Ex aide Maheu details Hughes dealings and excesses
Ex aide Maheu describes Howard Hughes as eccentric and ruthless, citing $22.4 million spent to buy the Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas, raids on a Long Beach beauty pageant, and the Flying Boat contract matters. He portrays Hughes as meddlesome, paranoid, and determined to control assets from the Desert Inn on the ninth floor, while denying a fair deal to a Pageant and funding government fallout work. The testimony appears in a federal court filing in the case Maheu vs Hughes filed in Los Angeles, with deposition remarks from Maheu about Hughes’s management style and business ethics.
