FBI investigating Pilot Flying J, company owned by governor's family--tennessee

The FBI on Monday locked down the Knoxville headquarters of Pilot Flying J, the multibillion-dollar convenience store and truck stop chain owned by the governor’s family.

Federal authorities, however, would not say what they were investigating.

An official with the FBI’s office in Knoxville said the action involved both the FBI and the Internal Revenue Service, but did not offer details.

The company was founded by the father of Gov. Bill Haslam and Jimmy Haslam, who owns the Cleveland Browns.
