The story of Mr. Devine’s arrest broke over the weekend, with Apple claiming that he accepted more than one million dollars over the course of the last few years in exchange for providing advanced product information that Apple’s suppliers then used to in contract negotiations.
Mr. Devine allegedly used several on-shore and off-shore bank accounts, including accounts set up in his wife’s name, to funnel the money for use by both him and a Singapore-based co-conspirator who helped arrange the deals.
