Episode description
This week, Anthony talks with executive vice president, secretary, and a trustee of the Milken Family Foundation Richard V. Sandler about his book Witness to a Prosecution: The Myth of Michael Milken.
Why did Michael Milken accept a plea deal? As Mike’s personal attorney since 1983, Richard tells us what really happened during that famous prosecution based on the facts. He discusses how Michael was viewed as a threat to finance, and Rudy Giuliani’s personal ambitions which led to his aggressive pursual of the Milken’s. He then moves on to Mike’s imprisonment, the aftermath and his later, much-deserved pardoning from President Trump.
