FBI Raids Neighbors House
Posted by: ConcernedNeighbor ()
Date: October 04, 2011 09:33AM

Our next door neighbors house was raided by the FBI this morning. There were at least 12 agents. They were wearing bulletproof gear and bashed down the door.

He seemed like a nice guy. He lived there with his son. He bought the house about two years ago. He spent a ton fixing it up and it took forever. He says he fixes up houses for a living and decided to keep this one.

I've talked to him a couple of times and I looked at the interior before he moved in. It really was beautiful in there.

How do I find out why they raided it? Does the FBI post their actions somewhere? I went to their website and didn't see anyway to search for something like that.

The FBI has mainly been raiding houses in Northern Va for two reasons: Gov contractor fraud and a republican funding campaign scandal.

If only there was some other way to communicate with an office, too bad a Web site is the only technological way we have to communicate over distances. Is anyone working on another way? :(

What is sad is that these guys had to break the law to have their party stopped. They were already scum beforehand:

Federal law was changed to provide Alaska-based corporations with an advantage in Federal contracting. The intended purpose was to provide federal funds to companies that employ native Alaskans. Such accommodations are ridiculous and almost always abused - as this was no exception.

They had a shack in Alaska with a xerox printout of the corporate logo taped to a window...and a large office suite in the Dulles corridor. They are clearly a Virginia-based company pretending to be Alaska-based...and they were not breaking the law because they met the minimum standard.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/09/30/AR2010093007242.html


Fucking ridiculous.

My company routinely includes small subcontractors on bids because they are minority or female-owned...and they typically do almost nothing, other than cash the checks. Why do we do it? Because govt-issued RFPs require us to do so.

Who are the people who own these companies? The poor and disadvantaged? Fucking hardly. They are living in Great Falls and laughing their way to the bank:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/dc-enclaves-reap-rewards-of-contracting-boom-as-federal-dollars-fuel-wealth/2011/06/27/gIQAWQC5HJ_story.html


...and your tax dollars pay for this "white guilt" tax...and it goes to a select minority elite.

This is fascinating, in the sense like driving by a wreck. you have to look.

I work for a contractor, and no it's not involved in anything like this, in fact the revenue is so much smaller than any of this it is almost laughable.

The thing that struck me after reading the articles and some of the comments to the articles, is the possibility of contracting officers to be complicit in fraud. I have personal knowledge of a situation where a contracting officer (gov employee) awarded contracts without even consulting the agency for whom the contractor would be working. There was no obvious rhyme or reason for it, it was arbitrary. I don't even know who the CO is but I know this happened. Now, these articles make you wonder how and why the various contractors were selected!

When I read through the attached articles I also read some of the comments. In the article it gave the name of a company that is involved, unendibted though, as "Company A". Then in one of the comments someone speculated that Company A might be Agilex that is in Chantilly.

Question is, does anyone know anything about this about Agilex being involved? I have dealt with Agilex in the past and have always thought of them as an ethical company.

Army Corps of Engineers employees arrested in alleged bribery, kickback scheme
By Sam Ford
http://www.wjla.com/articles/2011/10/army-corps-of-engineers-employees-arrested-in-bribery-kickback-scheme-67428.html

(AP, ABC7) - Two employees of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and two others have been arrested in a bribery and kickback scheme.

An indictment unsealed Tuesday includes charges of bribery, conspiracy and unlawful kickbacks.

“This indictment alleges one of the most brazen corruption schemes in the history of federal contracting,” said U.S. Attorney Ronald Machen. “These charges are only the beginning of a far-reaching, steadfast effort.”

Prosecutors say the defendants steered a contract worth $780 million to a favored Virginia-based contractor in exchange for millions of dollars in kickbacks that paid for Rolex watches, Neiman-Marcus clothing, airline tickets, home renovations and other personal expenses.

The two Army Corps employees are Kerry F. Khan, a program manager, and Michael A. Alexander, a program director.

Also charged are Khan's son, Lee A. Khan and Harold F. Babb, the director of contracts for Eyak Technology, a Virginia-based contractor. Khan worked from his home in Alexandria, which stands out because it's so opulent compared to the houses around it.

"It used to look like all the other houses, but they tore it down and built this,” neighbor Eric Cativo said.

The FBI is currently raiding eight locations - seven in Virginia and one in D.C.

Curry Graham, director of public affairs for the Army Corps, said at least one of the Army Corps employees was arrested at work. He confirmed that search warrants were presented at the agency's offices Tuesday, but referred other questions to the Department of Justice.

"We hold our employees to a high standard, and we cooperate with all federal authorities to make sure that we get to the bottom of all these cases and allegations," Graham said.

Agilex doesn't do any work with the Army Corps of Engineers, that I'm aware of. Don't think it's us.

I say that if your company is involved with fraud of this magnitude (or any at all), your company should lose ALL federal contracts immediately....period.

The criminals included Feds on the inside who made this fraud possible. Should we shut down the government as well? Penalize everyone in the government...and the citizens they support? No? Well perhaps it's safe to also assume that if there are a couple of bad eggs on the Fed side that are responsible, the same is probably true on the contracting side.

I work for a very large DOD contractor...and cannot imagine this happening in my company, but if it did, it would not be systemic fraud - it would be one or two thieves who would need to be punished...harshly. Should an entire team of engineers not involved in the fraud and who bust their ass for a different client be thrown out of work because they work in the same company (perhaps not even in the same group, sector, division, or state)...and should their client's project be pushed back years because they need to cancel their contract that was completely unrelated to the fraud...overseen by different people on both sides?

A tad knee jerk don't you think? Fuck, if that did happen, I could get another job tomorrow...but my DoD client would be fucked. We've got 5 million lines of code and ten years of extensive knowledge of their domain. Yeah, someone else is picking that right up and driving on. No mission impact whatsoever. Got it. Your plan rocks. Let's also execute an entire family when one of them commits a crime.

Naive son, naive. No one in any position of influence or power is seriously talking about cutbacks so sweeping that there is even a moderate reduction in contracts or govt jobs. In fact, leading economists keep saying that the one major sector that NEEDS job growth is the govt...to lead the economy into recover.

