INDICTED

How the DOJ Destroys Innocent Lives

On September 10, 2021, the United States Department of Justice unsealed Case No. 3:21-00191. This was not a pursuit of justice; it was the destruction of innocent lives: a 75-year-old grandfather and his son.

Indicted reveals how the DOJ destroys innocent lives. Using primary documents, court transcripts, and personal narrative, Anthony F. Gigliotti exposes how the government criminalized a business dispute just days before the statute of limitations expired. This is the documented story of prosecutorial overreach against an industry leader with a 100% customer satisfaction rate.

This is not a work of fiction. These are real documents. This was a real arrest. These are real consequences.

Why This Story Matters

This isn’t just Anthony’s story, it is a warning to every business owner and citizen in America.

Why Anthony Wrote This Book

Anthony did not write Indicted to seek pity; he wrote it to serve as a whistleblower. After seeing his 50-year reputation dismantled by a single press release, he realized that the “rules” he had lived by no longer applied to those in power.

REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS

“The government took the company. They took the retirement. They couldn’t take the story.”

The Judicial Verdict "It’s taking me reading it about three times to figure out exactly what happened and to even contemplate that it somehow is a crime... It looks like on every level there is nothing."

Honorable Aleta A. Trauger, U.S. District Judge

Technical & Industry Praise "Admins should find all the options they need to... saving the maximum amount of power possible without inconveniencing users."

Logan G. Harbaugh, InfoWorld Reviewer

"A Warning to Every Entrepreneur" "As a CEO, this book is a chilling reminder of how quickly the government can turn a successful business contract into a criminal conspiracy. Anthony’s attention to detail and his refusal to back down is a masterclass in resilience."

Michael Rossi, Former Tech Executive & Business Consultant

"The Heart of an Immigrant Family" "Beyond the legal drama, Indicted is a beautiful tribute to the Gigliotti family legacy. It shows that while the government can seize your assets, they cannot seize your integrity or your history. A must-read for anyone who believes in the American Dream."

Sofia Moretti, Author and Italian-American Historian

"A Whistleblower for Justice Reform" "Gigliotti exposes the 'Trial Penalty' with surgical precision. He explains why 97% of people plead guilty, even when innocent. This book should be required reading in every law school in the country."

David J. Sterling, Civil Rights Advocate & Legal Reform Strategist

"The Courage of a Son" "The most moving part of this story is Alexander Gigliotti's refusal to lie to save himself. It speaks volumes about the man Anthony raised. This isn't just a book about law; it’s a book about the unbreakable bond between father and son."

Dr. James Thorne, Professional Ethics Educator
