EXPLOSIVE:
When
@amazon
's lawyers targeted my husband, their lawyer - a former federal prosecutor - emailed his former colleagues & said Amazon would talk to DOJ about "asset restraint/recovery."
DOJ then seized $7M from Amazon's targets based on Amazon's allegations. /1
(These docs are all on the public docket in Amazon's civil case against my husband, where a federal judge ruled in April that my husband - even if he did exactly what Amazon said he did - acted in accordance with the "explicit terms" of AMAZON's contract.)
When DOJ wasn't acting fast enough for Amazon, their lawyer emailed DOJ & said, hey, prosecutor, can you please get on the phone & update me about the bank accounts we've asked you to subpoena/seize? (Isn't grand jury secrecy… a thing?) /3
And then, 2 days later - Amazon's lawyer had the AUDACITY to email DOJ & say, hey, need you on the phone again! I want to tell you Amazon's position on the "timing" of the investigation & seizure we ordered up.
This is a real email, from a private attorney.
