Judge denies request to maintain
A motion filed by lawyers for James Fayed and e-Bullion to maintain the company's computer systems has been turned down, according to a report in the Ventura County Star.
Lawyers had requested that authorities release $300,000 out of approximately $24 million in assets that had been seized from e-Bullion's offices and Fayed's home by FBI and IRS agents on August 5, after Fayed was charged with operating a money transmittal business without a license. U.S. District Court Judge Philip Gutierrez was quoted as saying the motion to release the funds 'seems more like it's preserving a business rather than preserving data' that could serve as evidence in the trial.

The government understands this very well, but it simply couldn't care less. It has been stealing from the little people since this country was formed. Our attorney general, past, has been found to have violated Federal law, and there is no intent to prosecute. Let the little people steal $20 and they will do jail time. Nothing has changed. |

Doesn't the judge and the US government understand, that the money doesn't belong to Fayed but to the account holders? How stupid are they. Or does the US Government need money so bad they have to steal it from little people? I am not an US citizen, but if I would live in LA, I would be right there and demand my money back. Why are they holding money from foreigners, isn't there a law? Why don't the newspaper don't write an article about the Government taking money not from the man they indicted, but from regular people, who need their money to live on. Would they seize a bank like that, and the account holders could not access their bank accounts. What kind of monkey business is that. I had my money in a Panama company, which e-bullion is, and how come they seized my money, from a foreign corporation. The US Government playes God of the World again. |
