Research thread on Roger Ver indictment

E. Martin Estrada is the charging US Attorney on Roger Ver's indictiment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._Martin_Estrada He's had a great career with Munger, Tolles & Olson, a California law firm. That firm defended utility company PG&E when they negligently started wildfires all over California, killing hundreds of people. They also defended Transocean Deepwater Inc for negligently spilling billions of gallons of oil into the Carribean Ocean, killing untold amounts of ocean life and destroying the regional fishing industry for years. Did I mention that the law firm was founded by noted Bitcoin hater Charlie Munger, and they represented Bitcoin hater Warren Buffet when he decided to give $41 billion to The Bill Gates Foundation (https://archive.is/sUgON)?

For some reason Martin decided to go after Roger Ver for not paying taxes in the USA ten years after Roger renounced his USA citizenship. Maybe he should make better use of his time and stick to defending scumbag corporations and helping billionaires launder their fortunes?

Adding a charge of Mail Fraud for the filing of an erroneous tax return is ridiculous. Arresting someone on vacation in Spain is vindictive. This whole thing stinks.
