CVS Stock Plummets as Executives Face Perjury Charges

For Immediate Release

NEW YORK/EWORLDWIRE/June 30, 2010 --- CVS Pharmacy CEO Thomas Ryan and COO Larry Merlo face a deposition in the "shopping while Black" lawsuit filed by Entertainment mogul Jerome Almon. The deposition represents a dangerous turn of events for the scandal-plagued company.

According to Almon, documents to be posted on the Web site CVSPerjury.com (http://www.cvsperjury.com) next week show that CVS Pharmacy executives repeatedly made false statements to the Michigan Civil Rights Department (MCRD) concerning an the incident with Almon that led to his lawsuit. The documents, many from CVS headquarters, reveal a massive attempt to cover up the Almon incident by destroying evidence and other means. The executives face criminal charges in Michigan if the perjury is confirmed.

Prominent politicians who have been sent to prison or are on trial for perjury in the state include former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, Judge Mary Waterstone, and a host of prosecutors and police detectives. Ironically, Almon has become the star witness in the Judge Waterstone case, and he was recently contacted by the Michigan Supreme Court regarding the case.

CVS executives attempted to block the information contained in the MCRD file, as Almon predicted that the official policy of CVS Pharmacy of targeting African Americans would lead to a tragedy sooner than later.

In May, Anthony Kyser was strangled to death on-camera in front of a police officer by a Chicago CVS store manager over allegations he stole $5 worth of toothpaste and crayons.

In a bizarre twist, CVS sent Almon a written apology for the killing of Kyser. Almon was contacted by Chicago Congressman Bobby Rush to address the issue and the numerous incidents of "shopping while Black" leading to "killed while shopping."

Almon will also post the communications between the Congressman and himself on CVSPerjury.com (http://www.cvsperjury.com).

Almon has filed a complaint with the FTC and is filing a complaint with the U.S. Civil Rights Commission early next week. "Bottom line is you have a company that considers its customers being killed by its employees as the normal price of doing business," says Almon. Since Almon filed his lawsuit, CVS has seen its stock drop by over 25 percent, representing a $12.5 billion drop in the stock and company's value.

Walgreen's also temporarily cut a joint venture with the scandal-plagued corporation, causing another severe dip in CVS' bottom line.

Disastrous moves in May and June, accompanied by the Kyser homicide and with dozens of other lawsuits looming, CVS stock faces even more battering in July as the Almon's documentation is released. The documentation is sure to spur numerous other lawsuits and investigations as detailed at CureCVS.org (http://www.curecvs.org).
