Lawsuit: Adjourned Commonwealth of Redmont v. V__D [2023] FCR 109

[Alexander P. Love]

May it please the Court,

Your honor, this case is simple. $5million was taken from the treasury but this was not a criminal act due to the letter of the law.

For corruption, it is defined as “To use a government position to act to give some advantage inconsistent with official duty and the rights of others to unfairly benefit oneself, or someone else. By applying, being appointed to, or being elected into a position in government, the player agrees to serve the server over themselves.” The defense argues that the defendant did not use their government position for this as they were not a senator at the time. However, they still had permissions granted to that role otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to h fine, therefore they did use the government position, and I think nobody can argue that an instant $5 million dollars isn’t an advantage inconsistent with the role.

The defense admits that my client was not a Senator at the time. As staff will testify in this trial, the bugged permission is not necessarily due to their old position, it was a system glitch that cannot be proven to be linked to my client's former job as a Senator.

For embezzlement it is defined in the white collar crack down act as “The act of withholding assets for the purpose of conversion of such assets, by one or more persons to whom the assets were entrusted, for personal gain.” Your honor, this is exactly what the defendant did. They withheld government assets, in this case cash, for the purpose of conversion. As the defense stated previously the funds were spread out and diverted and converted. The assets were entrusted to the defendant, otherwise they would not have had permissions allowing them to fine/unfine.

This is false. They had the permissions due to an error, and in fact were not entrusted with the assets. He was a former Senator, and Senators can't even take from the treasury since Congress as a whole makes appropriation decisions. Even if he was still a Senator, he wouldn't have been entrusted with those assets. He cannot be guilty of embezzlement if he was not entrusted with the assets.

Money laundering is defined as “Any act to conceal funds illegally obtained, through commercial transactions, business deals, or any means otherwise." The defense again has affirmed that the defendant did exactly this. They illegally acquired the funds, then spread those funds out through commercial transactions. Why would the defendant do this? Clearly to spread the money out and conceal those funds.

This is speculation. My client, as he will testify, did it because banks offer incentives such as no taxation, interest yield, and investing to grow wealth. This was a financially prudent decision, not a criminal one. Simply spreading money out isn't money laundering. If that was the case, every single person is probably guilty of money laundering. Laundering focuses on whether or not the intent was to conceal the money. Banks don't conceal money as the DOC monitors their transactions. How can a known banker who knows what the DOC sees expect to conceal money by depositing it into banks? The illogical statements made by the prosecution simply don't add up.

This was a special case involving a bug. Because of that bug, the normal laws don't apply to this situation. If he was still with the Government and had role-specific permissions, he would certainly be guilty of embezzlement. But he was not. The Court must find him not guilty. Thank you.

Given the Opening Statement was provided after the 48 hour extension I will be charging AlexanderLove with Contempt of Court and order the Department of Justice to jail and/or fine them accordingly.

I will not strike the Opening Statement however as due process and charging with Contempt is enough. If I strike the Opening Statement I would be doing harm against the Defendant without a full trial when it was their Attorneys fault.

We will now be moving onto Witnesses, given only the Defendant listed out Witnesses as soon as the Witnesses appear the Defense may start questioning. The Summons will be in a different message.

After discussing with the Chief Justice, the Staff team will not be charged with Contempt and will be removed from the Witness list. This is due to the fact that when pinging Staff I was meant to ping a member of its Leadership which I did not know. Despite this to keep the trial moving we will not be resummoning and rather moving forward. Apologies if this was a key Witness however we have to keep moving.

With that said, the Defense may begin questioning.

[MrFluffy2U94]

Staff Team,

What rank did the defendant hold on December 25th that allowed him to have fine/unfine permissions?

When and why was this rank given to the defendant?

VD,

Were you aware when you unfined yourself that you were not legally entrusted with the funds that you were taking?

Why did you think that it was okay to unfine yourself $5,000,000 from the government without seeking approval from anyone?

Given your extensive resume in politics, have you ever previously used permissions given to you to unfine yourself large sums of money without justification?

Is it true that only $4,456,743.11 has been recovered by the government at this point?

If so, where did the remaining $543,256.89 go?

Nexalin previously testified that Discover bank was paying 2% interest on their accounts, did you receive any interest payments or financial compensation as a result of depositing any of the money that was received on December 25th?

