As I described very thoroughly on X, I now have no doubt that Ver is guilty of all charges. Nearly every assertion of his is marbled with distortions, half-truths, lies, or omissions. This is provable even within his own Motion to Dismiss. Ver could have refused to file/pay the unconstitutional 26 USC 877A "exit tax" and challenged it in court as a champion of Freedom. But he didn't do that. It's obvious to me that he under-reported the hell of his personal BTCs through a phony back-dated gift scheme. First off, he's not facing "109 years!" (30 of those years don't even apply, as no death occurred from his mail fraud) and not even a farfetched consecutive 79 years, but probably <20 years. Hardly a "life sentence". Why do I care about any of this? Because charlatans like Roger Ver have polluted the Freedom Movement I’ve known and supported for over three decades. https://solarireport.substack.com/p/the-prosecution-of-roger-ver-a-lawfare/comments
