Carter purchases tied to large payments in contractor cases
In Savannah on February 7, prosecutors presented accounts bearing Westcott’s name but tied to Carter’s large stock buys. The government contends Westcott held the securities as Carter’s funds, while the defense argues the assets were Carter’s loans or bonuses. Witnesses traced transfers and deposits from Reed and Flagg as Carter’s funds moved to buy bonds and stock after big contractor payments, with firm records showing Carter’s purchases through Westcott’s accounts.
