@[email protected] "haha he's too smart to have done it in an illegal way, your honor! look, he's wealthy, soooooo"

So why in the world would someone who was wealthy and had resources just plead guilty and surrender their money instead of fighting it, when they have the resources to keep fighting and will just lose them if they don't?This is a thing that doesn't explain his own behavior and it feels like maybe that is why he is stuck on it?
-
@Vrimj according to him, because he thought it would keep his wife out of jail.

@molly0xfff
Oh does she not have the same resources? -

@Vrimj she presumably has access to his money — whatever’s left of it — plus whatever she brings in on her own. she was also using his same lawyers.
he’s not been particularly willing to speak about bond’s case (understandably, as it’s ongoing), but his claims that she’s innocent of her charges are a little hard to square with his claims that he pleaded guilty to things he didn’t do to save her from prison.

@cryptadamist i didn’t it was pretty meandering

@molly0xfff It’s interesting that he simultaneously claims he didn’t know all this fraud was going on, but also claims to know that, for example, Caroline Ellison is more responsible for it than has been portrayed, etc. This seems to me to be a case where both these things cannot be true. You either know both or you know neither.
Also, you’ve got a typo in your image caption: “Potomoc.”

@freeagent oop, thanks! and yes, i had the same thought in an earlier draft — unfortunately ended up cutting it bc of length
