Atlantic Coast Carriers — "a tiny trucking company in Hazlehurst, Ga." — is spearheading a class-action lawsuit against Browns owner Jimmy Haslam's embattled truck-stop company Pilot Flying J.
The suit alleges Pilot Flying J — which is the subject of an intense federal probe — has "benefited from inaccurate rebate procedures for certain clients," and "derived funds from a pattern of racketeering activity." The accusations are in line with the FBI's allegations, and paint an increasingly troubling picture for the Browns' neophyte owner. Despite Haslam's declarations of innocence, the NFL has a major problem on its hands.
