UNITED STATES OF AMERICA v. GATES

FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT, WESTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA

Dr. Gates was the vice president of Edinboro University, Edinboro, Pa. The United States Department of Human Services was giving large sums of money to Edinboro University for "Special Projects." Gates was indicted for embezzling those funds and using them for personal use. The Federal indictment included multiple counts of embezzlement, filing false statements with the Department of Human Services and various other violations of law. 

With the power of the entire United States government against him, Attorney Ambrose persevered and was able to get an acquittal on all counts in this difficult white collar crime case.
