Notable Quotes 2
They also reiterated their continued interest in meeting with someone at DOJ, whether our office or otherwise, to engage in discussions on forfeiture negotiations, particularly since they view it as an overhang that affects their ability to finalize payments through a Fund process, which they have a hearing about in USVI on Feb. 4.
As best I can tell, there are no changes to the trust agreement between 2001 and October 2012 — so for the full time period covering the prior investigation and his state prosecution — which is itself somewhat interesting.
Red Flags 2
- The Trustees' continued interest in meeting with the DOJ regarding forfeiture negotiations could indicate potential legal complexities or concerns.
- The lack of changes to the trust agreement during the prior investigation and state prosecution is noted as 'somewhat interesting'.
