How Sergei Magnitsky Uncovered a $230 Million Tax Fraud I Investigators

Sergei Magnitsky was a tax advisor tasked with investigating an audacious crime of fraud in Russia. What he discovered went all the way to the highest levels of the Kremlin and implicated police and officials in the biggest tax fraud case in Russian history involving $230 million. And the cost of this discovery was his life.
Magnitsky worked for Jamison Firestone and his legal company Firestone Duncan, who advised Bill Browder and his US investment fund Hermitage Capital. In 2008, both companies were raided by interior minister officials who seized the documents and corporate seals.
Soon after, the ownership of Hermitage Capital mysteriously changed into the hands of an organised crime group, and an illegal $230 million dollar tax rebate was issued. Bill and Jamison asked Sergei Magnitsky to find out what was really going on.
When he discovered the scale of corruption and reported it, those he accused had him thrown in jail. After a year of living in horrendous conditions and being denied medical care, Magnitsky was murdered. In the wake of his death, Bill Browder and Jamison Firestone have dedicated their lives to seeking Justice for Sergei and retelling his story

When thers's systematic corruption only things break. So many brilliant people from Russia and when you have a sorry state and rampant corruption, no real change for climate and humanity could be bought about. I also belive writing won't chnage anything as these goons will only deny the claims posted against them. But awakened people like us must not forget the contributions of such brave people.

Browder has two nine year convictions for tax fraud and third pending for 2007 treasury theft. This is propaganda by Vice and two crooks Firestone and Browder.

    I'd love to see Vice tackle similar subjects like this one. Videos the teach a sense of justice, integrity, ethics and leadership. Justice is a strange thing, if you're not exposed to it.

    Just recently read the book on a family members recommendation. Great to see that Browder is still going strong, that more countries have followed suit against the Russians, and even better to see that he's still alive.
