WM is known for being an extremely tough, no nonsense client to its suppliers. Occassionally, a bastard slips through the cracks:
Clifford H. Pruitt Jr... has been sentenced to 16 months in prison for taking kickback payments....Pruitt will also be on three years� supervised probation and must pay $56,500 in restitution and a $100 special assessment.
Pruitt pleaded guilty May 28, 2004...
Pruitt used his position at Wal-Mart to obtain kickbacks from some suppliers to Wal-Mart in his region.
