No Federal Charges over Subsidized Game Company's Collapse

Rhode Island's U.S. Attorney's office began conducting a review in June to see if 38 Studios' management had broken any federal laws, such as bank fraud, hoping to find out if the studio provided false information when seeking loans to keep the company afloat.
