Recently, the members of the Board of Directors of Continental

interviewed several employees, and arrested Charles Prater.
The Board of Continental applauds the professionalism and
dedication of the agents who participated in this activity,
and pledges its complete cooperation with the ongoing federal
investigation. The Board of Directors of Continental has done,
