At least that's what happened in the (excellent) movie https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7937254/
It’s a reference to a scene in the film _Margin Call_.
It reminds me of the movie Law Abiding Citizen.Check it out if you haven't already: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1197624/
You might enjoy the film "The Square": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4995790/. Hilarious send-up of this BS. Try to avoid reading any spoilers, it'll be much better that way.
That's a plot point of the recent movie Sicario. (Highly recommended - it's the movie of the year for me.)
Subject of the amazing movie The Insider (1999), I might add for interested people.
American Animals is a movie of a similar situation (if not the same one)
Sort of like the big con in the movie The Sting, but real.
See the movie Blackberry[0] for a dramatic telling of this.[0]: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/blackberry
A classic scene on the subject: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=szcviFDt9xMFictional, but based on a real event.
