Key witness, whistleblower
X-v-France.com
I am the key witness, whistleblower, in the major criminal RICO case targeting McDonald’s Corporation and their accomplices for fraud, money laundering, and corruption of foreign officials and magistrates. The European Court of Human Rights approved my request for anonymity (Rules 33 and 47 of the Rules of Court).
Who am I?
On February 16, 2023, I was formally notified that the European Court of Human Rights agreed to accept my request for anonymity. Therefore, I don’t want to talk about me. I want to talk about the crimes McDonald’s Corporation and their accomplices have committed over the years. I want to talk about what the judicial authorities are doing to bring McDonald’s Corporation and its accomplices to justice.
I am currently actively notifying the American authorities. Most of my communications addressed to the FBI can be read on Federal-Bureau-of-Investigation.com/open-letters/ which is a non-official website on the FBI that I created for the purpose of transparency in this unprecedented major crime case.
McDonald’s Corporation has committed one of the biggest fraud in history.
FBI Assistant Director Donald Alway receives by email a first introduction about the criminal RICO case targeting McDonald’s Corporation
I sent an email to Mr. Donald Alway, FBI Assistant Director, regarding the criminal RICO case targeting McDonald’s Corporation. I give him some explanations. I tell him I believe LeBron James should be interrogated to determine whether he knew he was partaking in a criminal RICO enterprise.