Either way, I have skills...and a PILE saved. What did you think my wife and I have been doing with our cash....spending it on hookers and blow? lol

Go back to tricking out your Civic junior. If and when the revolution comes, I'll bet my basement (and gun safe) is a tad better stocked then your studio apartment. ;)

Oh trust me, I agree with you.

I'm just saying that if these clowns do what the say we're all gonna be hurtin here, starting with the contractors.

I see some contractors chearing the "tea party" and I'm like "wtf, they think YOU are part of the problem.. YOU are part of the waste they want to eliminate!"

I just don't get it.. No one who works or lives in this area should be in favor of sweeping government cutbacks. Its the ultimate example of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

P.s. Sorry for derailing the thread about khan and company

Whole companies or agencies don't need to be thrown under the bus because of this. Just punish the guilty and fire the negligent who should have been watching out for the fraud.

I think the tragedy is that Kerry Khan got his son involved. And Lee Khan has a young child who will definitely be impacted by this.

He defrauded the government and took advantage of his companies 8(a) status. Yes, families will be impacted and yes it is sad but at the end of the day.... Fraud is Fraud and a company should not be able to continue doing business as if nothing happened. That goes for both Eyaktek, Nova Datacom and any other company that thinks its above the law.

Kudos! I agree. Being that there are plenty of companies that would do the work honestly and not at the expense of others. All the companies involved should lose all their Federal contracts ASAP.

Northern VA seems to be a tick magnet for many companies that want to suck money from the federal government. Falsify information, drum up some lucrative contract with the feds, take the money, and fall away. It helps if one has a native american involved, so the work is secured with minimal investigation.

This doesn't surprise me one bit...

I worked at Nova Datacom last year for about 7 months and left abruptly because of all the fishy stuff going on. I knew something was up when I was expected to receive a bonus and they wanted to give it to me instead as a "reimbursement of business expenses" so they could avoid paying taxes... this kind of thing was actually quite a regular occurrence.

I also remember on several occasions where Ted and a few other execs mentioned how they would get their friends at other companies to write past performances that they could use when bidding on Federal contracts.

I had half a mind to report them back then and I'm just glad they are finally shown for who they truly are... a bunch of scam artists...

They get to keep their jobs and contracts until they're found guilty or some other agency forces them to drop them.

After doing a little research it seems like Nova Datacom's Min Cho was made CEO in 2007 so she could obtain the 8(a) certification. She only joined the company in 2007 and by 2008 they were certified and going after contracts. She is named in 2011 Inc.5000 Top 10 East Asian Entrepreneurs:

Examiner reader tip leads to figure in $20m contracting scandal
By: Scott McCabe
Examiner Staff Writer
http://washingtonexaminer.com/local/2011/10/exmainer-reader-tip-leads-figure-20m-contracting-scandal#ixzz1awqe0teY

.A man connected to what might be the largest federal contracting scam in history originally came to police attention after being arrested on a tip from a reader of The Washington Examiner.

Ferose Kerry Khan, 30, had been on the run for several months last year and was toying with U.S. marshals, calling their office hot line and telling them that he'd turn himself in when he was ready. He was wanted on charges of felony drug trafficking, attempted bribery of a law enforcement officer and impersonating a police officer.

Marshals caught up to Khan after an Examiner reader saw his story and mugshot and called in a tip.

Authorities said Khan threatened his family members, saying he's exposing their scheme to embezzle $20 million from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Khan's father, Army Corps contracting manager Kerry F. Khan, and Khan's brother, Lee A. Khan, were among four Northern Virginia men arrested Tuesday as part of a two-year multiagency investigation into the alleged theft of $20 million from the Army Corps.

Prosecutors were hesitant to talk about Ferose Khan's role in helping to unravel the elaborate contracting scheme and would not publicly identify him.

Authorities said the Khans were part of a "staggering" scheme in which the conspirators steered no-bid contractors worth tens of millions of dollars to favored businesses and lined their pockets with up to $20 million in tax money.

While in jail, Ferose Khan began corresponding with his brother and father, a contracting manager with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. On Aug. 22, Ferose sent a letter threatening to cooperate with authorities if his family did not pay up.

"Tell Kerry, he has until September 2 to deposit the entire cost of my house and 4 cars into my TD bank account, or I will enter an agreement with the federal government," he wrote.

Over the next four days, Kerry Khan and Lee Khan moved hundreds of thousands of dollars to the family trust account to pay Ferose Khan.

Ronald Machen Jr., U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, declined to elaborate Tuesday what role Ferose Khan played in helping to unravel the contracting scheme.

He said federal authorities were already investigating the contracting scheme when the family member began making his threats to expose the contracting scheme.

"We really want to stick to the four corners of the indictment," Machen said.

Ferose Khan pleaded guilty to the felony drug charges on Aug. 19, and was sentenced to five years. As part of his plea he agreed to cooperate with the government and provide information to any criminal activity requested by authorities.

What I think is laughable is the Nova Datacom corporate profile on Inc:

http://www.inc.com/inc5000/profile/nova-datacom

Statistics
3-year growth:893%
2010 Revenue:$47.1 million
2007 Revenue:$4.7 million

As a former employee, we were all wondering how in the world they could possibly grow so quickly... 893% 3-year growth? Well I guess now we know...

Why people can't make money the old fashioned way is beyond me...

What is more interesting is that min cho is only a face of nova datacom because her brother wanted to get 8(a) status for his company. I've read some of her blogs and it is hard to beileve that she is really the author of such blogs..... also she continues to play 'dumb', while she too has been clearly arrested in the past. Everyone in the small korean community knows that it is her brother Alex, that is the real founder and cheif of nova datacom and that he helped the feds nail the other key player to get a lighter sentence. I am wondering if his assests will also be confiscated by the govt? The other 4 will definitely loss most of their assests that they asmmased illegally with tax payer money. Will the same happen to alex cho and his sister?

It didn't list a reason for arrest but the time of release correlates with the time her brother started to go undercover for the feds. So I am guessing that its the same reason. Funny thing is that she continues to write blogs and completely acts like she doesn't know why nova datacom is even implicated. I would think that it would seem less slimy to the public if she just gave a half honest statement. Just my opinion.

