| Abstract: |
A federal grand jury on Feb. 4 indicted Anderson on 42 counts for the alleged scheme — one of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, 12 of wire fraud, 12 of monetary transactions to promote unlawful activity and 17 of monetary transactions in criminally derived property. Anderson on Feb. 14 pleaded not guilty to the charges. If convicted, Anderson could face prison time and could be forced to forfeit any property related to the offenses, as well as more than $27 million. U.S. Magistrate Judge Daneta Wollmann ordered Anderson released from jail pending future court proceedings, with mostly standard conditions of release. Anderson is not allowed contact with people who may be witnesses, co-defendants or victims in the case, but Wollmann ordered Anderson can have “non-case related contact with his wife,” Aimee. |
