Was Charles Schwab obsessed over a lost lover? Did he cross legal lines in a jealous pursuit?
(SALEM, Ore.) - The story of one Oregon man's involvement with a former lover of financial mogul Charles Schwab is a sordid tale of money, obsession, and questionable deeds from friends in the highest places.
In this video I interview Wayne Pierce, a retired IBM employee who became involved with a woman who had previously dated Schwab. Pierce says his life was invaded in a number of ways by Schwab and his people, and it all revolved around Schwab's obsession with the woman he attempted to have a relationship with.
To say Schwab is connected to power, is an understatement. The question is, how far are those in power willing to go when wielding their way through life? How much is a government willing to risk in backing up a heartbroken, rogue billionaire? And exactly how much are American taxpayers willing to put up with?
As the man who brought American low cost stock trading, Schwab amassed an amazing fortune and it is a fact that riches equate to power. Pierce alleges that Charles Schwab is guilty of a number of crimes, and that list could have ties to insider trading.
Pierce says he contacted both law enforcement and his political representatives, then he wrote to the New York Stock Exchange and he wrote to the board members of the Charles Schwab Corporation.
Though there was some legal jockeying by Schwab's attorneys, and the FBI did eventually become involved, his case did not go forward as Pierce hoped or imagined it would.
In this video interview Wayne Pierce walks through the story and explains the various things he says he had to put up with, in order to spend time around Schwab's former female interest.