Here is a copy of the original email from Min Cho announcing the resignation of Ted Hallas last December. This was just after he was nabbed by the feds and implicated Alex in the USACE scandal. At the time, they just thought Ted had gotten caught for writing fraudulent past performances and had no idea that he had ratted Alex out:

------------

From: Min Cho [mailto:mcho@novadatacom.com]
Sent: Thursday, December 30, 2010 11:11 AM
To: Nova Staff
Subject: Ted Hallas

Nova Datacom Team,

It is with deep regret that I announce the resignation of Ted Hallas as our Executive Vice President, effective today, December 30th. In recent months, Ted has been tasked with balancing an increasingly complex familial issue and the demands of our fast paced environment. This decision was not easily reached, but mutually determined as the best course of action for all involved parties.

In the past 3 years, Ted Hallas has worked tirelessly and selflessly to help realize our combined vision of Nova Datacom. His influence, philosophies, drive, and his friendship will not be forgotten as we all continue forward in his footsteps. It is with the warmest personal regard and unending support that the executive staff wishes him the best in his future endeavors, and we hope to have the opportunity for continued success in the future.

Sincerely,

Min Cho
Chief Executive Officer

I did a search for Young Nho Cho aka Alex Cho on the BOP. Site. His inmate number did come up but it also said not in bop custody. Do you know if he had been detained. And do you know why Min Cho was arrested in June 2010? Will nova datacom still stay in business?

Elizabeth,

We had a meeting last week and they ended up laying off a good number of people. Management is basically saying that unless they get paid by EyakTek we are going to need to shut our doors. It's very interesting what you say about Alex's wife purchasing a $400k ring since management is saying they don't have enough money at the moment to make payroll and that is why they are so desperate to have a successful outcome in court. Alex hasn't even bothered to show his face in almost four months so we aren't sure what is going on.

All of the employees are pretty much sick to their stomachs about all of this. Management is trying to pretend like they are innocent victims in all of this but everyone knows Alex was a willing participant in the scheme until he was caught. We all feel like we've been pretty much screwed because now we all need to find new jobs as it's doubtful that we'll still be in business in 6 months.

The suspicions are this point are that management is trying to stockpile as much money as possible before they end up going to prison. If Alex's wife is purchasing expensive items this might be an attempt to make it hard for the feds to get access to the money.

It's all so disgusting. I wish I never came to work for these greedy, dishonest, and unethical people...

I am wondering if the feds will confiscate all of the jewels that amy cho bought with tax payer money. They even moved into a new multi million dollar home in mclean not to ling ago. Is it fair that the tax payers should pay for their lavish lifestyle during one of the worst economic times.

By the way, alex cho has another felony on his record so many he is not showing up to work because he has already been detained. Fyi, his real name is Young nho Cho. He had robbed a family before at gunpoint, the only difference this time is the fact that he didn't wear a ski mask and point a gun.

I'm afraid what Elizabeth is saying is very true about that family. I have a friend who knew Alex Cho and he was indeed jailed before and it was for armed robbery. Guess it was when he was younger. I'm told that he has expensive taste in cars and other material things. It is a shame. May God be with all the innocent employees and their families at Nova Datacom. Hope you guys find good jobs soon and they all get long jail terms.

For what it's worth, the motion hearing in the NovaDatacom vs. EyakTek case is tomorrow at 5PM EST in Eastern District Court:

http://www.vaed.uscourts.gov/schedule/w-weeklyellis.html

Absolutely ridiculous that they are going to try to pull a fast one and get a lower court to rule that EyakTek must pay them the money that they claim to be owed, even though there is no doubt that the invoices they submitted were over-inflated and the work was obtained through bribery and kickbacks.

Please get the word out to Judge Ellis, Senator Markey, your local congressional delegations, or anyone else that will listen that we won't stand for this - no monies should be paid to any parties until the Fed's investigation is complete.

If you're on Twitter we're continuously monitoring the situation and occasionally sending out Tweets about the ongoing situation with Nova Datacom.

As much as this whole thing makes me sick -- EyakTek needs to pay so that the engineers that did work on real projects can get paid ... its disgusting that the invoices were inflated -- and that overage should be paid back to the government with penalties by both Nova and Eyak -- but meanwhile Eyak as DIRTY as they are is sitting on millions of dollars the government already paid them and earning interest -- while innocent engineers are getting layed off -- all because of 5 or 6 SCUM BAGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EYAK -- doesn't do a bit of work -- just adds additional inflation to the already inflated invoice...ITS ALL DISGUSTING....

LPG,

While I hear you regarding Nova Datacom needing the money so they can pay the employees that legitimately performed work, the unfortunate fact of the matter is it appears that the management at Nova Datacom is doing this because they are more concerned with padding their pockets that actually doing the right thing on behalf of thei employees.

They already laid off about 25 folks in the last few weeks and many of these employees were not paid their full salaries or outstanding commissions... These greedy bastards are screwing their employees left and right...

Considering that Nova Datacom made over $17 million last year, I find it really strange that they are all of a sudden facing the potential of needing to close their doors as a result of these two invoices that EyakTek hasn't paid. Perhaps Amy Cho could go sell a few of the outlandish and outrageously expensive jewels she recently purchased so Nova Datacom could make their payroll.

Considering how unethical Nova Datacom principals have been and how they were dishonest with taxpayer money, I don't believe they should be paid until the government makes a ruling on the overall fraud case.

I just got laid off by these losers 2 weeks ago... No advance notice, no severance, and no concern... They just called a bunch of us in, told us they had to lay off "non-essential" workforce and let us go. We're hoping to get our final paychecks in the mail next week as they stated, but we are all definitely keeping our fingers crossed, hoping there will be no unforeseen issues. Can't believe the lack of concern management showed us after many of us dedicated the last several years of our life to helping build this company from the ground up...

