Winston & Strawn Partner Rich Weber was featured in an episode of the BBC podcast Powerplay: The House of Sepp Blatter, where he spoke about the role of the IRS, his former agency, in the 2015 FIFA corruption case. In May 2015, the FBI and IRS conducted a raid to arrest FIFA officials on charges of racketeering, bribery, wire fraud, and money laundering conspiracies following a four-year investigation.
In the episode, Rich provided insights into the days leading up to and following the raid, as well as the significance of the investigation.
