Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest running podcast in compliance. In this special episode, I visit with Eric Morehead, the Director of Advisory Services at LRN. We discuss the US Sentencing Guidelines on the 30th anniversary of their enactment and review the recent report on the history of the Sentencing Guidelines. Morehead, a former staff attorney at the US Sentencing Commissions takes a look at the numbers and considers the broader impact of the Sentencing Guidelines on compliance in the US and across the globe. Some of the highlights include:

·      What are  the US Sentencing Guidelines?

·      Why were the enacted?

·      How have they been supported by the DOJ and Courts?

·      What were the two amendments to the US Sentencing Guidelines?

·      What may be down the road for the US Sentencing Guidelines?
