"Protection Racket"

 

Prince Harry's lawyer says royal officials should have stayed out of protection decision

 

LONDON (Reuters) - A lawyer for Prince Harry argued in court on Thursday that the royal household should not have been involved in a UK government decision to deny him police protection while in Britain.

 

Harry, who moved to the United States two years ago with his wife Meghan to lead a more independent life, is challenging the decision for him to cease receiving police protection even if he covers the cost himself.

 

Prince Harry's lawyer, Shaheed Fatima, told a High Court hearing that the queen's private secretary Edward Young was part of the organisation that decided Harry should no longer receive the same degree of protection after he stopped being a working royal.

 

Fatima said that Harry did not know at the time that members from the royal household were involved in the decision and that certain members should not have been.

 

"He did not know at that stage the royal household was involved at all. He said he was told that it was an independent decision," she said.

Russian Billionaire Abramovich Hires Law Firm to Fight Jet-Seizure Warrant

 

Last I heard, Abramovich was trying to borrow money ($1 million) from his buddies the Rothschilds because he couldn't make payroll. Wonder who is paying for his lawyers? I'll take a look.

 

Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich hired US law firm Kobre & Kim to represent him at rates of up to $1,900 an hour as he prepares to contest a US warrant to seize two of his jets over alleged sanction violations.

 

Kobre and two of its attorneys, Michael Kim and Michael Sherwin, registered with the US Justice Department to represent Abramovich on “government relations strategy” and “judicial and administrative proceedings.” The legal rates will range from $875 to $1,900 an hour, according to a filing this week under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.

Abramovich's lawer, Michael Sherwin, is a real gem at the CIA.

 

Mr. Sherwin has extensive experience working with prosecutors, investigators and intelligence agencies from these regions on collaborative, long-term corporate fraud, commodities and tax fraud, digital currency and national security matters.

 

Before joining Kobre & Kim, Mr. Sherwin most recently served as the Acting United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, where he supervised the largest federal prosecutor office in the United States.

 

Under Mr. Sherwin's leadership, his office brought several historic cases, including the largest seizure of illicit Iranian petroleum in U.S. history; the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) first seizure of illicit digital currency linked to al-Qaida and other designated terrorist groups; and the filing of criminal charges against Libyan national Abu Agela Masud, the alleged bomb-maker who constructed the explosive device that destroyed Pan AM 103 in December 1988, killing 270 people over Lockerbie, Scotland.

 

Prior to becoming Acting U.S. Attorney, Mr. Sherwin was an Associate Deputy Attorney General, where he advised Attorney General William Barr and Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen on national security matters. During that time, Mr. Sherwin worked closely with the National Security Council and provided DOJ leadership advice on sensitive counterintelligence and counterterrorism matters, to include work on various complicated Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) and Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) cases.

 

Mr. Sherwin was chosen by Attorney General Eric Holder to serve a special detail for the U.S. Department of State in Bagram, Afghanistan, where he assisted the Afghanistan Attorney General's Office in more than 120 primary court terrorism trials and 250 appellate cases before a specially convened Afghan judicial tribunal. These cases focused on prosecuting top-tier Taliban and al-Qaida explosives engineers, suicide-bomb recruiters and terrorism financiers.

 

During that time Mr. Sherwin was the lead prosecutor in the conviction of Sigifredo Maya, a top member of the Medellín Cartel and close associate of Pablo Escobar and Carlos Lehder.

 

Prior to becoming an attorney, Mr. Sherwin was an officer in the United States Navy from 1999 to 2004, serving both afloat in the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean Sea, and afoot throughout the Middle East and Europe.
