Bilfinger Thread
B O’s notes (see pic):
Bilfinger
NPA gment (NPA agreement) on German Co that owes $
An NPA or Non Prosecution Agreement is agreement w/ DOJ to stop litigation
A DPA, Deferred Prosecution Agreement, halts it w/ an “arrangement”
(*see Yates Memo below #11)

Bilfinger found there were claims of FIFA bribes out of Oman.

From what I could find, and it wasn’t much, the man in charge of Oman for Bilfinger completely disappeared.

The ‘head of investigations’, who was hired for compliance with DPR, was Maria Alix von Sachsen-Meiningen

On her way to Oman she stopped in Abu Dhabi to meet with colleague. This individual served her tea which she believes was poisoned, as she was extremely ill & hallucinating for three days.
She never made it to Oman and was fired in early March 2017. http://Archive.is/3coiv

Meiningen had hired Steel/Orbis to “investigate” for Bilfinger at some point in 2016, in relation to the compliance with DOJ for the DPA (self reporting - Yates Memo) in Nigerian bribery case.
I found this here http://Archive.is/NLTNa 

But could not find confirmation until...

For those not interested in looking through all of that, here is a screenshot with pertinent section highlighted.

So Orh’s notes imply they will use a German Co (likely that needs) NPA that owes a lot of 💰.
He names Bilfinger.
Bilfinger is connected to Steel - paying him (or they are supposed to be paying him) to investigate as part of compliance w/ USDOJ DPA.

Interestingly enough on Dec 9th 2018 Bilfinger put put a press release stating that they had concluded their DPA with DOJ.

This is how the DOJ/shady IC leverage companies, whom the DOJ put in impossible position (Yates Memo), to pay for nefarious activities so the companies can get out of an impossible legal peril with US DOJ.

The Yates Memo is impossible to comply with. It gives the DOJ way too much power.
How dirty is Yates? 🤔

As per http://www.swlaw.com/blog/white-collar-defense/2016/07/15/the-yates-memo-ten-months-later-what-we-know-and-what-to-do/
The Yates Memo in 2015 made significantg changes to DOJ's NPA/DPA's.
"The most striking change dictated by the Yates Memo is the all-or-nothing nature of cooperation credit.

That is, a corporation is now expected to “identify all individuals involved in or responsible for the misconduct at issue . . . and provide to the Department all facts relating to that misconduct.” From now on, given the growing prev

companies will be required to continue this same level of cooperation as a term of any settlement or plea agreement. Indeed, according to Yates," "A company’s failure to continue cooperating against individuals will be considered a material breach of the agreement and

grounds for revocation or stipulated penalties."

demanded by the government. Even if a corporation is only disclosing “facts” to the government in the course of an investigation, it may effectively have to waive the privilege, at least partially."

Rod Rosenstein reversed the Yates Memo Nov 28th 2018.

Interesting that he reversed it when he realized he’d be leaving the DOJ. That power is great if you have control.

*The Yates Memo was key to getting these Co’s to play ball.

Taking a break.
