One night in early November, 1992, a high-ranking ADM executive named Mark Whitacre did something extraordinary when he confessed to an FBI agent that ADM executives-including Whitacre himself-had routinely met with competitors to fix the price of lysine, a food additive. It was initially Whitacre's wife who forced Whitacre to become a whistleblower by threatening to go to the FBI herself if he would not have informed the authorities of ADMs illegal price-fixing activities. That meeting marked the first time that a participant in a price fixing cartel had ever voluntarily tipped off law-enforcement officials about a scheme & that's only half the story.Trailer HERE
