Read the article mentioned .. the defendant missed an important chapter on "Getting Even". It is --> "Don't get caught". That old adage of "Revenge is a dish best served cold" comes to mind.. as in calm down, think your actions through, and then execute or not execute after careful objective assessment. My best "revenge" has always been just moving on to bigger and better opportunities - often with the competition.
She deserves her sentence just for being so sloppy.

It was very clear Segment 2 was the red headed step child early on. They are going to keep cuttingg it just like OP says and push BP's to own the relationships. This was so obvious from the beginning. It's really just a matter of when.

So was the segment 1 strategy an 80/20 breakdown? Keep 80% of the accounts with direct coverage and let the BP/channel have 20% of the accounts? That then begs the question does the segment 2 strategy run that in reverse? 80% of the accounts go the BP/channel route with 20% getting direct coverage?
