Steve: A month ago I was CEO of my own pharmaceutical company. Today, I’m the victim of a hostile corporate takeover which has left that company in the hands of individuals whom I believe are putting quick profits ahead of building a viable company which can bring a valuable product to market. After receiving legal counsel concerning the “appearance of fraud” by CSI board members, I had no choice but to tender my resignation from the company I founded more than a year ago. Within hours of my resignation, CSI Chief Operating Officer Ray Carr, VP of Research & Development Mary Ruwart, and Director of Communications Lee Wrights, also resigned.
