Bitcoin Fraud

Sentence Reduced

The client was indicted on numerous federal charges related to the production and sale of fake identification over the dark web beginning in or around 2010. At the time of his arrest, law enforcement officers seized over 500 Bitcoin from the client, which the Government alleged to be the proceeds of the illegal activities. Due to the nature of the charges and the estimated value of the Bitcoin that was seized, the client was ordered to remain in federal custody during the pendency of the case.

The client eventually retained the law firm of Friedman Nemecek Long & Grant to represent him in the case. After filing a Motion requesting that the client be released from jail the Judge ordered that the client be released from jail and placed on pretrial supervision.
