A federal judge in Columbus ordered detaining Root Insurance Co.’s former marketing chief until he complies with her order to turn over personal and business financial records to a court-appointed receiver.
U.S. Marshals led Brinson “B.C.” Silver out of the courtroom in handcuffs on Tuesday, after which the judge told receivers and attorneys she would release him as soon as he provides requested records.
