Title: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted? Post by: Topazan on March 13, 2014, 07:02:48 AM (If this is in the wrong forum please move.)
I know he was facing SEC charges, but I can't find any information about the trial. Anyone know what happened? Title: Re: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted?

Title: Re: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted? Post by: Topazan on March 14, 2014, 03:59:35 AM I'm sorry I overlooked one thread out of this entire massive sub-forum of which I am not a regular. Besides, how was I supposed to know there would be news recently after months and months of silence?
Patronizing lecture aside, I appreciate the help. Thanks. Title: Re: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted? Post by: Clobered09 on March 14, 2014, 05:51:02 AM Shavers was never charged criminally, so he can't be convicted.
Title: Re: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted? Post by: Topazan on March 14, 2014, 06:42:02 AM Yeah, I was surprised to see it was a civil case. Anyone know why he wasn't charged with fraud?

Another tip, then: if you hit ctrl-f in the browser and search for trendon or pirate you'll find it on the first or second page in seconds.Title: Re: Was Trendon Shavers ever convicted? Post by: Topazan on March 14, 2014, 09:23:51 AM I had no reason to believe there would be anything about him on the first or second page. This is an event that happened almost a year ago, and there has been very little news since. It was an odd coincidence that something finally came out recently.
