Here, if not for allegations of fraud against BW's father's estate and the report by the finance department of financial ommissions by BW coming to the attention of the federal Judge overseeing the wire fraud/art con, BW's
gift sentence of 30+ months time served on home confinement (since BW's bail release in May 2108), three years supervised release, $475K restitution to his victims, and $220K money judgment forfeiture, would have been imposed in October 2021, pursuant to a plea agreement dated April 2021. Instead, during the sentencing hearing, reasons for the sentence were recited into the record, and imposition of the sentence was delayed.
At the rescheduled June 2022 sentencing, the now apparent perjury by BW about his financial condition, the need for an evidentiary hearing for the probate matter, and the court not wanting to compromise the ongoing investigation on fraud against the estate, imposition of BW's sentence was delayed and remains pending.
I think it's more likely Ana begged her mother to come to the US within days of going missing because she intended to take the boys with her to DC following Christmas, and needed her immediate help to do so.
In addition to new perjury charges in the federal case, I think Ana believed an indictment and arrest were about to come down for BW's fraud against his dad's estate, and this time, there would be no avoiding jail. Committing a felony while out on bail is a very serious matter!
Putting all the pieces together, I'm appalled at the con BW pulled over the Court and the parties in his federal case-- BW's absolutely shameless.
And I can't even let my mind go to the murder of Ana... It's too much.