Nexalin,

In your expert opion, and experience in the banking industry, would you consider suddenly receiving $5,000,000 an advantage in this server?

 

[Nexalin]

In your expert opinion, and experience in the banking industry, would you consider suddenly receiving $5,000,000 an advantage in this server?

Yes, receiving a sudden influx of $5,000,000 can be considered an advantage in many contexts, due to the significant financial flexibility and opportunities it provides.

 

[Alexander P. Love]

When and why was this rank given to the defendant?

Objection, your honor. Compound question.

In your expert opion, and experience in the banking industry, would you consider suddenly receiving $5,000,000 an advantage in this server?

Objection, your honor. Question calls for conclusion.

Were you aware when you unfined yourself that you were not legally entrusted with the funds that you were taking?

Objection, your honor. Question relies on facts not in evidence and also lack of foundation. Also calls for conclusion and incompetent as the witness isn’t qualified to testify to the legality of an issue.

Why did you think that it was okay to unfine yourself $5,000,000 from the government without seeking approval from anyone?

Objection, your honor. Lack of foundation and assumes facts not in evidence (particularly the last part, and assuming he thought it was okay).

What rank did the defendant hold on December 25th that allowed him to have fine/unfine permissions?

Objection, your honor. Relevance. We already heard he wasn’t a Senator, so any answer to this is irrelevant and outside the scope of the trial.

Given your extensive resume in politics, have you ever previously used permissions given to you to unfine yourself large sums of money without justification?

Your honor, my client will be invoking the fifth right at this time for this question.

Is it true that only $4,456,743.11 has been recovered by the government at this point?

Nexalin previously testified that Discover bank was paying 2% interest on their accounts, did you receive any interest payments or financial compensation as a result of depositing any of the money that was received on December 25th?

Objection, your honor. Relevance. Whether or not he was actually paid interest is not of interest in this case, only the thought process behind depositing money in the first place. Furthermore, compound question as interest payments and financial compensation are separate. Also ambiguous as it specifies Discover initially, then the question seems to ask about all global forms of payments.

RESPONSE TO OBJECTIONS

Your honor,

This is absurd. The Defense is clearly trying to hinder the Plaintiffs right to cross-examination. We did not object or nitpick any of the questions asked by the Defense.

1- “Compound Question” I will withdraw and resubmit :

Staff Team

When was the defendant given this role?

Why was the defendant given this role?

2- “Calls for Conclusion” The defense called this witness to act as an expert witness and literally asked the same type of question in their question 3 to the witness.

3- “Assumes facts not in evidence” your honor, I was referencing where the defense themselves have stated such. The defendant has had a long history in politics and is well aware of the permissions granted and laws pertaining to fining and unfining.

4-“lack of foundation” This directly attests to the defendants intentions which are crucial in establishing both embezzlement and corruption charges. The “assumes facts not in evidence” is also absurd as the defense has stated previously that they did not seek approval.

5- “relevance” Also absurd. This is EXTREMELY relevant, as the charge of corruption requires “using a government position” which this question seeks to establish. I recognize that the previous Prosecutor has mentioned the role being due to the defendants previous time served in the Senate, however if it was ANY government position that provided the role, the charge of corruption still applies.

6- “5th amendment” -Fair enough, however I don’t believe that invoking the 5th amendment right to avoid disclosing past criminal history is proper.

7- “5th amendment (in regards to balance repaid) - Your honor, confirmation of this fact is crucial to determining a proper verdict in this trial. If the full amount originally unfined has not been recovered, this needs to be addressed. The 5th amendment allows for one to forgo providing self-incriminating evidence in a court of law. Nothing that’s requested would be self-incriminating, as the fact that the unfine happened has already been established. This is merely confirming whether or not the entire balance that was illegally unfined has been recovered. The defense has previously stated that all $5,000,000 has been received by the government, but the evidence and this very Court have stated that only $4,456,743.11 has been recovered.

8-“assumes facts not in evidence” “lacks foundation” I was merely attempting to provide the defendant with a fair and speedy trial by not wasting time providing this as a follow up question. If the incorrectly proposed 5th amendment statement is overruled in item 7, this question will have both foundation and the facts in evidence required.

