Federal prosecutor Matthew T. Kirsch prosecuted and convicted six information technology executives of the IRP Solutions Corporation on allegations that they were involved in a two-and-a-half-year scheme to induce staffing companies into paying employees they outsourced to IRP. IRP Solutions developed CILC (pronounced "silk") criminal investigations software, and according to court documents, the Department of Homeland Security requested and received a quote for over $100 million dollars for CILC. "Although the primary charge was that the defendants misrepresented their success and prospects to certain staffing companies, the case was presented to the jury on the basis that their software was a phony and a scam," says former federal appeals Judge H. Lee Sarokin, and that "defies reality." Sarokin characterizes the case as "strange" and questions why Kirsch disregarded numerous facts that indicate the executives could not possibly have been involved in criminal activity. One of which was why the IRP executives, in the middle of a criminal scheme as alleged by Kirsch, contacted the head of the Denver division of the FBI to recruit federal agents to come work for their company. "Criminals avoid law enforcement at all costs, not recruit them to come work for them," says Lisa Stewart of A Just Cause.Congresswoman Karen Bass and Congressman Tom Marino Give an Exclusive Interview on Foster Youth Shadow Program Event on Spotlight on Capitol Hill
