounts to buy jewelry, pay for portraits of family members, buy homes and operate properties named Rosemary’s Circle R Ranch, LL Ranch, Stargate Horse Farm, Cottonwood Galleries and 36 Malibu Colony. William Brewer, a Dallas lawyer for the Wylys, said that "The Wylys believe they have paid all taxes due." He also said "And in any event, as the report makes clear, the Wylys were counseled by an armada of lawyers, brokers, financial professionals and offshore service providers to ensure that they were at all times fully meeting their obligations."
