Three people were arrested in Georgia Wednesday and charged by federal prosecutors 1 with stealing trade secrets from Coke and trying to sell them to Pepsi. The suspects include an executive administrative 2 assistant at the Atlanta-based Coca-Cola Company. The worker is accused of pilfering 4 corporate 5 files as well as stuffing documents and a new Coca-Cola product into a personal bag.

Some of this information is as important to its, its holders 6, um, in this case, the Coca-Cola Company, as classified information is to the government, or other kinds of confidential 7 information are to other people. This, this information by definition in the statute 8 is worth a great deal of, of money, er, independent of, er, of anything else.

Prosecutors say Pepsi officials alerted Coke to the attempted scam. Coke then contacted the FBI. The suspects have been charged with wire fraud and unlawfully stealing and selling Coke trade secrets. They are expected in court Thursday.
