The day the international tax authorities came knocking

Many of the exhibits in this timeline were obtained during discovery in the winning defamation lawsuit I filed against 60 Minutes Australia, Nine Entertainment, Nick McKenzie, Charlotte Grieve, and Joel Tozer. The documents were compiled during their own investigation of Euro Pacific Bank. Not only did their investigation not support any of their allegations that the bank helped customers launder money and evade taxes, but it revealed the opposite. All of the documents they obtained and witnesses they spoke with exonerated the bank.
Therefore, in order to falsely accuse me and the bank of crimes their own investigation proved were not committed, they had to lie about their own investigation, falsify their own evidence, and misrepresent what their own witness said. Their own evidence proves that the 60 Minutes broadcast and Age article were not only defamatory, but outright fraud. They were not just mistaken in their belief that the bank facilitated tax evasion and money laundering. They knew for a fact that it did neither, but deliberately deceived the public into believing the opposite of what they knew to be true. There is no better example of fake news.
I have also included the heavily redacted emails produced by the IRS in response to my FOIA requests that provide irrefutable proof that my bank was shut down due solely to an IRS-coordinated conspiracy involving OCIF and the Puerto Rican government to advance the public-relations objectives of the IRS and J5, not for any legitimate regulatory purpose. Key to their plan was getting the media to falsely report that the bank was shut down for facilitating tax evasion and money laundering and to credit the IRS and J5 the shutdown to showcase their crime-fighting abilities, despite the fact that their own investigation revealed that no crimes of any kind were committed by the bank.
