Ø He was convicted, but the conviction was thrown out. Therefore he is not guilty. You cannot site a conviction in court as proof of guilt when that same conviction is later voided by the courts. Wait a minute. You act like there was only the one Petrodragon conviction. Did you not read Rossi’s own account? It is pretty hard to whitewash all 56 of his legal troubles with the same brush. Rossi himself admitted that there were 56 prosecutions in all, during those years - mostly for tax fraud, or retrials – of which three from Petro-dragon led to imprisonment, and those three apparently ended with reversal after the fact. So this does not come from Gary Wright but from Rossi. Five of the Italian prosecutions for tax evasion ended with convictions (custody imprisonments) and those were not reversed, and Rossi never claimed they were. OK – you can say that tax crimes are not in the same class, and maybe not, but they are still called “tax fraud” and they were not reversed – so you cannot say that Wiki is wrong about Rossi, despite what they say about LENR. It is probably not a good idea to merge the two.