9- “Narrative / Nothing Pending” your honors, this argument contradicts several that the defense made before but that’s besides the point. The question serves to establish the criteria required for embezzlement and corruption. The defendant should not only have the funds repaid from their actions, but also have any profit made from the use of the illicit funds repaid to the government as well. No criminal should be allowed to profit from committing a crime, even if the money is paid back. Confirmation of if the defendant has profited from these actions is also crucial to proving corruption, as the Stan states “The act of using a government position to act to give some advantage inconsistent with official duty and the rights of others to unfairly benefit oneself, or someone else.” Any interest paid or financial incentives form ANY of the financial institutions listed would unfairly benefit the defendant.

Your honors, again, it is absurd that the defense would unnecessarily attempt to block the prosecution from cross-examination, and I simply request you overrule these objections.

Thank you for your time.

All of the Objections will be overruled given the question is relevant, was solved later on, is providing clarity, or holds no ground. Given that, the questions are to be answered by the Witnesses. The Objections regarding invoking the fifth right are to be answered by the Defendant and not their Attorney. The questions are directed at them and not their Attorney. The Defendant does have every right to invoke the Fifth however I would rather hear it coming from them to a question that is directed at them than their Attorney and the Attorney doing so in the form of an Objection.

Your honor, my client will need an additional 24 hours to answer the questions.

I'd also like to apologize that I did not respond sooner I was awaiting for some guidance from the Supreme Court regarding the Staff Team's failure to abide by the deadline. Because of this the extension will be starting now rather than before.

Thank you.

 

[MrFluffy2U94]

Mr. VD.

Your question for number 1 was whether or not you were aware of the fact that you were not entrusted with the money at that time. Your response did not properly answer the question so I will ask again.

Were you aware, at the time that you made the unfine, that you were not entrusted with the money that you paid yourself?

Follow up for response 4:

Please provide some clarity here. As established earlier in the case, evidence has only been provided that $4,456,743.11 has been repaid. Your response only stated “all
Money has been returned.” Which could imply that all the money you had at that time was returned, and not the entire amount that was originally unfined.

For transparencies sake, have you returned exactly $5,000,000 to the government?

If this is true, why has your legal counsel not provided evidence that the entire $5,000,000 has been repaid?

Also your honor,

I would provide the same questions again for the staff team :

What rank did the defendant hold on December 25th that allowed him to have fine/unfine permissions?

When was this rank given to the defendant?

Why was this rank given to the defendant?

These questions are absolutely crucial to establishing the case for corruption, as the definition states that the defendant must have used a government position to receive an advantage inconsistent with the position. We have already established that the unfine of $5,000,000 was an advantage inconsistent with the office, so if the “rank” that the staff mentioned the defendant had was in fact due to the defendants holding or previous holding of a government position, then it very well meets the requirements of corruption, and without the answers to this question, the Commonwealth is being denied its right to a fair trial. The defendant was able to ask the staff team questions and receive a response, and the prosecution needs to be given that same right.

Thank you.

RESPONSE TO OBJECTION

Your honor,

Once again we have Mr. Love trying to obstruct our right to a fair trial with absurd objections.

1- "Asked and Answered". My question was asked, and not answered actually. I asked if the defendant was AWARE that they were not entrusted with the funds. They responded stating that they were not entrusted. They did not answer if they were aware of that at the time of the event taking place, which directly affects their intentions. If they knew that they were not entrusted, then it helps strengthen the argument for corruption and embezzlement, and that fact should weigh on the Courts decision for the severity of the punishment handed out.

2- "Counsel is testifying" By definition this is used when "counsel is "leading" or "argumentative" or "assumes facts not in evidence". I am doing none of these things, simply justifiying why I am asking a follow up. Also, this objection is improper as Mr Love has not identified which of these things he is accusing me of.

3- "Asked and answered." Again, the lack of clarity in the defendants response leaves the question, which amount has beebn fully repaid, the sum of $4,456,743.11, or the sum of $5,000,000? This is VITAL information for the Courts to issue a fair and accurate judgment on this case and needs to be clearly answered.

4- You know, I think I have to hand it to Mr. Love, this is the first objection in this case that actually somewhat makes a little bit of sense, I should have directed this question to Mr. Love himself, which if the Court will allow me to, I would like to offer that solution. It solves the objection of "Competency" and "Speculation".

