From: john on 27 Feb 2010 01:52 Rep. Ed Towns, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said the documents subpoenaed from ex-Toyota lawyer Dimitrios Biller "indicate Toyota deliberately withheld records that it was legally required to produce." Biller also accuses Toyota of trying to hide "evidence of safety defects from consumers and regulators, and fostered a culture of 'hypocrisy and deceit,'â" Towns said. The documents suggest Toyota entered into multimillion-dollar settlements in civil cases when it feared the plaintiff's lawyers were getting close to discovering the existence of the "Books of Knowledge."

'we will investigate all allegations of corporate manslaughter thoroughly' said chairman of the corporate palm greasing committee, rep richard pocketliner, d-mi, 'and the sheeple can be assured that we will find firestone guilty'. all nhtsa statistical databases have since been re-written to carefully 'adjust' any 'misgathered' information on death rates that might implicate detroit's finest, and lawyers for bereaved families are being safely audited by the irs to ensure they get the message about not pursuing cases that might uncover any inconvenient corporate memoranda."
