The 'Brokers of Death' arms case (officially United States v. Samuel Evans et al) was a US trial in the 1980s relating to the attempted shipment of $2.5bn worth of US-made arms to Iran; it was described by the Los Angeles Times in 1986 as "the largest arms conspiracy prosecution ever brought by the Justice Department". The case (with indictments in May 1986, following a four-month investigation) was dropped in January 1989 after the prosecution said it could not prove the defendants did not believe their dealings were officially sanctioned. The planned deals were being arranged at the same time as the White House was secretly seeking to arrange arms sales to Iran, in what became known as the Iran-Contra affair; some evidence indicated that defendants were aware of these efforts.

  • United States v. Samuel Evans et al., surnommé en anglais Brokers of Death' arms case (que l'on peut traduire par « Poursuite contre les armes des marchands de la mort »), est un procès tenu aux États-Unis dans les années 1980 portant sur un envoi d'armes avorté, d'une valeur de 2,5 milliards US$, vers l'Iran.Selon le Los Angeles Times, dans un article de 1986, c'est « la poursuite la plus importante jamais engagée par le département de la Justice des États-Unis dans une affaire de conspiration d'armes ».La poursuite (accusations déposées en mai 1986, suivies d'une enquête de quatre mois) est abandonnée en janvier 1989 lorsque le bureau du procureur a déclaré son incapacité à prouver que les défendeurs ne croyaient pas que leur entente serait officiellement entérinée. Dans le même temps, la Maison-Blanche négociait secrètement avec les Iraniens pour vendre des armes, opération qui appartient à ce qui sera appelé l'affaire Iran-Contra. Des indices laissent croire que les défendeurs savaient que des tractations de cette nature étaient en cours. (fr)
