Blind Item #8 - Reader Blind

A new biography of this person who has held this A++ position on two separate occasions including right now has a biography coming out which confirms the details of a story that has long been rumored.

When he was a young man, the person's close family member was put on trial along with 13 other young men for the week long rape and imprisonment of two young girls.  Another close family member held an A+ position where they lived. He was in the courtroom every day staring down the jury and the judge. At the end of the trial, 12 out of the 13 men were found guilty. The one who wasn't? The close family member.   

Of course strings were pulled. Two things to consider - 1.) The regular bodyguards assigned to the close family member couldn't confirm an alibi for him that week 2.) Some of the other young men as well as the two victims confirmed his attendance.

When the biographer confronted the person during an interview for the book, the person laughed and said the two girls made the whole thing up.
