Here's an update on a new article I published today on Triple Pundit on lat week's raid on Gibson Guitars, the second one in two years, following suspicions the company violated the Lacey Act.
The article is entitled "Is Gibson Guitars Unfairly Bullied or Have They Really Screwed Up… Again?". Here's the first paragraph of the article:
Last week, for the second time in two years, federal agents raided the facilities of Gibson Guitars, probably the most well-known guitar maker around the world. Although the two raids are the result of different cases, the accusations then and now are similar – violations of the Lacey Act, a law requiring that all wood products and plants imported into the U.S. come from legal sources.
