Hacker Invoices Justice Department for Time in Prison, Refuses to Accept U.S. Dollars

Thus I was taken from Arkansas, the nicest place I ever lived, and brought to Newark, New Jersey, a place worse than any of the many third world countries I have visited. I was held under bail conditions where the government refused to allow me to work in my industry, told me where I could live (I was not allowed to return to my birthplace of Arkansas where I lived at no expense, and instead forced to pay rent in New Jersey), and was subject to the indignity and expense of regular mandatory travel to the Newark courthouse to urinate in front of a federal employee. I was told where I could travel, and where and how I could sleep. My time and life was completely monopolized by the federal government during this period, again based off false statements from a lying piece of shit in the federal government…

My current market-determined hourly rate is 1 Bitcoin an hour. I was taken from my childhood home at gunpoint on January 18th, 2011, and I was not allowed to freely exercise my liberties as a citizen until April 11th, 2014. That’s 1179 days that you used my time that I am now billing you for (I gave you a discount by not including the last day). I am owed 28,296 Bitcoins. I do not accept United States dollars, as it is the preferred currency of criminal organizations such as the FBI, DOJ, ATF, and Federal Reserve and I do not assist criminal racketeering enterprises.

– Andrew “Weev” Auernheimer in his “Open letter to members of the New Jersey District Court, FBI, and DOJ consisting of an invoice for services rendered.”  

I first brought the controversial hacker and troll “Weev” to your attention in my post: Hacker “Weev” is Released from Prison, Starts Hedge Fund Called TRO LLC, Appears on CNBC. I strongly suggest checking that post out before reading on.

Ever since being released from prison, Weev has seemingly and wisely turned his trolling skills on those aspects of U.S. society that are the most corrupt and cancerous. Namely Wall Street and the Federal Government. His latest action consists of a scathing letter to members of the “justice system” that imprisoned him, and some excerpts from the letter represent moments of sheer trolling genius.

Not only does he invoice the government for $13.2 million, but he refuses to accept U.S. dollars (more accurately Federal Reserve Notes, but whatever), and instead asks for payment in 28,296 Bitcoins. Simply epic. The full letter can be read below:

Open letter to federal scum

I just emailed this to the federal government and bcc’d 200 or so people:

Subject: “An open letter to members of the New Jersey District Court, FBI, and DOJ consisting of an invoice for services rendered.”

To the Honorable Susan D. Wigenton, US Attorney Paul J. Fishman, Assistant US Attorney Zach Intrater, and FBI Special Agent Christian Schorle,

“Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing end them?” -Shakespeare

It has long been one of the fundamental pillars of our system of law that when one commits a crime against another, they are made to give restitution to their victims.

I have, over the course of 3 years, been made the victim of a criminal conspiracy by those in the federal government. This was a conspiracy of sedition and treason, perpetrated with violence by a limited number of federal agents to deprive me of my constitutional rights to a fair trial and unlawfully put me in prison. This is not a hallucination on my part. These claims were in fact verified by the Third Circuit Court of Appeals when they vacated the false judgement against me imposed by the court of Judge Susan D. Wigenton. Perhaps you haven’t read the opinion of the appeals court exposing all of you as liars and seditionists yet. If so, here you go: https://www.eff.org/files/2014/04/11/weev.pdf

On January 18th, 2011 I was kidnapped at gunpoint by the US Marshals from Fayetteville, Arkansas, the town where I was born, based off a criminal complaint based on complete falsehoods written by FBI Special Agent Christian Schorle. The complaint alleged I had broken into AT&T’s servers (I hadn’t, as confirmed by the appeals court which verified no evidence was presented that any of my accesses bypassed security restrictions) and that New Jersey was the jurisdiction because AT&T was headquartered there. In actuality, AT&T was headquartered at the time in Houston, Texas. This sort of blatant falsehood is verifiable by a simple Google search.

Thus I was taken from Arkansas, the nicest place I ever lived, and brought to Newark, New Jersey, a place worse than any of the many third world countries I have visited. I was held under bail conditions where the government refused to allow me to work in my industry, told me where I could live (I was not allowed to return to my birthplace of Arkansas where I lived at no expense, and instead forced to pay rent in New Jersey), and was subject to the indignity and expense of regular mandatory travel to the Newark courthouse to urinate in front of a federal employee. I was told where I could travel, and where and how I could sleep. My time and life was completely monopolized by the federal government during this period, again based off false statements from a lying piece of shit in the federal government.

I then spent a swath of the next years struggling to find an attorney because the overworked federal defender I was given told me to plea to false charges because even if I was innocent there was no way I’d win. I then struggled to get this attorney enough resources to fight the case while he was struggling to keep the lights in his office on.

Going to trial two years later, the United States Attorneys and FBI repeatedly perjured themselves in order to wrongfully convict me. FBI Special Agent Phillip Frigm claimed that the manufactured evidence was “secured” by MD5 signatures. This was factually wrong and perjurously asserted as true under oath– MD5 signatures do not work in the manner he implied. Assistant US Attorney Michael Martinez claimed that I committed a crime because my use of the Internet was “not like going to ESPN and checking my favorite sports team’s scores”, and Assistant US Attorney Zach Intrater claimed that I had committed a crime because I automated web requests with a script. This, of course, ignores the fact that the vast majority of web requests are programmatic and automated– total API requests and automated GET per year are approaching the quadrillions. Lie after lie after lie stacked up in open court on behalf of the agents of the government. If there was any integrity left in the justice system there would be special prosecutors appointed to charge you with the perjuries you committed.

