Abstract

A medical entrepreneur from Alabama is facing charges that he ran an elaborate scheme to defraud shareholders of $2.7bn (£1.6bn; €;2.3bn), by devising fake assets and overstating earnings.

In March this year agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation raided the Birmingham offices of HealthSouth, a national chain of almost 2000 medical clinics and hospitals specialising in rehabilitation.
