Rubashkin trial opens with two defense views of Agriprocessors manager
Prosecutors portray Sholom Rubashkin as a schemer who funneled funds through a school and kosher grocery to dodge loan payments while a defense attorney portrays him as a novice swept into financial dealings he did not understand. The case centers on 91 fraud related charges against Rubashkin, linked to the Postville plant and a $28 million revolving loan later pushed to $35 million.