I didn't realize that so many families would be affected by the greed of a few people. Nova datacom may take the stance that Alex Cho was just one bad apple and that the company should not be made guilty for his actions. However that is just another sleez bag move by a company that did everything illegally to make fast money for a few individuals and their families. If I was one of the layer off employees, I would seriously consider going to obey of the news agencies or even publicly protesting. It would not surprise me if they had money hidden away in foreign accounts under the wife's name or even her parents name. Alex knew what was going to happen over a year ago. During that time I am sure he made some moves that no one, not even the feds know about. It is interesting how both Eyak and the Corps both made public announcements that the so called 'bad apples' would be immediately fired, while nova datacom made any such announcement. And could they even fire the true owner, founder and head of the company. Also when key players were arrested, it was all over the news. However when Min Cho was arrested over a year ago, no one heard about it and she even had the audacity to continue to act publicly shocked and denied any involvement. I hope the judge presiding over the suit against Eyak, will not be blind to the criminal background of nova datacom. If the judge should rule in favor of nova datacom, I hope that there will be some provision regarding were the 2 million should go towards. Paying back the government and paying the legit employees of nova datacom and not towards paying for the fancy jewels and cars of the Cho family!

Funny thing is Amy's brother was busted about 10 years ago for insurance fraud. He had a real big set up too. His own legal firm and he is not even an attorney and his own chiropractor firm and he is not even a chiropractor! Feel a bit sorry for the wife. First her brother that 10 years later, she meets the feds once again. What a coincidence. .....

Quick update - attorneys for both Nova Datacom and EyakTek appeared at the motion hearing yesterday afternoon. In case you weren't aware, Nova Datacom filed a motion for a TRO and injunctive relief in the amount of $2m stating that if they don't get paid immediately, their business will be in jeopardy of shutting down. At the same time, they admit that the $2m in invoices contain overages in connection with the scandal.

EyakTek has filed a motion in opposition to Nova Datacom's claim and does a very good job of showing that the Government's best interest will not be served by paying Nova Datacom since the invoices submitted by NDC contain overages and as such the government shouldn't be paying these as they aren't factual.

Furthermore, EyakTek's claim is that if Nova Datacom is in such dire straights that they need to use the money to make payroll, there is a significant risk that the government will never be able to recoup this money. Therefore EyakTek is proposing to keep the money in an escrow account to ensure that the government can recoup any overages.

An additional hearing will be held today at 4:30PM so we should know more information as this progresses folks... lot's of interesting things going on.

For what it's worth, Nova Datacom is now referring to Alex Cho as the "former" CTO. According to the Financial Disclosure Statement NDC submitted to the courts in relation to this case, Min Cho now owns 100% of the company.

We also got our hands on Ted Hallas' plea bargain and the sentencing guidelines that he agreed to - He'll be doing anywhere between 24-37 months behind bars plus a fine in the range of anywhere from $5,000 - $60,000 for his involvement.

We'll hopefully be setting up a web site sometime soon which will showcase all of this information...

The case of Nova Datacom v. Verzani had to do with a 2007 purchase of 500 Playstaytion 3 (PS3) devices that Alex Cho purchased from a shady dealer (Elizabeth Verzani and her husband Paul Godinez) in Canada. Verzani claimed to have received thousands of such devices from a company that was going under and was going to give them to Alex for a fraction of the cost. For what it's worth it appears the units were likely stolen to begin with...

As it turns out, after Alex had wired the money to Verzani, Verzani and her husband filed for bankruptcy. Nova Datacom filed suit against them to be awarded damages for their losses, something in excess of $275,000 plus $25,000 for punitive damages. (Seems a lot higher than it would have cost to actually purchase 500 PS3 units, even back in 2007, but this doesn't surprise me... Seems Alex had a way of adding in overages even back then ;-b

So it looked like Alex thought he was going to get a good price on stolen goods but was in fact burned on this one... No honor amongst thieves eh'?

Nova Datacom filed a motion to dismiss the case on 04/05/2011, likely because they are currently involved in the USACE bribery and kickback scandal...

Victory has prevailed. The judge denied Nova Datacom's motion for TRO and injunctive relief due to the fact that they have "unclean hands". A trial has been set for Feb. 7th, 2012 at 10 AM EST in the Eastern District Court in Alexandria, VA.

It will be interesting to see how much longer Nova Datacom can keep the lights running if they are indeed in such a dire financial condition. Expect more layoffs to come.

Actually, Nova Datacom claims to have made $47 million in 2010 which is one of the reasons the judge decided to deny their motion - the $2m they are asking for represents less than 5% of their entire 2010 revenues. Also, as was revealed in court, EyakTek already paid out $27 million to Nova Datacom for previous invoices, therefore the judge agreed the $2m likely represents overages.

How can it be that Nova Datacom is in such financial dire straights? Where did all that money go???

We would if we had anything better to do... Unfortunately I was laid off along with 15 other people a few weeks ago, right before the holidays, with no severance to boot, so I'm sorry if I'm a little sour but it is justified.

Former Nova Datacom Exec Pleads Guilty To Wire Fraud
By Jennifer Bosavage, CRN
October 17, 2011 8:58 PM ET
http://www.crn.com/news/channel-programs/231900978/former-nova-datacom-exec-pleads-guilty-to-wire-fraud.htm;jsessionid=ZLl6fx1h4Rf-GATpmDGOgg**.ecappj03

The former executive vice president of operations for Nova Datacom pled guilty Thursday to charges he gave false information to federal agencies in order to win contracts for another consultant.

Theodoros Hallas, the former executive at the VAR500 IT solution provider Nova Datacom, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, according to a statement by the U.S. Department of Justice. Hallas is also involved in the indictment of another IT solution provider, MEDTrends, the DOJ said.

Nova Datacom did not respond to requests for comment.

In his guilty plea, Hallas acknowledged that he agreed to let former colleague, Roger Malik, the former executive vice president of MED Trends, a health-care IT solution provider, use false past performance references and evaluations to bolster the qualifications of MED Trends, the DOJ said. Malik was named in an indictment unsealed in U.S. District Court Friday, charging him with conspiracy, wire fraud and making false statements to win a federal government contract, the DOJ said.

Malik was able to represent falsely to federal agencies that Hallas’s employers -- including Nova Datacom -- had contractual relationships with MED Trends. Those false recommendations were used to grow the federal contracting business for MED Trends, the DOJ said.

In one case, outlined by the DOJ, Hallas provided a false reference to MED Trends to help the solution provider win a contract with the U.S. Department of Labor. According to the charges, that led to MED Trends winning the $20 million contract.

