From Mike Brunker, MSNBC.com
Jared Wheat summons the high dudgeon of a wronged man as he lists his grievances against federal prosecutors. They have distorted the truth, smeared his reputation and harmed his thriving dietary supplement business, he says, in an effort to send him to prison for allegedly manufacturing generic prescription drugs and selling them over the Internet.
“I’ve just gotten the rough end of the stick all around,” Wheat told msnbc.com, sitting at the head of a conference table piled with pill bottles in the headquarters of Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals, the supplement company he founded in 1994. “… If you have a fight, you want a fair fight. You don’t want all this other stuff … trying to disprove negatives and fight things that simply are not true.
