Egypt, 1974 to 2026. Where the state owns the desert and once sold the gas, fortunes were made by admission to the state; when a revolution put their owners on trial in 2011, almost every conviction was overturned or settled. The one family conviction that stood concerned a palaces budget; an interior minister's last penalty was a 500-pound fine. Beneath them lie crimes the state barely pursued: village Ponzi schemes, Sinai ransom camps, kidneys bought from the poor, a looted coffin sold to the Met. Covers Hosni, Alaa and Gamal Mubarak and the presidential palaces case, Hussein Salem and East Mediterranean Gas, Ahmed Ezz and Ezz Steel, Habib el-Adly and the Interior Ministry, Ibrahim al-Organi and Hala Consulting and Tourism, and Gamal al-Labban and the State Council.
