Chris Eaton is a former police officer and integrity specialist who has also overseen security and anti-corruption efforts in sports.

Eaton has over 40 years' public service experience in the fields of international law enforcement, security and integrity.

[13] Eaton initiated unique institutional tools for sport to combat corruption in football, including a hotline and website in 180 languages, the offer of amnesties,[14] rewards[15] and rehabilitation for anyone who revealed important information.

[18] His resignation was a setback for the infamous Asiagate[19] scandal as Eaton was also instrumental in the arrest of the Singaporean man at the center of the match-fixing debacle, Wilson Raj Perumal.

In 2016 20th Century Fox and Chernin Entertainment purchased Eaton's life rights to develop a feature film [6] based on Forrest's book.
