Who is Robert Friedland???

I have been told that he has been one of the greatest fraudsters of the past century, but have not yet seen much information on the net. If anyone knows about any wrongdoings he has ever committed as regards tax evasion, wrongful deceits, or virtually anything he has done, please post them on the net. If you think all his fortune was honestly made, please also feel free to contribute. Tnx for your care...
