  • Inside the hunt for the masterminds of a double-brokering scheme

    Inside the hunt for the masterminds of a double-brokering scheme
    Jul 16 2021
    Hundreds of trucking companies have been allegedly defrauded in an elaborate scheme utilizing a controversial practice called double-brokering. After months of investigating, co-host Clarissa Hawes got a tip that led to a series of bizarre phone calls with the man who owned a freight brokerage at the center of the operation. He told her: “You've got a lot of angry people … trying to find out who is trying to find them, who is trying to hurt their kids, their families.”  Our latest episode wades into Hawes' investigation into a network of companies in Southern California connected to the scheme, and her efforts to find the people responsible for it. It led her to a transportation executive named Steve Avetyan, who once boasted of handing out Rolex watches — he called them “Rollies” —  as bonuses to his best sales staff. Avetyan claimed to be someone else when Hawes first called him. He eventually admitted to being Avetyan, but denied any involvement in the double-brokering network.  Co-host and producer Nate Tabak joines Hawes for the episode.

  • Pilot fuel rebate scandal spurs unusual legal fight over racism

    Pilot fuel rebate scandal spurs unusual legal fight over racism
    Jun 7 2021
    In April 2013, agents from the FBI and IRS raided the Knoxville headquarters of the largest truck stop chain in the United States: Pilot Flying J. It was part of a massive investigation into a fuel rebate scam. In all, fourteen former Pilot employees pleaded guilty for their roles in what was known as “jacking the discount.” But eight years later, the story is far from over as the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals overturns the convictions of former Pilot president Mark Hazelwood and two of his staffers, who are still fighting to clear their names.  They allege they were victims of reverse racism. Co-host Clarissa Hawes delves into the latest developments as Hazelwood and two members of his team prepare for a second trial in the fuel rebate scam that rocked the truck stop dynasty. Allegations of racism – and reverse racism – are looming large in the case to this day.  Co-host and producer Nate Tabak joins Hawes for the episode.