So, Mr. Love, if the defendant has paid $5,000,000 why have you not provided evidence of this?

The prosecution has provided evidence that only $4,456,743.11 has been recovered, and if this other sum is not accounted for, t hen the Courts should rule that the defendant pay back the ENTIRE sum that was taken, and that makes is EXTREMELY relevant to this case.

5- "Counsel is testifying" Your honor, I was merely trying to avoid this very predictable waste of the courst time, and preserve both parties right to a fair and speedy trial and provide Mr. Love and the Court with my justification on the front end, and hopefully avoid another 2 day delay due to the defenses nonsensical objections, apparently to no avail.

I ask that these absurd and unwarranted objections yet again be overruled so that the prosecutions right to cross examination is upheld, just as the defenses right was upheld earlier in the case. I also ask that you compel the staff team to respond, as these questions were not objected to by the defense.

Thank you your honor.

 

[RelaxedGV]

All of the Objections will be sustained for the following reasons:

Asked and Answered #1 - The question was in fact asked and answered beforehand, maybe not to what the Prosecution wanted however the question is similar enough and was asked and Answered already.

Testifying #1 - The Prosecution although argues they were providing reasoning for the question, the question itself does not need justifying for why it needs to be asked unless objected to.

Asked and Answered #2 - although this is a little harder to understand, the Objection not only holds merit but can be agreed it was Asked and Answered beforehand. The question was only split in two pertaining to and the evidence of which is shown below. Although not the same question, I find them to be of similar nature to be deemed the same question and thus the second asking is being Stricken given the Objection.

"Is it true that only $4,456,743.11 has been recovered by the government at this point?

If so, where did the remaining $543,256.89 go?"

Incompetence - This is simply true, the Defendant is not a legal expert and was not summoned to this Court as one. The Defendant primarily spends their time within the Economic Sphere rather than the Legal Sphere thus the Objection of Incompetence is completely true and factual.

I also am disappointed in the Prosecution for their statements within their response to the Incompetence Objection. Although this is a criminal case, the matters are meant to be taken with civility in mind and not being outright disrespectful to the opposition.

I will also be striking the question asked to AlexanderLove given they were not summoned to this case as a witness and if any questions were wished to be asked it should've been done in Interrogatory.

When it comes to compelling the Staff Team to answer, I can only do so much. The Staff Team was summoned and after discussing with Supreme Court Officials I was unable to charge the Staff Team with Contempt. This is one of the key manners the Courts take to compelling someone to answer and given I am unable to do so, furthest I can go is notifying staff they need to respond which was done earlier in the case. Thus I cannot fulfill this and I apologize to the Prosecution and we must move on.

With all of that said, the Prosecution has 48 hours to post any amended questions or new follow-ups to the Witnesses.

Due to the Staff Team still failing to respond and given we cannot hold up an entire case over this matter we must be moving on. The Prosecution has 72 hours to post their Closing Statement.

MOTION TO COMPEL

Your honor,

I apologize for the delay as I had to travel for work the last few days and have been very inactive.

This question and evidence is a crucial piece that the defense has used to argue against the charges presented. The defense simply cannot be allowed to use the argument that the defendant did not hold a government position, while the Staff team refuses to attest to whether or not this is true. This is denying the State the right to fair trial, and I request that you compel the Staff Team to respond. The staff team is NOT above the law, and is required to respond when the court orders them to just as any other citizen and it appalling that the court has allowed them to simply ignore the question without any consequence whatsoever.

In order to preserve the States right to fair trial, I also request an injunction to prohibit this case from moving forward until we are able to get a simple answer to this one simple question.

Thank you.

Motion to Compel is overruled as already the Staff Team was asked to respond and time was already provided for the Staff Team to answer the questions. I have already given more than enough time for the Staff Team to respond and I am sorry that they have no responded however in fairness to the Defenses right to a Speedy Trial I am not going to put this case into Recess over a single question. No matter how crucial the question may be to your argument it does not warrant the entire upholding of a case for the argument.

Coming to the without consequence, I discussed with the Supreme Court regarding the ability to charge with Contempt of Court and was told I cannot which means I have done all I can do at this current moment within time. I stated this before when the Staff Team originally did not respond. In regards to a Fair Trial for the State, I believe I covered that within my entire response.

With that said, you still have about 16 hours left to provide your Closing Statement.
