Keonne Rodriguez said on social media that he will report to prison on Friday to begin his five-year sentence for operating an illegal money transmitter.
Keonne Rodriguez, who pleaded guilty to one felony count related to his role at Samourai Wallet, is calling on US President Donald Trump to pardon him, citing similar language that has been successful in previous pardon applications.
In a Thursday X post, Rodriguez said he would report to prison on Friday, where he will serve a five-year sentence for operating an illegal money transmitter. The Samourai co-founder claimed there were no āvictimsā to his crime, and blamed his incarceration on ālawfare perpetrated by a weaponized Biden DOJ.āĀ
In a message tagging Trump, Rodriguez expressed hope that the US president would issue a federal pardon for him and William āBillā Lonergan Hill, another Samourai executive who pleaded guilty and was sentenced to four years. Rodriguez blamed āactivist judgesā for his legal troubles, claiming he was targeted by a āpolitical anti-innovation agenda.ā
