The finding
What the evidence shows
DOJ confirms two BMW Alpinas and 30 forfeited watches, many Rolexes, in a roughly $194 million fraud. Its announcement does not confirm the $1.8 million charter-flight amount. The luxury purchases are supported; the stated total loss is low and the flight figure remains unverified here.
