Status notice: Named subjects (persons and organizations) of federal criminal-enforcement actions, extracted from U.S. Department of Justice press releases (ADR-060). A charged or indicted defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty — those records are ALLEGATIONS, never designations and never proof of guilt; adjudicated dispositions (guilty plea, conviction, sentencing) state the DOJ's account, sourced to the press release. Extracted by automated precision-first processing of the DOJ feed; entities are matched to the sourcing release.
