Palm Beach Escorts: Miami SWAT Buying Body Armor from Company Linked to Fraud, Prostitution
July 28th, 2010 by palmbeachhobbyistMiami SWAT Buying Body Armor From Company Linked to Fraud, Prostitution
In the chaos that followed the attacks of September 11, 2001, David H. Brooks got rich. He transformed a small, struggling company called DHB Industries into one of the biggest body armor manufacturers in the nation, supplying American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Stock prices soared from $2 to $20.
But as business boomed, so did expenses: luxury cars, prostitutes for his employees, plastic surgery for his wife, even a $100,000 bejeweled belt buckle befitting Tony Stark himself — at least according to prosecutors in New York, where Brooks is on trial for fraud.
Now Brooks’s old company, renamed Point Blank Solutions, has moved to Pompano Beach. And despite filing for bankruptcy and questions over the quality of its products, Point Blank is selling body armor to Miami’s SWAT team.
