Colossal Fraud Case Hits Texas Based Director Group
The United States circuit court hears allegations of the River Irrigation company led by John G Beatty of Texas. The suit accuses Beatty and a roster of New York and California directors of using fictitious land titles and stock transfers to obtain 7.5 million dollars by selling 60 thousand shares against a worthless 1.4 million acre tract on the Altar river, with assets under 40 thousand. The board allegedly acted as Beatty’s instruments, appointing him manager and granting inflated salaries, while failing to verify title or land value. The case also details a pattern of eroding company assets and questionable organizational changes.
