Golden Finance reports that a lawyer who laundered $400 million from the OneCoin scam has been denied a retrial despite arguing that there were legal errors and false testimony in the original 2019 trial. Lawyer Mark Scott, 54, argued that he did not know at the time that OneCoin was a fraudulent operation and therefore should not be charged for his role in setting up a money laundering fund for OneCoin founder Ruja Ignatova.


Scott was convicted of money laundering and bank fraud conspiracy in November 2019, with prosecutors determining that Scott made a total of $50 million through fraudulent funds that processed payments and transactions siphoned off from the OneCoin scheme. His legal team has since sought a new trial, citing false testimony from a government witness in the original trial.
