Beyond claims that he failed to report $2 billion of income, Brockman is accused of using a foreign company he secretly controlled to buy secondary debt in his own software firm, Reynolds & Reynolds, at a deep discount in 2009. Prosecutors claim that assets tied to the debt fraud are subject to forfeiture, including a fishing lodge he developed on the Frying Pan River, according to U.S. court filings in March.
