Vincent McCrudden Is Sorry For Threatening To Kill 47 US Regulators

By

“I had no intent to injury or bodily harm anybody,” Vincent McCrudden told a judge today after pleading guilty to emailing a bunch of regulators describing them as “fucking corrupt piece[s] of shit!” letting them know that they were “not getting away with this,” encouraging them to “laugh mother fucker laugh,” and making it clear that “it wasn’t ever a question of ‘if’ I was going to kill you, it was just of when.” McCrudden, who also had an “execution” list on his website and encouraged people to help him cross the 47 names off the list, added that he “apologized” and was sorry for “any apprehension [the threats] may have caused” his targets and their families. Having said that, McC noted that he’d been “upset” about a suit against him by the CFTC and never actually “intended to injury or bodily harm anybody. [BW, earlier]

    I believe they should let him go. One can clearly not conclude from publicly available information that he actually threatened to kill them. Maybe an “execution list” was just code for something else When will these regulators actually understand the “Mosaic Theory?”nn-Raj

    There is reasonable doubt here. Look up a photo of Vinny. The guy looks like the Dean of students at a New England Prep School. Deans are about hard as a moonwalk at a kindergartner’s birthday. No way this guy could hurt anyone unless he was critiquing their lack of Harris Tweed.
