Pras Michél was found guilty. Not any of the white people involved with this case, but only the black man. I think he broke the law, but so did they. Why is he being punished? (hint: racism)

➤ #CrossRiverBank is ALSO under investigation for massive #PPP loan fraud
➤ Put it together: Coinbase is a money laundering enterprise for the PRC & Chinese criminal underworld funded by money stolen from Malaysia's people. Also from the #PPP loan program.
