Lev Parnas, once an associate of former President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, will be sentenced Wednesday for pumping foreign money into US elections
Parnas and a co-defendant, Igor Fruman, became briefly known for helping Giuliani investigate Joe Biden in Ukraine, but Parnas also used funds from a Russian, Andrey Muraviev, to distribute to American political candidates that Parnas thought could help with his nascent marijuana business.
"The record before this court shows that Parnas has, for years, lied and swindled and corrupted for his own benefit," prosecutors wrote in a sentencing memorandum."Parnas put himself above this country, his investors, and the public."
