The story of the British billionaire boat Mike Lynch drowns

The court issued a devastating ruling in January 2022. In a 1700 -page resolution, the judge found that Lynch was “familiar with the dangers in accounting practices of autonomy” and was “involved in an unsuccessful manner in the manipulation of accounts.” Metal accounting practices were not aggressive. The judge concluded a deliberate plan for their misleading. American public prosecutors, who were waiting for UK procedures now concluded the ammunition they needed. Delivery procedures, already in movement, gained momentum.

Sixth. Against all difficulties

Forced travel Lynch To the United States in May 2023 the beginning of an extraordinary ordeal was marked. Federal public prosecutors in San Francisco accused him of an indictment from 16 points that included a plot to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, securities fraud, and conspiracy. If he is convicted of all charges, the 57-year-old faces up to 25 years in prison-a life sentence.

Although the American public prosecutors who promised the English Court that Lynch will not be imprisoned in the trial, Judge Charles Prayer immediately sent him to prison upon his arrival. “Perhaps this was the lowest moment.” It ended in prison for only one day, after publishing a bond of $ 100 million. Mathematics has become Linch’s obsession. “What are the difficulties?” He was constantly asking his friends and lawyers, especially Winjartin, who found it mad. “It was the most stupid question ever,” he remembered later. “There are many variables.” At the same time, the real curiosity of Lynch respected – “There was nothing that he did not know or did not want to know about it,” from astronomical physics to politics, culture, music and even American baseball.

The trial started in March 2024, where Lynch joined the former Vice President of Stephen Chamberlain as Kodfal. From the beginning, it was clear that the Lynch team was easier. Hussein taught them to condemn the playing book for public prosecutors, and they had years to prepare a new defense. Every night, Lynch and his legal team will provide who will be attended by the claim the next day. They also rented the “shadow jury” – the Parman man and the writer who are paid to sit throughout the 11th week of procedures and record independent impressions.

Most of the defendants with white collar remain silent. Lynch insisted on taking the situation. He presented himself as a accompanying British businessman who had been victims of the inefficiency of American companies. The jury walked through his working class background and academic achievements. When general prosecutors pressed him in specific transactions, it skillfully deviated – these matters were for the financing team, it focused on technology and strategy.

One of the most effective moments came when Lynch described the experience with HP. The jury said, “I saw them take this beautiful company and put it only.”

The ruling came on June 6, 2024. While the jury read “not guilty” for all the remaining charges, Lynch cried. And so did his wife. Chamberlain has also been acquitted of all charges. Speaking to reporters at a later time, Lynch reflected what she was carrying: “He is strange, but now you have a second life.” “The question is, what do you want to do with it?”

Seventh. Celebration

As part of The recovery process, Linch Long Summer Plan on board BayziFull of friends and celebration. For a specific picnic in August, he called along everyone who stayed near him during the darkest period of his life. Christopher Morvilo, the Clecord Cance partner who helped Qorterbbeck in the American legal strategy, was there with his wife Nida. Jonathan Bloomer, CEO of Organ Stanley, who worked as a personal witness, was invited with his wife Judy.

The same yacht was a 56 -meter sailing ship with a dark blue body and a simple Japanese interior, referred to later by The Times of London as a “engineering and back masterpiece”. The name of the original yacht was regards; Lynch reformulate it Bayzi. The ship was great, but also anomaly: it had a single aluminum mast.

The following account is extracted from official investigation reports, videos, photos and persons familiar with the crew accounts and survivors. The sailing of August was planned as a leisurely tour in the northern coast in Sicily and the Ayolian Islands. The group started at Milazzo, then she spent four days exploring the volcanic archipelago. They established the insulation de Volcano one day for a few hours to see the active hole glow against the sky, visited Banaria, and enjoyed pure water around Datillo. It was exactly the kind of the comfortable and meteli celebration that Lynch imagined. He was also sent to Hana, the ambitious poet. The two liked to wander around meals, arguing about policy and global events, as Lynch played contradictory.

At the end of this week, Lynch received two destroyed calls from Andy Kanter about Stephen Chamberlain, which is useful for him in autonomy. Lynch answered in the first call, on Saturday, with Marhaba Al-Saida-with the killing and audible joy in the background-before Kanter was what was called “News News”: Chamberlain, a middle-aged football fan and a thirsty and a thirsty, a car during running and suffered a head injury. By Sunday call, the news was worse: the hospital was extinguishing life support. The group on board Bayzi The Chamberlain candle in the church lit up in Civalu.