The indictment additionally alleged that Malik caused MED Trends to submit false information to the Small Business Administration, because it wished to obtain and retain status as a HUBZone Small Business Concern.

The SBA's HUBZone Program was established to assist small businesses in urban and rural communities get preferential access to federal procurement opportunities. The DOJ charged that the federal contracts were worth more than $17 million in income for MED Trends.

That money, according to the indictment was earned under false pretenses, since the solution provider had received certification as a HUBZone Small Business Concern and its self-certification as a SDVO Small Business Concern based on Malik's misinformation.

I left back in March after seeing a lot of sketchy stuff there - like they kept telling people they had a SCIF for confidential data but it was really just being used for storage of PCs, Servers and network gear that Alex was selling on eBay. Lots of weird stuff like this going on all the time.

This was a company which was overly concerned with its image and did everything they could to try to eliminate any negative perception.

The following is an email we received back in January, which paints a pretty good picture of what I'm talking about -

Subject: Responding to Glassdoor Postings

Good afternoon everyone-

I am sure by now many of you have heard of the workplace reviews we've gotten over at Glassdoor, which didn't paint a very nice picture about working at Nova Datacom. I've seen how these types of things can affect a company when I worked at LTI, and I can't stress how important it is for us to nip this in the bud as quickly as possible, lest this have an impact on our future recruiting efforts and ability to obtain quality candidates.

In order to try to counter these negative reviews, I'm asking that each of you go to Glassdoor (www.glassdoor.com) and post a POSITIVE review of your working experience here. While I am sure many of you have things that you are unhappy about, I would ask that you refrain from posting those on Glassdoor as it's important that we project Nova Datacom as being a fantastic place to work.

For the time being, we are ASKING each of you to do this. Please help us in this effort or we may be forced to make this an MBO. :)

Thanks for your understanding and for your help in this matter.

Alex is currently in custody awaiting the trial of Khan and Babb where he will testify against them. His case will remain under seal until after he testifies. From what I've heard he has already agreed to a plea bargain which will consist of him spending several years behind bars, plus seizure of many of his assets after he testifies.

The rumor in the office is that he has directed his wife to begin hiding assets by making purchases that would make it difficult for the government to seize.

NDC is looking at selling for about $5M which will be pocketed by Min Cho primarily, then a small chunk by Joe Kim and a little bit to Bill Halliday - since he is orchestrating this.

It's a sad state of affairs when a company that made $47m in 2010 is selling for a measly $5m. What a joke this company has become.

It's good that Joe Kim will be getting a cut cause his slimy ass has burned so many bridges it will be unlikely if he can ever get another job as prestigious as the one he had here... VP of Engineering?... pretty much a joke - could have been a VP of Sales since his slimy ass is so good at lying.

A lot of people got burned by these folks - not just the gov, but all the employees who were discarded like trash over the past couple of years. Some people will be able to move on. Others will struggle. Others will go back to their stupid Nest Egg Designs...

Joe Kim came from Juniper....Alex brought him over to grow the Juniper part of the master plan. Ted Halliday was originally from ITG ( an IT company located off Gallows Rd in Fairfax,VA ). He then moved to Copper River and then Nova Datacom. He is a smart guy and very nice person to deal with. I' m sure he is just trying to salvage what is left from the good relationships that NDC may still have. Min Cho , Alex Cho and Ted Hallas were to real criminals here. Min Cho is a liar and a very sneaky person and her brother Alex Cho is basically a Hustler/ Con man who got caught 3 times now. Ted Halles was a pompous A- Hole who originally came from Nortel and was picked up by Alex Cho. Heard by a friend of mine that they were ling time buddies. Everything Elizabeth has said is true about Amy. Amy came from nothing and was basically there for Alex at the begining. Nothing suprises me about what you are telling us about her. She is a very flashy image driven person who would do anything Alex told her. This will all be over soon and hope the true theifs go to jail. And don't worry,,Government will find every bit of money they are trying to hide and even if that 5m sale does happen. Gov will get their money. Min Cho has her 2.5 million dollar house on the market now. She never got a chance to even live in it. Greed always catches up.

Honestly I knew Amy a long time ago and this is really unfortunate because deep deep down I know she is a good person. However she just went about things the wrong way and probably has no friends! She's the type to flaunt everything and hates when others are doing well. Maybe she needs to find God it something because is is the perfect person that is going to be one lonely old lady with nothing in life that matters. And yes Alex Cho is a hustler, his criminal record will show that he even robbed a family at gun point!!! Then he gets out of jail starts up this company but can't even just be humbe and run it in the right way. I just don't understand people who are given a second chance and throws it in the trash. The safest part is that these liars have young children and those poor kids are the ones that gonna pay the price of their parents.

Someone should notify all of the credit card companies that they plan on making big purchases and then not pay of it. Alex used to brag that he had a black amex with unlimited spending. I am sure that his wife will probably making huge purchases to sell off later. Then again, the public will end up paying.

it is very true that Alex, Min and Amy came from nothing. Amy's brother hurt so many people and blamed everything on his associate to avoid jail time. Just like Alex is doing now. The associate was deported leaving his family behind including his very young baby. Alex's family came to the US illegally from Argentina due to their family's shady business conduct. So basically the family moving back to Korea shouldn't be anything new to them. It is so sad that a company like NDC make it hard for other legit minority company to do business with government. HUMBLE is not the vocabulary word the Cho family is familiar with. I do feel bad for their young kids. How are they going to survive shopping at regular stores after wearing clothes from Armani and all??
At least after the business closes for good some employees don't have to listen to Alex and Min using the "n" word to describe their employees and friends.

Joe Kim is a real sleazeball... talking all the time about how he cheats on his wife when he goes to Vegas, Toronto, Korea, etc. Talked all the time about these famous Korean haircuts he gets whenever he goes to Seoul... supposedly one woman cuts his hair while another gives him a happy ending... real nice guy.

Flaunted his Black Amex and basically stepped on anybody in his way. The other poster was right by saying Joe has burned so many bridges. There are probably about 80 people who were hired and fired under Joe over the last 3 years, they basically discarded people when they were done with them (lost a contract, etc.) He'll be lucky to find a job in the tiny IT community given the way he treated people around him... he was one of the main reasons that Nova Datacom got such a bad reputation amongst the partner and vendor community.

