Spotlight: Bradley Birkenfeld
"Defendant Birkenfeld['s]... substantial assistance has been timely, significant, useful, truthful, complete and reliable." (Department of Justice, August 18, 2009). The DOJ also admitted that "but for Mr. Birkenfeld [the UBS] scheme would not have been discovered by the U.S. government." Bradley Birkenfeld commenced serving a three-year and four-month sentence in federal prison on January 8, 2010, a direct result of blowing the whistle on one of the largest tax fraud schemes in U.S. history.
Bradley Birkenfeld filed his official clemency petition on Tax Day, April 15th. Your support is urgently needed! Take action by clicking here.
