How crazy does one have to be? I'd love to hear her story behind that. Maybe she'll write a book.

Just ask and you shall receive.

Rita A. Crundwell (born January 10, 1953) was the appointed comptroller and treasurer of Dixon, Illinois, from 1983 to 2012, and the admitted operator of what is believed to be the largest municipal fraud in American history. She was fired in April 2012 after it was revealed that she had embezzled $53.7 million from the city over 22 years to support her championship American Quarter Horse breeding operation. [1][2][3][4] She pled guilty to her crimes and was sentenced to nearly 20 years in prison.[1]

Crundwell's Quarter Horse operation, RC Quarter Horses, was one of the best-known Quarter Horse breeders in the country; her horses won 52 world championships and she was named the leading owner by the American Quarter Horse Association for eight consecutive years prior to her arrest.

One year of prison for each 2.5 million dollars. That's not bad. Where do I sign up?

Where are they actually selling the horses? Those should be worth way more than the statues.

The US Marshals claim part of theirs goes to victims:

Proceeds generated from asset sales are used to compensate victims, supplement funding for law enforcement initiatives and support community programs.

Parts of the US government hold that Bitcoin is property, namely the IRS. However, the government certainly counts it as money with regard to money laundering - just ask Charlie Shrem. Agreed that the undercover purchases aren't really official business, however, this is definitely official business: http://www.usmarshals.gov/asse... I don't imagine that the US Marshals are going to sell Bitcoin one day and then on another day have a different branch of the US government say that Bitcoin isn't a valid means of transferring value, legal tender be damned.

• Level 0: Negligent (Indifference) - Failure to allow successful development process to succeed. All problems are perceived to be technical problems. Managerial and quality assurance activities are deemed to be overhead and superfluous to the task of the software development process.
• Level -1: Obstructive (Counter Productive) - Counter productive processes are imposed. Processes are rigidly defined and adherence to the form is stressed. Ritualistic ceremonies abound. Collective management precludes assigning responsibility. Status quo "über alles" (more important than anything else).
• Level -2: Contemptuous (Arrogance) - Disregard for good software engineering institutionalized. Complete schism between software development activities and software process improvement activities. Complete lack of a training program.
• Level -3: Undermining (Sabotage) - Total neglect of own charter, conscious discrediting of peer organization's software process improvement efforts. Rewarding failure and poor performance.

There are standard procedures for this sort of thing. If the Government seizes regular financial assets such as stocks or bonds, the U.S. Marshalls Service sends them to a licensed broker to be sold. Less liquid assets are sold off at auctions. Here's the current list of auctions. There's a list of used stuff available, from fur coats to USB cables. And lots of bling - gold chains, Rolex watches, gold and silver bars, men's diamond bracelets... Want a cross necklace with 171 diamonds? They've got that. (Some of this stuff just screams "I am a drug dealer.")

Liquidating Bitcoins will be easier than unloading much of that overpriced crap.

(a) Collection of DNA samples
(1) From individuals in custody
(A) The Attorney General may, as prescribed by the Attorney General in regulation, collect DNA samples from individuals who are arrested, facing charges, or convicted or from non-United States persons who are detained under the authority of the United States. The Attorney General may delegate this function within the Department of Justice as provided in section 510 of title 28 and may also authorize and direct any other agency of the United States that arrests or detains individuals or supervises individuals facing charges to carry out any function and exercise any power of the Attorney General under this section.

Automatic expurgation of DNA data upon acquittal? Ha.

That was so close! One of the largest vendors of Microsoft products is Dell, which happens to be in the Western District of Texas.

Better luck next time!

Since when can a citizen or private institution perform a raid?

Since they got a court order. You're arguing in circles over the apparent assumption that they couldn't have had a court order because then they would have been "escorted by law enforcement". Were you not aware that the US Marshals IS a law enforcement agency and not a tap dance squad?

Yeah, the Marshals are used for State judicial affairs in some locales, like New York City. Other area's use Sheriffs or other agencies to collect. It is roughly the equivalent to this http://www.usmarshals.gov/process/execution-writ.h tm but on a State instead of Federal level.

US Marshals collect the money
U.S. Marshals are involved in State judicial affairs? Really?

A quick visit to http://www.usmarshals.gov/ shows *no* method or process by which a Federal agency can collect funds on behalf of a State judicial matter. Maybe you are thinking of asset forfeiture?

If a judge orders someone to do something, and they refuse, isn't it then the justice department's responsibility to enforce that judge's order?

Actually, that's done by U.S. Marshals, the enforcement arm of the judicial branch, with about 3,000 deputy U.S. Marshals.

Section 2. The citizens of each state shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of citizens in the several states.

"each state" is non-confederate, foreign territories

"several states" is the confederation

"Several States" is the federation (vacation of the confederation)

There is quite the emphasis between "United States of America" and "United States". "United States" originates to admiralty proceedings, then lays down its sovereignty by drafting a civilian that it may search and seize that person's property. "United States" can't seize a man's property, but a person's property; big difference in venue. All seizures on land, from Admiralty, must go through a district court; and worse, the Writ of Garnishment is served by courts-Marshal proceedings in Admirality. Does it feel like Marshal law yet? Did you know that words can sink the Country (America) under sea-water and let the Admiralty (United States, not United States of America) sends its citizenships unto the sunk territory and use salvage-rights to seize sunk property?

No person held to service or labor in one state, under the laws thereof, escaping into another, shall, in consequence of any law or regulation therein, be discharged from such service or labor, but shall be delivered up on claim of the party to whom such service or labor may be due.

It is known as slavery when no Proof of claim is shown. This proves that a School can be as much of a slave institution than any other. Explain to a mercenary teacher what job security means to them, when the mothers and husbandmen teach their children in the House without "Home-schooling" classification. It is slavery when no Proof of claim is given; back to the beginning, why the people are compelled to contract? I had to buy a Tracphone because 27MHz is not good acceptable as valid communication by civilians. Just getting a Trackphone at least avoids the rights-encroaching provisions, and can prepay for service to a certainty that non-performance can be easily abated for the lack of adhesion contracts (SSN, Licenses, Insurance, et al).

Section 4. The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence.

Title 28, Section 3002
(15) "United States" means--
(A) a Federal corporation;

(By the way, any "code" is evidence of a corporation; it's not plain-english, can't touch the constitution because it never was a party to the people that created the constitution, and code is encryption that is yet to be interpreted. Consider the fraud that a corporation can purport to amend a constitution with code, example 16th amendment is "code")

"United States" isn't even part of the federacy, it is not federal but a *Federal* corporation. Remember, Congress was granted federal powers by the people, and thinks those powers are transferable and assignable. "United States", as instrumentalized by Congress, is no more than a civilian offering goods and services. It moves through the district courts in Washington, District of Columbia, its postal embasy agent U.S.P.S. and qualified process servers. What people don't realize is that "United States of America" is Holder aka Government of District of Columbia and that is where the affidavits need be bracketed to reprove the taxation without representation issues.
