Some Samsung Execs May Face Prosecution

An AP newswire article by Matthew Fordahl, via SFGate.com, reports that:

Though Samsung has agreed to plead guilty to participating in a scheme to fix the price of computer memory chips, several executives — including the president of its U.S. semiconductor business — could still face prosecution.

Under the agreement struck in October between the Korea company and the U.S. Justice Department, seven people are excluded from any protection offered by the deal that also requires the world's largest maker of computer memory chips to pay a near-record $300 million fine.
