    Anyone read the article ... IT worker? It appears he was a little more than just a worker. He was funneling invoices through a dummy company.

    Swift probably caught on to it, but it takes time to get law enforcement involved and build the case. They may have been able to shut it down early, but they let it run to nail this guy hard.

    What's the old adage? Don't steal, the government hates competition.

    I would bet the farm this showed up as a result of the acquisition. I will almost bet some Knight Auditors were going through the books and discovered it. I don't have proof of it, but every company I have been with has audited everything from the paper clips to the gold bullion's in the safe when we acquired a company, as well as any contracts and what the contracts are for.

    For the most part knight took over swift.
    Even tho swift was the bigger. One of the Knights have taken over the management of swift. Until they (knight management) finds a replacement. The stock is staying knight.

    It just show how much mis management was at swift.

    Two wrongs do not make a right. This guy, if found guilty, needs to do prison time and have a felony record for the rest of his life.

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    amazing.

    Swift took me to court over my CDL student loan.
    Yet this 'kid' steals over 1.6 Million dollars.

    KARMA.
    Swift will never get that money back by the way.
