Mars Finance reports that, according to a post by Amanda Tuminelli, Chief Legal Officer of the DeFi Education Fund, the U.S. Department of Justice has decided to re-try Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm this fall. In the previous trial, the jury failed to reach a consensus on money laundering and sanctions violation charges, only convicting him of operating an unlicensed remittance business. Despite clear errors by the prosecution in the first trial, including summoning irrelevant witnesses, failing to understand the forensic analysis of blockchain evidence, and legal and logical flaws in the third-party developer responsibility charges, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York has decided to re-try the first and third counts of the indictment.
