I am from the East Lansing area and went to high school in Okemos. I know both communities very well. I've spent 30 years in developer and founder circles and never knew a single person from this company. The company's original headquarters is near my old high school in what was once a lumber yard. They were getting ready to move into an old department store that is owned by the city of East Lansing. This company was exceedingly good at getting money from both the local economic development people as well as the state. Told someone today that I felt like I was in the middle of a spy novel ;<). It is also the first time to my knowledge the little village of Okemos was ever mentioned in the old grey lady (aka NYT). Here's how local media covered the story: https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/2022/10/05/east-lansing-ceo-arrested-in-los-angeles-county-data-theft-probe/69541092007/ https://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/news/2022/10/05/ea...
