Federal agents, cops, prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges other than in a fact-finding role, etc. deal with alleged facts and evidence. In the US system both terms only mean what the evidence proved to that particular fact-finder beyond a reasonable doubt, and "not guilty" does not mean the same thing as "innocent."

Depending on what you mean by "charged," not all of the publicly-disclosed direct promoters of Adams' scheme have been "charged" in the sense the word is most-often used and understood by laypeople. Wayne Kelly, for example, was "charged" by the SEC but that was a civil action in which he paid money, etc. and settled it. But more importantly to the Alexander and Seawright situation, from what I've seen the only promoters of that "investment opportunity" (which was, as I understand it, basically a derivative based upon underlying Adams'/Madison Timber "investments") were Alexander and Seawright. It is at least theoretically possible they were just mindbogglingly stupid, negligent, and not actually aware the underlying basis of their derivative "investment opportunity" was a Ponzi scheme. If there is enough evidence to convince a USA that either or neither of them had intent of criminality, it would be the duty of that USA to refrain from charging or seeking indictment(s). It is also possible, and I'd suggest reasonably likely, that not every shoe has dropped in the entire situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-10038089245841710432019-11-16T07:20:36.150-06:002019-11-16T07:20:36.150-06:00Perhaps but all of the other promoters have been c...Perhaps but all of the other promoters have been charged.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-59789171840504231072019-11-15T17:44:55.530-06:002019-11-15T17:44:55.530-06:00"Perhaps because neither committed a crime.&q..."Perhaps because neither committed a crime."<br /><br />Perhaps, but don't bet on the lack of arrests being solid evidence of the lack of crimes. The Fed often move with seemingly slow deliberation on things like this because there is little danger of either of them pulling a (successful) disappearing act and little chance of making a markedly more-substantive recovery of funds for "investors" in this mess by acting sooner rather than later. Further, since those who "invested" via Alexander and Seawright were, at least in large part, better-off people looking for above-average and unrealistic returns on "investments" (rather than, for example, a bunch of elderly _victims_ of meager means barely surviving on SS and cat food), your average Fed or USA isn't likely be so sympathetic to the alleged "victims" so as to rush down to pop one cow when they can walk down and nail them all.

I’m loosing all faith in the legal system at this point. What more do we need to glean about their criminal activities to put them behind bars? Are white collar criminals exempt from punishment? Furthermore, Baked Donelson should have immediately terminated these two criminals. The fact that they haven’t yet makes one suspicious of the law firms involvement.