To top that off, he also got in some criminal/legal trouble years before when he worked at Symantec... seems he was taking certification exams for other people to help them get jobs at Symantec and he was charging them several thousand dollars apiece until he got caught. Seems like the greedy Cho family had a knack for surrounding themselves with sleazeballs...

So Scott Morris isn't getting any cut? That sucks for him... he gave up a lot to help those sleazeballs and looks like he took a big chance for nothing...

BTW, for what it's worth, I don't think that the folks at CopperRiver are going to go for it. From what I've heard, there is too much liability at the moment since the investigation is still ongoing.

I have a good feeling NDC is just plain fucked...

Wow!!!! I guess the Cho's and Song's (amy's maiden name ) are a popular group. I remember her brother, and all that scamming he was doing. I didn't know his associate paid the big price for it. I always thought that was his gig. I heard he is laying hardwood floors for a living now and that his wife commuted suicide a few years ago. Not sure if that is just a sick rumor or the truth but that is what I had heard. You gotta see Amy's whole family and it would start to make a lot of sense. They are real big on plastic surgery too, especially all the aunts, they all look alike. One thing I do know about Amy thought is she gets really 'into' her man and is extremely loyal, almost to a fault! Too bad she couldn't be that way to her life long friends. She is the biggest hater I know, or knew!

Well never heard of the Joe guy but salons? Hmmmmm. Enough said. Well keep me posted on any new escalations. And as for Min Cho being the head of any company is a big fat joke, just like she is!

They enjoyed a meteoric rise in just a few short years, only to do the walk of shame... What a joke... I feel bad for their marketing manager, she got more than her fair share on this one...

Not sure if this works. Here is a picture of Ted Hallas to the right and another picture of Min.

O-M-G...you're really making me L-O-L with your hilarious posts. You've been gone for what...a year, or more and you're still pissed off about it? Somebody's got some issues.... But yes, the grown-up thing to do is to get back at your former employer by posting garbage on a forum and hiding behind a screen name. Good work, e-thug. But that's not all...you then proceed to reply to your own posts with witless comments AND...impersonate Nova Datacom employees who have nothing to do with this...

BTW stupid shit, your IP is tracked on this forum....maybe some of these people who you're talking shit about or impersonating will take legal action against you for public slander, impersonation, identity theft. Then maybe you and the rest of the greedy bastards who frauded the government can share a cell with you...

Excuse me but are you saying that the posts here is not the truth and the links are all false. I read the indictment on khan and it seems like much of these posts are truthful.. so I really don't understand why you would say otherwise. The public is entitled to have an opinion and to ask questions of a forum such as this. How s that unlawful? I don't mean to have any disrespect towards what you are saying but it seems a bit hypocrical for a company to defraud the public and its tax dollars yet the we cannot have our own opinions/theories. Everything I have said, is truthful to the best of my knowledge based on what I have read from various respected media outlet. Yes I do and have many questions because it is shocking to me,that someone I thought I knew well would be embroiled in such a huge scandal.

It's looks like public info too me>>>LOL It's a good thing that we/they got out of that Crooked company while we/they did. A lot of people got hurt here....families, employees, taxpayers while these greedy bastards were scamming,buying expensive houses, vacations...etc. It's a good think they got caught since they were fixing to fraud the government out of millions more.

"At the time of their arrests, they had their sights set on another federal contract worth about $780 million, prosecutors said."

Ok >be upset that's fine, but if Elizabeth or any number of the other people on this topic feel like posting their opinions you can't say or do shit about it. I have friends who still work for that shit company wondering if they are going to get a paycheck, their commission and what their future holds. Disrespecting anyone>>please...the people who are guilty know who they are and if your picture or pictures are posted and you have nothing to hide then go back to work at Nova Datacom and pretend that the company will be around this same time next year. Be pissed but don't be pissed at something that is public info that we are allowed to comment on. Come on and sue....sue your company for lying and screwing you/we/us over. Nova Datacom has some good people> but the roots of the company had/has some parasites. I'm sure more info will come out soon>>>can't wait.

Thank you! I couldn't agree more. Even if they grated people with some respect maybe there would some sympathy for them. But I've known their family a long time ago and they are all about image! I don't know why but they are obsessed with it. The whole lot of them! Maybe that is why there is such a backlash. I know that these things happen all the time with govt contractors but its just the way they treat people and have their priorities screwed. Think about it, not may people can put on a mask, carry a gun anf rob the elderly at gunpoint. But Alex did! And this is not false or slander because he was convicted of the crime and served his time. I just feel like that kind of criminal activity tells a lot about a person. He did the same thing to the govt and us tax payers. Only difference this time was that he wasn't wearing a mask and holding a loaded gun to our heads! However I applaud the hardworking investigators to finally catching these thieves. Like it or not, that is exactly what they are!

Angela, stop drinking the kool-aid you... getting back at my employer by posting garbage??? Everything we've posted is true... are you saying that Nova Datacom isn't involved in one of the largest frauds ever committed against the US government? Are the investigators and allegations untrue? Is Alex Cho not in custody? Was Ted Hallas' plea bargain that was posted by the other poster untrue? You're just pissed that you invested 2 years building up a marketing campaign for a company that turned out to be all based on bullshit...

Who is the dumb shit now? Have you ever heard of TOR - www.torproject.org? It's very useful to maintain anonymity. Highly useful for posting on glassdoor, or launching anonymous Denial of Service attacks ;) what a dumb red-headed biotch.

Wow- Gunpoint? wish I could read that case but I do believe you.

The company was built from the start on thinking of ways to make quick cash. Like the earlier post about Alex Cho and his game system scam, this was just a new idea for him. Image is important and that's why this big scam they pulled is so fascinating. They projected themselves as a Fast Growing Company, Top Fastest in Washington Area, Min as the poster child for Small Disadvantaged Company who with her "entrepreneurial ambition" rose above the occasion. Really? I know Min Cho and she has about as much entrepreneurial instincts as my pet cat.

Try this- Why dont you market instead how they took advantage of our government's 8a program, how they overcharged the government 20 M I L L I O N in overages. How they mislead all of us employees thinking that this was a real company going real places when in fact it was just a cover up to hide where the real money was coming from. Oh sure, they may have some real contract now (it takes money to make money)but let's not fool ourselves here.

