“The court document says that Brown never compromised the accounting firm’s computer systems, ‘and falsely stated that he had stolen tax documents for Willard M. Romney and Ann D. Romney for tax years prior to 2010.’ Brown then ‘demanded US$1 million converted to ‘Bitcoin’ and instructed that this sum be deposited in a Bitcoin account for which he provide the account number,’ according to the document, to prevent the release of the documents. The letters were printed not on Brown’s computer but on a friend’s, according to the indictment, as Brown had emailed the person to ask to use their printer, using the excuse that his own printer was out of ink.”
