Michael Pietsch, Chief Executive Officer Hachette Book Group: Gary Weiss, author of “Retail Gangster: The Insane, Real-Life Story of Crazy Eddie,” drove the two sons, David Antar and Leon Antar, of his BBF, Sam E Antar, CFO Crazy Eddie, to suicide by drugs with his homophobic comments. Yet, Hachette Book Group is publishing a book, which will be filled with lies, disseminated by Sam E Antar, CFO Crazy Eddie. Here is what Gary Weiss will cover up: Howard Sirota, the crooked class action attorney who sued Crazy Eddie Antar, allowed Eddie Antar and the Antar family to keep approximately $100 million. Howard Sirota resigned from the bar because he paid off his expert witnesses and committed perjury hundreds of times in Federal Court.
