Bumble bee tuna ceo gets 3 years in the can
Just saw this on line. Did anybody ever get your rebate check because of the price fixing? This was a few years ago.

I read the write up on this on the DOJ site after your initial post. It sounds like the 3-4 largest players in the Tuna field were all involved in this. Bumble Bee paid a $25 million fine, Starkist paid a $100 million fine. The Bumble Bee CEO went to Prison because he organized the whole shebang. The other three testified against him.
As the DOJ pointed out, price fixing an essential commodity, like our Food, will not be tolerated.
Glad they all got caught.

It's going to take a Can opener, (since he is in the Can.) to Spring him. (Jail break.)
I hope he is not too smelly, when he comes out.

I received like 30 dollars a long time ago from them. 0 -
The whole school of fish monger's were looking for a SUCKER to take their blame away.
Promises of catch and release deflected off the scales of justice when the Bumble Bee guy claimed he could tune a piano but was unable to tune a fish!!0 -
I can take any more of this.
