Background for Halliburton Asbestos liabilities for newbies like me.

In 2004, Halliburton fired the chairman of KBR, Albert Jack Stanley, after discovering he violated the company's "code of business conduct" by accepting "improper personal benefits" related to the Nigeria contract. In other words, $5 million of the bribe money was found in Stanley's personal bank account in Switzerland. The Swiss government later shut down Halliburton's bank accounts which French investigators believe were used to finance the bribes.

Stanley was personally hired by Cheney, who in 1999 was quoted as saying, "We took Jack Stanley … to head up the organization and that has helped tremendously." <snip>

Is this how Stanley goofed? ie He kept some of the bribe money for his self and put in a Swiss bank account where bank secrecy laws aren't strict.?
