Former Glock Lawyer Faces Charges of Theft, Racketeering

February 9, 2010

The three-decade legal career of a former federal prosecutor, Marine Corps Reserve investigator and one-time candidate for Georgia attorney general has turned into a nightmare. James R. Harper III stands accused of racketeering and theft from his former client, international gun maker Glock Inc. A grand jury has charged Harper and two others with conspiring to take $3 million of the company's money while they worked on an investigation of other executives accused of stealing from Glock.