Gota give Alex Cho some credit. He did manage to save his ass some jail time by cooperating with investigators. Then again, maybe Ted Hallas is the smart one by telling on Alex Cho.....in other words ...who cares. They got them!!! Whose identity are we slandering, impersonating? The crooks? You? Come on.

Wonder how the Cho Family is doing? Wonder is Amy Cho is out shopping on the Black Friday buying all the nice and expensive gifts with our money. Wonder if Ted Hallas was able to choke down his turkey yesterday while everyone else was worried about getting paychecks. Wonder if the rumors are true about Copper River buying Nova Datacom and if happens-will they pay the employees? Wondering if Joe Kim is worried and can't sleep because he is a crook and soon may be caught. What about Bill Holliday, did he have a good turkey day? Will he be cutting paychecks first thing on Monday? Is Min Cho worried about her 2 million dollar house loosing money in the current market? I think not.

Omg that is horrible. You guys have right to get your last paycheck. You should file a complaint with someone . I know there are entities out there. I too worked for a similar company. The pretended to be some kind of big developer but in the end they used investors money for new homes and cars. And we were all let go with little to no notice and she filed chapter 7 or 11. This was a korean company too. I am korean but I gotta admit that they are consumed with image!

People have too much time on their hands. Especially one who uses multiple nicknames to post the same stupid stuff.

Even assuming the recently laid off employees not getting their paychecks was correct, why post it on here? Especially considering this is a holiday week, Which may explain difficulty getting a hold of people.

It seems everyone likes to use their keyboard prior to their brains. But maybe stuff is true, maybe it's not. I think that is why we have a legal system. Let them figure it out, and in the meantime feel sorry for anyone who really has been wronged by this company or these people.

The Department of Labor will easily fight for the paychecks and other promised benefits (I've had friends go through this before with other companies). So if you have been wronged, direct your energies in the correct place. It would seem that getting your money makes more sense than posting something here. File a complaint with the DoL and get your money.

If it's not accurate, I'd expect things to continue on here. But at the same time, if it's close to accurate, feel for the people still working there! They too would need wishes this holiday season!

You definitely make some good points! I guess the reason people are here is to just vent or get more accurate information. I for one didnt work for the company so I wouldn't know what it was like actually working there. However if you read the email by the marketing director, you can only guess that it was not your typical company. Yes I do have many questions and or opinions but it is more personal than anything else. Because I've known these people outside of the work place, and therefore seen their true colors, I probably would never even take a job for there, period. However I do completely sympathize with these people here venting. I think it has more to do with a sense of betrayal than just a missed paycheck. However you are correct advising them to file a complaint with the department of labor! That would be the right thing to do. But you can't deny with so much information out there, assesible to the public now a days (such as the 40 some page indictment ), it doesn't look good for nova datacom. Like the marketing director and Min Cho said, reputation is so important in this business......and it seems that nova datacom's reputation has finally caught up with that of its founder. Yes if it were just one bad apple, than nova datacom could just fire that individual and do some PR repair but it seems like it was just more than one bad apple. And that is why people feel such a betrayal. Think about it, many of these people probably thought they were going to build careers with NDC, and to figure out that they were just pawns....well, hive them time to vent. It is human nature to feel the way that these people feel. I don't think they are doing anything out of the norm. And to those still at NDC, best wishes and best luck to all. I am more than sure that they are truly hard working loyal people, why else would they stay on a sinking ship.

Oh and I forgot but I have not lied about anything I have written. You can search under Alex Chi's real name which is Young nho Cho and you will see that he did serve time for robbery. Therefore it is not slander. Also if you go on the federal bop and do an inmate search. You will see that Min Ja Cho was released June of 2010 and that Young Nho Cho is in custody. None of this is fabricated. If you look at Ted Hallas's indictment you will also see what he has already pled guilty for therefore as you said the legal system has done much of its work. And you are right, let them do their work but then you need to open your eyes to what the legal system has put out there for public information! Correct?

After reading all of this, it makes me even more inclined to realize that government spending needs to be pulled back significantly. A lot of money spent - not a lot of results. What the hell do you all do anyway? At least I can see the cop sitting in the donut shop, and I know he'll pull somebody over at some point, but man, all of this IT, for what? Exactly how many contractors does it take to support a single GS-12 employee? It's like contractors to support a government employee who isn't doing much of anything anyway.

Go get a job in the private industry........the real private industry, the one not supported with tax dollars. Guys like me are tired of feeding the cows. I hope these asses rot in jail for stealing my tax money too.

I don't intend to protect any of Cho's under fire. It seems like everyone is after them, but I wish that people would be a little more considerate when posting photos with people who are not involved in this. Or, at least get the facts straight before posting them. Yes, one of the three women in the photo IS Amy. But the woman on left is NOT her late mother-in-law. And the other woman is a good friend of mine who is entirely unrelated to all this mess. Just imagine how their children would think of their moms if they ever run into this site. Cho's took a lots of pictures with lots of people including myself and my family. It seems like enough people are after Cho's already, and I am certain that they will have to pay for whatever they've done. However, Korean community around here being so intimate as it is, I think one should be a little more careful and thoughtful about posting photos on sites such as this.
Beside, what good can it bring by revealing what they look like to everyone? I know their kids and I just hope they never get to see this.

And one more fact-check, Min Cho's full name is NOT Min Ja Cho who was arrested 2010. Someone in here has been saying that Min was in jail last year. But I saw and talked to her many times in that period. I know she was not in jail.
Let's stop making false and unnecessary accusations.

Why, so the Cho kids don't grow up to know that their father was a liar and a cheat, and couldn't find success without defrauding the government and the taxpayers?

Correction - Min was arrested but only spent the weekend in jail. This was in relation to the fraud committed against USACE. She was jailed for lying to federal investigators but was released on her own personal recognizance after finally convincing Alex to work with the feds.

