How has he been running an "extortion racket"? The only evidence to that is from someone that Chevron themselves bribed.
To all of the reading I've done on the subject the Chapo telling of the story is accurate. It's just some previously reputable sources that fail to mention that the only account or Donzigers wrong-doing is by someone paid 12 000$ a month by Chevron and reliant on Chevron's goodwill to say in the USA, that also recanted his account later. There is no credible evidence of extortion from Donziger, in account that portrays it as such is either misinformed or naive.
