New court documents reveal that authorities plan to search through disgraced Terra (LUNA) founder Do Kwon’s personal emails, social media accounts, financial records, and more.
According to a new court memo, investigators say they will sift through massive amounts of Kwon’s personal data to gather evidence against him.
“The Government anticipates that Rule 16 discovery in this matter will be voluminous, consisting of multiple terabytes of data. The discovery will include the following categories, among others:
Search warrants, related affidavits, and materials seized pursuant to those warrants. Some of those warrants relate to accounts or devices used by Kwon, including his business and personal email accounts, his Twitter account, and four of his electronic devices.”
Other data that prosecutors will look through include the business records of Terra employees, its partners and investors, trading records from crypto exchanges and written recorded public statements made by Kwon.
Kwon, who was recently extradited to the US from Montenegro, is accused of defrauding investors, money laundering and conspiracy related to the multibillion-dollar downfall of the Terra ecosystem and its native tokens, TerraUSD and LUNA.
He was initially arrested in Montenegro in March 2023 after he attempted to board a flight to the United Arab Emirates with a fake Costa Rican passport. He was held in Montenegro until the nation’s highest court ruled that he was to be extradited to the US.
He is also wanted in his homeland of South Korea for similar charges. If convicted, he potentially faces decades in prison.
