Charges Hit Broadcom Co-Founder At Broadband Speed

Posted by Slobokan @ 12:44 pm · 162 words · print

Well now… This explains why my Broadcom modem used to act up and get all spacy at times. And people told me it was my IRQ settings. I should have known there was a deeper reason for its spastic behavior.

Broadcom Corp. co-founder Henry T. Nicholas III was indicted on federal narcotics charges that include allegations he slipped ecstasy into the drinks of business associates, maintained a drug warehouse and concealed his illegal conduct with bribes and death threats.

In a pair of indictments unsealed Thursday, the billionaire also is accused of committing conspiracy, securities fraud and other violations while he led the Irvine-based computer chip company.

What do you mean my modem issue is not related to this story? Of course it isn’t. Were you not paying attention? Wait. Did someone put something in my drink? Should I look into getting a life insurance quote?
