Swiss banking whistleblower (
swisstleblower?), Rudolph Elmer who was down with
Wikileaks before the site was ever mentioned outside of the business page,
has finally made his way to trial.
Elmer, as you may recall has admitted responsibility for passing along Julius Baer Bank documents to the radical transparency site back in 2008.
Elmer's motive? Revenge. The result? Exposure of corruption and tax evasion along with the possible suicide of Baer CEO,
Alex Widmer.
