Further investigation has revealed >> evidence detailing the path of the shipments out of the U.S. via the >> Ordnance Center located on Lafarge's premises on Marbelhead Pennisula. >> >> Under 18 U.S.C. 371, Lafarge is liable as a co-conspirator for the >> crimes committed by Kennematal and others in furtherance of the >> conspiracy. Since the shipments which were in violation of the Trade >> Embargo and the Trading with the Enemy Act occurred between August >> 1990 and March 1991, the First Lady's potential liability as a >> Director and corporate agen tof Lafarge. Moreover, serious conflict of >> interest issues are raised by the fact that Lafarge Corporation from >> 1990 to 1992, I am obviously concerned about the posssible correlation >> between OFAC's continued lack of action and the First Lady's potential >> liability as a Director and corporate agent of Lafarge.
