Again one has to wonder if he is trying for a "too incompetent to stand trial / be guilty" defence...

If that's what he's aiming for, it's even dumber than if he thinks he's mounting a straight defence "Too arrogant and rash to play by the rules" is a case for the prosecution, not the defence. People get ruled mentally unfit to stand trial because they can't string sentences together or have the sort of verifiable mental health condition that'll see them institutionalised anyway, not because they're running round breaking other rules Same goes for the my client's background is in trading where in some markets losses are inevitable, and he deeply regrets not having more oversight and understanding of the compliance issues he paid other people to handle defence being a lot more persuasive to a jury if he's not blogging about how the bankruptcy team should have handed the company back to him so he could win all the money back...

  These sorts of actions are making me think he doesnt have millions hidden and stashed away and we are seeing the desperate actions of someone who was worth 10's of billions and now has literally nothing.

  I really wonder with Juries. How many jurors just get confused and rely on "I think he seems honest and confused" rather than evidence and laws...

Hans Reiser already tried and failed. Also the Silk Road guy. Would not recommend.

The master of persuasion is suddenly too incompetent to talk.
