Antitrust lawyer Keila Ravelo and her husband are accused of setting up fake vendors and filing fake invoices for legal services. Her husband, Melvin Feliz, has pleaded guilty of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and tax evasion. Ms Ravelo is free on US$500,000 bail, with court records showing she is in plea negotiation. Weeks before her arrest, she was named one of “100 Women Worth Watching” by a diversity publication.
Largest antitrust settlement threatened
Other alleged actions by Ms Ravelo could destroy the largest antitrust settlement in history – a US$6bn pact between MasterCard, Visa and millions of merchants. Her name has appeared in a series of court documents in which objectors to the Visa-MasterCard pact are attempting to halt it on the grounds that she had received confidential information from an opposing lawyer in the case.
