The Globe drops a mini-bombshell toward the beginning of its Spotlight story on the financial dealings of Steward Healthcare chief executive Ralph de la Torre: A federal grand jury is now investigating some of his more questionable financial moves, including possible self-dealings between Steward and side firms owned by de la Torre. From the Globe: “The grand jury has homed in on the health care company’s financial dealings, including executive compensation, travel, and spending, said one person who was briefed on the matter.”
Not sure why the latest fed probe wasn’t reported in a separate article by the Globe. No matter. It’s a good story about a new dimension of de la Torre’s greed. … Fyi: The probe is separate from a previously disclosed fed investigation into Steward’s international business, the Globe reports.
