In a separate unreported decision available on the 9th Circuit's website, the Circuit affirmed Hinkson's convictions for tax evasion and money laundering.

Whoa. That's huge.

And really really timely. I spent more than ten hours this week doing some research on Hinkson's case and didn't have a clue this was coming.