Orchestrating this circus was the judge, Susan D. Wigenton, who not only ignored my constitutional right to a trial in a reasonable location but blatantly allowed manufactured evidence and perjury on the part of FBI and DOJ employees in her courtroom. The rights I have enumerated in the Constitution (and, in some cases, even The Declaration) were violated with near completion.

At sentencing, I made the following statement to Judge Wigenton:

“I don’t come here today to ask for forgiveness. I’m here to tell this court, if it has any foresight at all, that it should be thinking about what it can do to make amends to me for the harm and the violence that has been inflicted upon my life.”

It is time, now that the fraud and violence committed against me has been exposed by the appeals process, to begin making amends to me for the harm her court has done.

I do not accept United States dollars, as it is the preferred currency of criminal organizations such as the FBI, DOJ, ATF, and Federal Reserve and I do not assist criminal racketeering enterprises.

Know that all this wealth will be directed towards a good and charitable cause. I am building a series of memorial groves for the greatest patriots of our generation: Timothy McVeigh, Andrew Stack, and Marvin Heemeyer. You see, In the “Special Housing Unit”, which is Bureau of Prisons codespeak for “solitary confinement” and “torture”, I had enough time to think about the current state of federal government.

The federal government has declared war on We the People. I am but the latest casualty of the unjust and seditious war being waged against honest Americans and defenders of the Constitution. At Waco the FBI directed the murder of 76 men, women, and children. At Ruby Ridge the FBI murdered both a 14-year-old boy and a woman cradling her infant child. All federal agents are, in fact, murderous thugs and seditious terrorists. Sedition is the charge for crimes which undermine the Constitution with violence. I can assure you that violence was used against me, and the Third Circuit Court of Appeals has already verified that the case against me undermined the Constitution.

28,296 Bitcoins. This is my invoice. It will only come once. As government criminality continues to be exposed on a daily basis, there is an urgent question which our government must answer: by what civil and peaceful means can those of us harmed by government perjury, fraud, and violence be compensated for the losses we have experienced? My Bitcoin address: 1JTeYcsx37XTq5NRgjepAHDqaLHTZUL88a

Now the government’s answer, or lack of it, will be permanently preserved in the Bitcoin block chain as a matter of public record. PAY ME MY MONEY, YOU LYING SUBHUMAN GARBAGE. You also should resign from your posts, as you’ve shown yourselves to be collective disgraces to rule of law and enemies of the United States Constitution. Those of us who actually love this country should take your places.

The war/civil unrest cycle continues to move forward. 

In Liberty,

  1. Invoices take precedence over war, remember?

    CF “US Commercial Code”

    Put another way, Weev has found a way to disempower the tools without a war or destroying the U.S. to make it happen. By putting it all into the international currency markets, he’s made it effectively unkillable, too. One thing you can be sure of is that all ‘leaders’ will protect is their own retirement.

    Of course should a court rule in favor (ANY court) the precedent will be set, won’t it? And which officer *really* wants to step up and defend obvious color-of-law violations?

    The reason it will work is human nature: people who *aren’t* on the take in the structure will have a new and powerful weapon to destroy the ones who are. Military coups become the danger if an all out blood-letting occurs behind closed doors.

    “Troll” is certainly a mild adjective, isn’t it?

  2. weev is a sideshow. there are literally millions of victims in the system. victimized far worse than weev. i’ve spoken to them directly on the streets. they are not all particularly eloquent, some even half dumbed, or worse.

    weev is an attractive hero for the aaron swartz worshiping types. he’s a skilled and well spoken oung man who is anti-establishment.

    there are weev’s everywhere. and that this guy has some internet notoriety makes him an icon? what can ‘weev’ do? is he going to fight the government using the internet?

    seems like that is either not his forte or now that he’s outta jail he’s sincerely more interested in getting involved in wall street.

    if he wanted to walk the walk of his talk, or if he were perhaps a bit more paranoid, hed’ snowden himself to a safer spot like germany or russia and join an expat community that could help support. him.

    sitting where he is, pursuing what he’s pursuing. he’s either not that important, or he’s a sitting duck asking for quack quack.

    ive watched all the videos i coudl find of his from way back.

    he strikes me as a more intelligent and eloquent , and perhaps skilled, version of “adam versus the man” adam kokesh .

    maybe not such a self involved disc jockey type, but similar in mouthage.
    its nice to see these folks, assuming they are who they say they , speaking some truth to power. but they do not inspire me.

    and requesting restitution in bitcoin does not a hero make.

    • And while you’re talking smack, relating your summary judgement based on nothing, he’s doing something that might actually be effective to start bankrupting the cronies.

      Ever seen “Trading Places?”

      Nobody owns the price of a corporation.

      Keep crowing, and watch the stock price of TRO

    • People seem to think I am celebrating “Weev” as a person just because I reposted this letter. Weev is an important figure in the resistance movement and will increasingly play that role going forward. Thus, imo it is important to follow his activities.

      Furthermore, as I said, some of his commentary was genius. Look at how big this story got in the media, he achieved his goals. Also, remember he is a self-described “troll” meaning he intentionally will say offensive and absurd things he might not necessarily agree with to both piss people off and get attention. I’m not saying I agree with these methods or would use them myself, I’m just saying we need to take some of what he says with a gigantic grain of salt.

      Best,
      Michael Krieger

    • I think the point he was making with the “memorial grove” statement was he admires people who seem to be pissed off at various authorities. He counts himself as another one. At least 2 of the 3 were. McVeigh was an obvious covert gov. agent.

    • I don’t have time for a movie.

      For future reference, if you can’t spell it out in a paragraph or so, that means it *isn’t* obvious.
