《封面人物》第10集 当年知法犯法 当红副检察司格林奈：我非完人 The Newsmaker Ep 10: Former DPP Glenn Knight: I'm not infallible

1984年，红极一时的副检查司格林奈（Glenn Knight），被委任设立专门调查商业罪案的商业事务局。岂料，他却自己犯下了商业罪，人生跌入谷底、难以翻身。

格林奈于1970年加入政府部门，出任副检察司和政府律师。他在1984年设立了商业事务局后，担任该局的第一任局长。在1991年，格林奈开始遭贪污调查局调查，并被令离职，结束了他21年的公共服务。这突如其来的变化，当时震惊了新加坡司法界。

格林奈承认在1989年向财政部负官员提呈一份不确实的购车发票，以及在1990年，企图诱骗商人黄思绵投资300万元在“梦幻度假村”计划。最初判入狱三个月的他，后来上诉成功，获判入狱一天兼罚款1万7000元。

1998年，他再度面对牢狱之灾。格林奈被指在担任商业事务局局长期间，失信与挪用公款，判坐牢1天，罚款1万元。

自1991年，他先后被令离职、入狱、罚款、及除去律师资格，一直到2007年才获准回复执业律师资格。

虽然光环不再，但他对于能够重新执业感到欣慰。如今已71岁的格林奈，如何看待过往跌宕起伏的一生？回首自己走过的路，他又有什么感慨？

SINGAPORE - He shone and dazzled through his stellar career in Singapore’s legal service. The peak of his 21-year career was when he founded the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD), charged with the duty of bringing commercial criminals to task. But it all came crashing down in 1991, when he was probed and subsequently convicted of commercial crimes. 

Following his first conviction, Glenn Knight was disbarred from legal practice in 1994. Four years later, he was convicted again for misappropriating CAD funds during his stint as director.  It took more than a decade before his application to be reinstated was granted in 2007,  making him the sixth lawyer to be reinstated to the Law Society in Singapore.

Speaking from his small office in Toa Payoh North, Glenn Knight, now 71, is mellow, soft-spoken and pensive. He takes a look back at his fall from grace, and shares his thoughts on the path he's travelled.
