We did it. @carloswatson is not going to prison today. First and foremost, thank God for His grace, mercy and the power of redemption. A very special note of appreciation to @AliceMarieFree. Your advocacy, compassion, and relentless pursuit of fairness have made this moment…
There’s a BEAST in the @realDonaldTrump White House Named Ms. @AliceMarieFree: Bold. Empowering. Advocate. Seeking. Transformation. "She saved the life and family of @carloswatson. She has saved countless others. She is straight Harriet Tubman 2.0, navigating the underground…
The song that rises when injustice meets compassion. Thank you @POTUS and Pardon Czar, @AliceMarieFree 🙏. Our family is forever grateful for the clemency for our brother @carloswatson and his media company, @ozy. Thank you for righting this wrong! @glennEmartin @
@AdamSchefter What is going to happen in 10 years when @semaforben admits he made up lie after lie to destroy @carloswatson and @ozy because he could not buy them out and did not want them to go public instead of @BuzzFeed because he would have lost out on a $23.4M payday? Who will apologize…
@ozy wasn’t a fraud. It was a multi-platform media company with an Emmy, Pulitzer submissions, and blue-chip advertisers. The case against @carloswatson is pure fiction. Link: variety.com/2020/tv/news/o…
Judge Komitee’s post-trial order in the @carloswatson trial reads like a personal defense brief. 50+ pages Extensive section to explain away his own bias Paragraphs defending his multi-million dollar financial conflicts Why the overkill? I spent time in his court. I’ll tell you…
The media smeared @carloswatson—but NEVER mentioned that @semaforben, when he was at @BuzzFeed, was desperate to buy @ozy and then went on to the @nytimes to write a series of hit pieces that led to Carlos being sentenced to 10 years in prison. Why? Because it destroys their…
DOJ’s weaponization of "conspiracy" charges is a fuckin' rigged game. It's a vague, malleable charge that stripped @carloswatson of any chance at a fair defense. An unproven claim from a cooperating witness is enough to secure a conviction. Pure lawfare. baystatebanner.com/2023/07/13/the…
Samir Rao, @carloswatson's cofounder confessed—IN WRITING—that he acted alone. So why is Watson being punished for Samir's actions? This entire case would be laughable if it didn't result in ten years in prison and a fine of $100m. Link: drive.google.com/file/d/1UpBma_…
Jury instructions from Judge Komitee in @carloswatson’s trial made intent irrelevant. Even if he acted in good faith, he could be convicted. That’s not law—that’s entrapment. All of this triggered by @semaforben, a good ole Biden-lovin’ Brooklyn progressive who got angry bcuz…
NYC Judge Eric Komitee has tens of millions invested in the companies labeled as "victims" of a conspiracy to commit fraud, but he decides the amount of restitution? Was @carloswatson’s trial rigged from the start? @realDonaldTrump says it lawfare. Visit: frankreport.com/2025/01/13/car…
Read: @carloswatson’s Trial Exposed: Was It Rigged from the Start? frankreport.com/2025/01/13/car…
How can someone invest $20 million of their family's money into a company, be found guilty of fraud, and get 10 years in prison—when no cash was stolen? That’s @carloswatson’s story. And Judge Eric Komitee wants us to believe this was a fair trial. Link: drive.google.com/file/d/17HQbaQ…
The same guy who pushed the fake Steele dossier against @realDonaldTrump also led the hit job on @carloswatson and @ozy—none other than @semaforben of @semafor (formerly @BuzzFeed & @nytimes). Ben couldn’t handle a Black entrepreneur telling him to fuck off. So what did he do?…
I sat in on @carloswatson’s sentencing yesterday at the EDNY. Prosecutors and Judge Komitee BLOCKED Watson’s defense from presenting critical evidence. How do you convict someone and sentence them to ten years without allowing their side to be heard? This case is a disgrace.l and…
If @carloswatson had taken @BuzzFeed’s $300M buyout, would he be going to prison for 10 years and facing $100m in forfeiture and restitution? Fuck no. Carlos was a threat to the status quo. They wanted him controlled or discredited. Read more: drive.google.com/file/d/1UZvnNS…
30 witnesses ready to defend @carloswatson. Judge Eric Komitee allowed 3. 781 pieces of evidence. Less than 5% admitted. That’s not a trial—that’s a takedown by @semaforben of @semafor and his colleagues. Link: drive.google.com/file/d/1TWlG0D…
@carloswatson's judge had financial ties to companies central to his case. How is that fair? The system punished Watson for being a disruptor while ignoring its own conflicts. This isn’t justice—it’s corruption. Link: frankreport.com/2024/11/08/jud…
2019: BuzzFeed was desperate. @semaforben praised OZY as “the solution” to their struggles and offered $300M. Carlos Watson said no. Then the narrative flipped—Watson went from “visionary” to “target.” From possible "pet" to potential "threat." When Black founders say no,…
