When Keith H. Packer returned to the U.K. last year after eight months in prison in Pensacola, Florida, the ex-British Airways Plc cargo manager found work telling executives how antitrust violations landed him in a concrete cell with a one-eyed drug offender.
Anheuser-Busch InBev NV, Deutsche Post AG’s DHL unit and Randstad Holding NV are among the companies that have asked Packer to describe the circumstances around his 2008 guilty plea to U.S. charges that he colluded with rivals to inflate fuel surcharges paid by thousands of air-freight customers.
