Last week, former Apple employee Paul Devine was arrested and charged with selling secrets to Asian suppliers in exchange for over $2 million in kickbacks.
Devine, one of Apple's global supply managers, was charged "with offenses that include wire fraud, money laundering and unlawful monetary transactions," which began in 2006.
This week, Devine has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Prosecutors say Devine's email accounts clearly show him "orchestrating" deposits from the Asian suppliers.
Furthermore, Apple has filed a civil racketeering lawsuit against Devine.
Devine worked for Apple from 2005 until this year. Apple, in their suit, allege that Devine "colllected commissions" for years from at least six Asian supplier in exchange for confidential information that helped them to secure deals.
