Hundley had recently joined Strauss's firm, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld. | 1925-08-16 | 2006-06-11 | Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA |
William Hundley was a former Chief of the Department of Justice's Organized Crime and Racketeering Section. He was retained by Music Corporation of America to plead its case to top Department of Justice officials after Marvin Rudnick "opened fire" on Music Corporation of America with a press release detailing payments to Sal Pisello's company, Consultants for World Records, which was shared with New York City organized crime figures.1
Hundley had recently joined Strauss's firm, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld. He confirmed that he met with David Margolis, the strike force's chief, and Michael DeFeo, his deputy, to tell them that Music Corporation of America was willing to cooperate in any organized crime investigation. He also discussed the Pisello case with John Newcomer, the new head of the strike force in Los Angeles, and inquired about Music Corporation of America's status in the investigation.1
Marvin Rudnick pointed out that Hundley's picture was on the wall, along with Ronald Reagan and Edwin Meese's, in Margolis's office, which Margolis pointed to when he threatened Rudnick.1
