“The idea that a business contracting with another business can be rendered a criminal simply because the other party didn’t read the contract is not the law.

I cannot see how a crime was committed. I do not understand how this prosecution was allowed.”

Professor Alan Dershowitz

“I believe that his conviction constitutes a miscarriage of justice for two reasons: first and foremost, evidence I have reviewed does not prove a crime or criminal intent. It is, at bottom, a business dispute that should have been resolved in civil court; second his lawyers have alleged prosecutorial misconduct that raised serious concerns about the integrity of the process by which he was convicted.”
