A Manhattan jury has found former Dewey & LeBoeuf chief financial officer (CFO) Joel Sanders guilty of altering the US firm’s accounts to cover up its shaky financials ahead of its demise.
The trial, which began in May 2015, came to an end this week when a jury of eight women and four men found Sanders guilty of scheme to defraud, securities fraud and conspiracy. Former executive director Stephen DiCarmine was cleared of the same charges.
