Written by The director of operations for the Forseti Group, a company that advertised itself as a private security firm in 2004, said he doesn’t know anyone named David Quinn and has never worked with the U.S. Marshals Service.
Rodney Price e-mailed the Monitor this week after a man who identified himself as Quinn and said he worked for the Forseti Group called the lawyer of Plainfield tax protester Ed Brown and said he’d been involved in Brown’s apprehension.
Ed Brown and his wife, Elaine, were found guilty of 11 federal felonies this month in connection with a nearly nine-month standoff with federal agents. The man calling himself Quinn told the Browns’ lawyers that trial testimony had been inaccurate and that he had information that could have helped the couple’s defense. Both lawyers have asked the court to review the evidence and order a new trial.
Federal officials have denied any connection with Quinn or the Forseti Group. The judge in the case has scheduled a telephone conference on the matter for later this week. It will not be open to the public.
