William Browder was one. He's locked horns with the Russian lawyer at the heart of the Donald Trump Jr. email scandal. Our next guest, Bill Browder, knows quite a bit about the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr. last year, a lawyer Trump says offered dirt on Hillary Clinton through an intermediary. Here's Browder's story.
He was a hedge fund manager in Russia, where he made a lot of money but also learned a lot about corruption. In 2008, his lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, uncovered a $230 million corruption scheme by a number of Russian officials. Magnitsky was arrested, jailed for almost a year and died in custody.
Magnitsky was arrested, jailed for almost a year and died in custody. Browder says he was beaten to death. The Russian government says he died of a heart attack. Browder then pushed the U.S. Congress to pass something called the Magnitsky Act.
Magnitsky was a Russian lawyer and auditor who in 2007 and 2008 uncovered an alleged vast corruption scheme involving about $230 million, according to a federal indictment by the U.S. Southern District of New York in 2013. The alleged tax fraud scheme came at the expense of an investment firm, Hermitage Capital, owned by an American investor, Bill Browder, according to the U.S. indictment.
Donald Trump Jr. reportedly received an email indicating information to be revealed in a meeting with a Russian lawyer was part of a Russian government effort to help his dad's campaign, according to The New York Times.
