: Legal Pad | LAAcquittals and guilty pleas in Ralphs record falsifying case
By Richard Binder
A former vice president of the parent company of Ralphs supermarkets and two ex-employees of the chain were acquitted Monday in Los Angeles federal court of conspiring to secretly hire locked-out union workers and falsify records during a grocery strike.
Acquitted Monday were Patrick McGowan, a former Ralphs regional vice president, and Scott Drew and Karen Montoya, who were zone managers at the supermarket company.
The three were among those charged last September in a 23-count federal indictment alleging that they committed labor fraud by directing subordinates to rehire hundreds of locked-out union employees under false names and false Social Security numbers to hide the activity from unions and the federal government during the 2003-04 Southern California grocery strike.
Two others named in the indictment have since pleaded guilty.
