TRUMP AND HIS LAWYER'S MORALITY: WHAT IS LEGAL, WHAT IS MORAL? https://amp.businessinsider.com/jay-seku...fit-to-family-2017-6 Trump's new lawyer reportedly steered more than $60 million from his nonprofit to family members Peter Jacobs Jun 27, 2017, 12:01 PM ET A nonprofit run by Jay Sekulow steered millions of dollars to his family members, according to a report in The Guardian published Tuesday. Sekulow is one of President Donald Trump's lawyers and has emerged as the public face of his legal team. He also runs a nonprofit called Christian Advocates Serving Evangelism, or Case. Its sister organization is the American Center for Legal Justice. The Guardian obtained documents that it said showed that Sekulow approved plans in 2009 - at the height of the recession - "to push poor and jobless people to donate money to his Christian nonprofit." Guardian reporter Jon Swaine also found that Case had pushed "more than $60m to Sekulow, his family, and their businesses" since 2000. Sekulow and his family may be in violation of a federal law prohibiting nonprofits from paying "excessive benefits" to the people running them, according to experts who spoke to The Guardian. Here are some parts of the nonprofit that stood out, according to The Guardian: Millions of dollars in donations were used to pay Sekulow, his wife, his sons, and his extended family. A law firm co-owned by Sekulow and a production company he owns were paid tens of millions of dollars by Case. Case provided "a series of unusual loans and property deals" to Sekulow and his family. "I can't imagine this situation being acceptable," Arthur Rieman, a managing attorney at The Law Firm for Nonprofits, in California, told The Guardian. "That kind of money is practically unheard of in the nonprofit world, and these kinds of transactions I could never justify." Sekulow's spokesman, Gene Kapp, sent this statement to The Guardian: "The financial arrangements between the ACLJ, Case and all related entities are regularly reviewed by outside independent compensation experts and have been determined to be reasonable. In addition, each entity has annual independent outside audits performed by certified public accounting firms. Further, the IRS has previously conducted audits of the ACLJ and Case and found them to be in full compliance of all applicable tax laws."

It's so much easier for them to all just open up a super PAC. It's tax free and they can pay family members whatever they want. If there are any legal problems with it they only get fined. And guess what? The fines can be paid by the super PAC! Legalized money laundering at your service! "Dogs think people are Gods.

A PAC OR SUPERPAC MAY BE LEGALIZED MONEY LAUNDERING. BUT A CHARITABLE NON-PROFIT SOUNDS EVEN BETTER. WHAT IS BETTER THAN A CHRISTIAN NON-PROFIT CHARITY THAT BENEFITS YOUR OWN FAMILY MEMBERS? $60 MILLION SPENT ON SALARIES, LOANS, ETC. TO BENEFIT A LAWYER AND HIS FAMILY. AND, QUOTE: Sekulow approved plans in 2009 - at the height of the recession - "to push poor and jobless people to donate money to his Christian nonprofit." CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME. THIS LAWYER USES A CHRISTIAN CHARITY TO PAY HIMSELF AND HIS FAMILY OVER $60 MILLION. AND IT'S LEGAL. THE IRS HAS CONDUCTED AUDITS OF THIS CHRISTIAN NON-PROFIT CHARITY, AND FOUND IT TO BE IN FULL COMPLIANCE OF ALL TAX LAWS. THE RICH ARE DIFFERENT FROM YOU AND I. THEY CAN SWINDLE THE POOR AND JOBLESS, AND GET AWAY WITH IT. WITHOUT LEGAL TRAINING, OR LEGAL SMARTS, IF YOU TAKE EVEN $100, YOU CAN BE SENT TO JAIL OR PRISON FOR YEARS. BUT WITH LEGAL TRAINING, YOU CAN TAKE $60 MILLION, AND CALL IT CHARITY. | |

https://thinkprogress.org/man-faces-life...f-candy-401b24ace012 ThinkProgress Judd Legum Editor-In-Chief, ThinkProgress Apr 3, 2016 Man Faces Life In Prison For Stealing $31 Worth Of Candy A New Orleans man could spend the rest of his life in jail after allegedly shoving “$31 worth of candy bars into his pockets at a Dollar General store.” The man, 34-year-old Jacobia Grimes, is being charged by prosecutors under the state’s “habitual-offender law.” Grimes has five prior convictions for theft. All of Grimes convictions “involved thefts of less than $500.” His last conviction was for stealing “some socks and trousers.” Grimes appeared in court last week and pled not guilty. He faces a potential sentence of 20 years to life. He has already spent 9 years in jail for his previous convictions. The decision to come down hard on Grimes met a skeptical audience from Judge Franz Zibilich, who is overseeing the case. “It’s not even funny, 20 years to life for a Snickers bar, or two or three or four,” Zibilich said. If Grimes is found guilty, Louisiana law could leave Zibilich little discretion over the sentence. Louisiana’s habitual offender law has been in place for 30 years. The result has been that “[s]entences of several decades, or even life, for nonviolent crimes are not unusual in Louisiana.” In other states, individuals convicted of similar crimes “would have received a much shorter sentence or no jail time at all.” Grimes’ case is an example of how Louisiana became the “world’s prison capital.” A 2012 expose by The Times-Picayune found that the state imprisons more of its citizens than any other states and its incarceration rate is “nearly five times Iran’s, 13 times China’s and 20 times Germany’s.” A major factor driving Louisiana’s massive inmate population is money. Each prisoner costs Lousiana an average of $18,800 per year. Sending Grimes to prison for 20 years would cost the state around $376,000. “A majority of Louisiana inmates are housed in for-profit facilities, which must be supplied with a constant influx of human beings or a $182 million industry will go bankrupt,” The Times-Picayune reported. | |
