Mark Scott’s OneCoin sentencing delayed till April 2020


Sadly the sentencing of OneCoin cash launderer Mark Scott has been pushed again, once more.

On the conclusion of Scott’s trial, at which he was discovered responsible, sentenching was scheduled for February twenty first.

That was then delayed until someday after February twenty fourth.

On the request of Mark Scott’s lawyer on January 14th, sentencing has been pushed again now until April twenty first.

The rationale for the delay is

time to finish briefing on post-trial motions and supply the Courtroom with a chance for assessment.

Primarily based on Scott’s request, it seems he’s going to attempt to use medical points to cut back his sentence.

As well as, this extra time will allow counsel to arrange for sentencing, together with permitting for Mr. Scott to undertake additional testing and coverings for longstanding medical points.

Humorous how medical points didn’t cease Scott (proper) from laundering a whole bunch of hundreds of thousands for OneCoin. However when the time involves take duty…

Oh noes, impulsively I’m a medical basket case and spending time in jail is gonna kill me!

The deadline for the DOJ to reply to no matter nonsense Scott comes up with is February twenty fourth, in order that’ll most likely be across the time of our subsequent replace.

Failing which, Scott’s sentencing is on April twenty first.
