 The Internet Classics Archive | Marcus Cato by Plutarch
There was a man of the highest rank, and very influential among the Romans, called Valerius Flaccus, who was singularly skilful in discerning excellence yet in the bud, and also much disposed to nourish and advance it.
Lucius, it seems, took along with him in all his commands a youth whom he had kept as his companion from the flower of his age, and to whom he gave as much power and respect as to the chiefest of his friends and relations.
His treatment of Lucius, likewise the brother of Scipio, and one who had been honoured with a triumph, occasioned some odium against Cato; for he took his horse from him, and was thought to do it with a design of putting an affront on Scipio Africanus, now dead.

 Pro L. Flacco M. Tulli Ciceronis Oratio
"Lucius Valerius Flaccus had been praetor in Cicero's consulship, and had received the thanks of the senate for his zeal and vigor in the arrest of Catiline's accomplices; but he was now accused by Publius Laelius of rapine and oppression in the province of Asia, which had fallen to his lot after his praetorship.
A stronger motive seems to have been the desire of the Triumvirs to eliminate Flaccus as a member of the nobility opposing their interests, and in Pompey's case another motive was his genuine concern for good provincial government.
Flaccus appears to have been acquitted and there is good reason to feel that he owed the favorable verdict more to his counsel's powers of persuasion than to any inherent strength of his case.

 LUCIUS SERGIUS CATILINA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Lucius Sergius Catilina was a patrician member of a noble family which had not provided Rome with a consul for more than three hundred years and whose decayed fortunes he was determined to revive.
Endowed with military talents of distinction, he was a member of the staff of the consul Gnaeus Pompeius Strabo in 89 B.C. at the siege of the rebel town of Asculum.
The highest office in the State, the summit of his political ambitions, was not to be his by constitutional means, and it was the realization of this fact that turned Catiline into an active revolutionary preparing a coup d' etat in Rome and an insurrection in Italy.
