“BH Group sold some $23.8 million of the currency known as dinar between 2010 and 2011. Prosecutors alleged the group made false claims about the potential value of the dinar and portrayed a former member of the group, Rudolph Coenen, as a decorated Marine wounded in Iraq, among other falsehoods. ‘The IRS put together a great case. They worked very hard on it,’ Gene Crawford, an assistant U.S. attorney and lead prosecutor on the case, said after the verdicts were read. He said the men could face a maximum of 20 years. ‘We will certainly be asking for lengthy prison sentences,’ Mr. Crawford said.”
