A single report from Above the Law describes the case of a consummate Washington insider who advised four presidents and was later indicted at the age of 85. The article's headline and summary attribute his undoing to a "rogue bank," though the excerpt provides no further details about the bank's identity or the specific charges.
Because the source is limited to a headline and one-sentence description, the full circumstances of the indictment remain unclear. The report does not name the attorney, the presidents he served, or the nature of the alleged misconduct. What is clear is that a long career at the highest levels of government ended in a criminal indictment late in life.
The article, published on Above the Law, frames the story as a cautionary tale about how even the most connected insiders can be brought down by institutional failures. Without additional reporting, readers are left with only the broad outline: four presidents, one rogue bank, and an indictment at 85.
