Apple’s ex-CFO, after settling stock option claims against him with the SEC, released a statement today that points a big fat finger at Steve Jobs. This is getting interesting.

Fred was told by Steve Jobs in late January 2001 that Mr. Jobs had the agreement of the Board of Directors for the Executive Team grant on January 2, 2001. At the time Mr. Jobs provided Fred this assurance, Fred cautioned Mr. Jobs that the Executive Team grant would have to be priced based on the date of the actual Board agreement or there could be an accounting charge. He further advised Mr. Jobs that the Board would have to confirm its prior approval in a legally satisfactory method. He was told by Mr. Jobs that the Board had given its prior approval and the Board would verify it. Fred relied on these statements by Mr. Jobs and from them concluded the grant was being properly handled.
 
I'm curious as to why he doesn't sue Jobs.
 
You know what happens when one assumes... :rolleyes:

How about taking some responsibility? No one wants to, so everyone points the finger
at someone else...
 
If jobs did do anything wrong, he will never be punished for it. There are hundreds of MAC f@nboy$ working at Apple that would gladly serve some prison time to save their corrupt leader.
 
Because he said it to a newspaper? That's evidence now?
Why don't you read the title at the top of the linked page:

Attorney for Fred Anderson Issues Statement Regarding Settlement of Claims with the SEC

Everything in the statement was from the conclusion of the trial the ex-CFO just came out of. This is what I meant by public record.
