From Frenchcuffs to Handcuffs: A Former CEO's Survival Advice For Executives, Business Owners, and Politicians Facing Federal Prosecution (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780615775234)

"Ignore this book at your family's peril," said Gerald Sullivan, MPA and former CPA, CPC. Surely Mr. Sullivan knows what he's talking about. After all, he and his family were decimated when he and his wife found themselves charged with a white-collar crime and forced to accept plea agreements for crimes they did not commit. Of course, Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan could have declared their innocence and demanded a trial. But had they lost the trial, they each would have faced twenty years in federal prison. Who in their right mind would take such a risk, especially when you discover that federal prosecutors enjoy an average 92% conviction rate-and have now for the past two decades? As a result, the Sullivan's were forced to accept plea agreements that sent Mrs. Sullivan to prison for four years, and Mr. Sullivan to prison for six years or consider Mr. Jeremy Levine, President and Founder of JSL Construction, Inc., who said, "Had I read just half of the book: From French Cuffs To Handcuffs, my family and I would have saved $25,000 in unnecessary prison consulting fees that resulted in absolutely no net benefit to me when I was sentenced to federal prison for filing a false income tax return. Think this couldn't happen to you? Well, if you wear a white collar, think again. If you're an executive, a politician, or a business owner being questioned, audited, or investigated by any state or federal agency, chances are, like the Sullivan's and the Levine's, you're on your way. Do you realize that simple things you routinely do in your office or business can be a crime without you realizing it? That's the case with countless corporate executives, business owners, and career politicians in America today. The Sullivan's, who were upstanding citizens and seasoned professionals, never saw it coming. In fact, they had not a clue they were committing a federal crime when simply advising a client on how to shelter passive income against double taxation. From French Cuffs to Handcuffs is a startling eye-opener that explains why 1-in-100 citizens are behind bars in America today, according to the Pew Research Center. A former CEO's experience before, during, and after serving 25 years in federal prison can keep you out of harm's way, or minimize the impact should you find yourself subject to a federal investigation that will, no doubt, become a federal indictment. Our aim is to opens your eyes to the ever-increasing chances of how unsuspecting professionals like you can find yourself in the crosshairs of one of 4500 federal criminal codes that can radically change your life forever.
