Shame he is not around to glory in this B12 schedule. How many yrs left in jail?

Beasley and Judd ran the ponzi scheme. Only Judd is a member.

Along with several of the people who were marketing it and convincing people to invest 🙁

Were they aware or just dumb and greedy?

Great question that I don't think anyone knows the answer to. I would think dumb/greedy/negligent is probably a given,
