The #indictment also charges Collins’ son Cameron Collins & the father of his fiancée, Stephen Zarsky.

Collins was a board member of biotech firm Innate Immunotherapeutics & allegedly gave his son insider info that was used to make timely stock trades.🤬

Disgraced former HHS Secretary Tom Price also invested in Innate Therapeutics, based on a tip he allegedly received from Collins, who sat on the company’s board.🙄

Collins himself did not sell shares based on insider info, but:

1) he already faced scrutiny for Innate by the Office of Congressional Ethics
2) his shares were held in #Australia where trading of Innate was halted so he couldn't trade, unlike his son & others (traded in the US)
Chris Collins also sponsored bills that would have benefited Innate Therapeutics, **while he was the TOP shareholder**.🙄

.@GOP Rep Chris Collins claims he didn’t commit insider trading b/c he didn’t trade shares himself.

But Collins **could NOT** have traded his shares, b/c they were held in #Australia👉🏼AUS stock exchange halted trading of Innate, unlike the US.🙄