Just a quick update -

EyakTek just filed a Motion to Dismiss the original complaint filed by Nova Datacom on the basis that the grounds fail to state a claim upon which relief may be granted. The court hearing is scheduled for Friday, Dec. 16th, 2011 at 10AM EST in Eastern District Court. The motion is backed up by some pretty good case law so chances are they will prevail in court. If they are successful in their motion (which it appears they will be due to the fact that the submitted invoiced most likely represent 100% overages), this will further exacerbate the financial situation at Nova Datacom.

On other related matters, in the USACE case, it looks like the government has requested an extended period of discovery to prepare their case due to the "voluminous amount of recordings" gathered via wiretap, emails, and other evidence. As such, Alex's case will remain sealed for a considerable duration, at least until after he has testified againsts Babb and the Khan's in the USACE case. Most likely it will be 6 months before this case is brought to trial.

Some interesting information has been revealed - It appears from some of the discovery docs that Nova Datacom also had a few shell companies set up that they were using to hide money, so beyond these criminal cases, it looks like they may be facing some additional trouble with the IRS due to tax fraud and evasion.

We've also learned that the government has already seized many of Nova Datacom's financial assets, including much of that owned by Alex and Min Cho. This would explain why Min has her $2m house on the market and why they are in such a desperate state to sell their remaining assets to the tune of $5m.

More to come!

Dear GFE,

You seem like a very good and accurate source of information. May I ask why you have such an interest in this case? I've already mentioned my reasons. And it seems to get even more interesting as time goes on. I do find it a bit unfair for the other 4 in jail, if Alex is going to get off easily when he was probably the greatest source of greed. I say this in my opinion because it take a special individual to commit armed robbery, which he has. And this case is just another example if how he tried to rob the government and tax payers. This time he was not wearing a mask. However I am wondering what came first, the chicken or the egg. Did alex approach the engineers and offer bribes or did the engineers solicit bribes. It does make somewhat of a difference. We are all human and if someone is dangling a 2 million dollar check in your face, then yes people are/will make irrational choices. Therefore I believe the one that enticed the whole situation is just as guilty if not more so! Just like the drug dealers/drug users ....most likely the user will get off with a lighter sentence. However I am sure that this is more complicates than drug cases.

I am wondering, is Amy and her son's and her parents still living in their new house in Mclean? I know she has two young boys and I live in the area as well but never have I run into her. I honestly do feel sorry for her children. I am a mom myself, and boys do need a father figure. And with the korean community being so small, I don't see how she will ever be able to show her face around town. Especially HER, she has so much pride! I remember she had an older sister, who actually married a law enforcement officier. What an irony!!!

Press Release
For Immediate Distribution
November 28th, 2011
Nova Datacom, LLC

Last month, articles started to appear in CRN, BusinessWeek, the WashingtonPost and other related news agencies regarding the alleged involvement of Nova Datacom in an ongoing investigation involving contract officers within the US Army Corp of Engineers as well as a contracting director at EyakTek. This crime is now being investigated by the Department of Justice (DOJ) and other legal entities within the US Government.

While we are currently limited in what we can reveal regarding these allegations due to the nature of the ongoing investigation, we absolutely and unequivocally deny any such adversarial involvement in any such illicit activities. When the facts are brought to light the true nature of our involvement will be revealed; furthermore it will be shown that our executives acted in the best interest of the US Government. Nova Datacom's involvement in this case was only to the extent of assisting the US Government in building a case in order to apprehend the true criminals within the US Army Corp of Engineers and at EyakTek.

Upon learning of these allegations last year, Nova Datacom did uncover an error in their billing systems that caused undue overages in invoices submitted to the Army Corps in the amount of approximately $20 million. Nova Datacom has taken the necessary steps to rectify our billing systems and has agreed to work with the government to repay any inflated invoices.

Regarding the indictment of Ted (Theodoros) Hallas and his involvement with writing false past performances in conjunction with his former colleague at MED Trends, this is a separate incident which has absolutely nothing to do with Nova Datacom, therefore we have nothing further to comment on the matter.

Alex Cho has currently stepped down and is no longer CTO of Nova Datacom, however this was strictly due to personal reasons and the desire to spend more time with his family.

All of these incidents are under investigation and more information is forthcoming. Please direct any inquiries to our marketing department for additional information at ainguillo@novadatacom.com.

Interesting that a dissenting opinion can set off such ire. I'd say someone is a bit disgruntled perhaps past the point of rational thinking.

Grow up. Get a pair. Move on.

As your name implies, perhaps the truth does hurt, but it has reached the point where you have hit zero-credibility.

Oh wow that is great news for nova datacom. I am sure that when Alex Cho's sealed indictment is released, it will make all the more sense. Khan and Babb's indictment did state that conspirator 'a' has been charged and that his was identified as the CTO of Nova datacom. It is interesting that Alex Cho, the founder of the company would step down for such personal matters, during such a critical time for the company that he founded! I guess we will all have to wait and see. This indeed gives much hope that conspirator a, will then spend no time in custody but rather be some what of a hero for his company and tax payers alike. I guess it is safe to assume that he is spending quality time with his family and not in custody awaiting the trial of Babb's and Khan.
Also the news agencies that you mentioned above have been quite credible and reputable thus far.....but if your news flash is indeed true than those agencies should issue a formal apology?

This is such bullcrap - this company is nothing but lies and deceit. I just got laid off yesterday, but not before I got to keep a copy of the email Angela sent out last Friday. Take a look and you can see how full of crap these people are:

------------------------------------

From: Angela Inguillo [mailto:ainguillo@novadatacom.com]
Sent: Friday, November 25, 2011 1:36 PM
To: Nova Staff
Subject: Responding to Recent Nova Datacom Events

Good afternoon everyone-

As many of you are aware, we are currently dealing with a crisis situation here and are desperately trying to contain the damage as a result of the entire USACE scandal. There is no doubt that the integrity and reputation of Nova Datacom has been harmed in an irreparable manner.

As you may have heard, Alex's case will be unsealed in the coming months. When this happens, much more information will be revealed regarding the extent and involvement to which Nova Datacom executives were involved in the scandal, which is sure to prompt a large media inquiry. We want to let you know that we are going to begin a marketing campaign with the intent of denying these claims, so that we can calm the storm during acquisition talks that are currently underway. We are preparing statements in advance that we can have on hand as a response to the media when further knowledge about the crisis first becomes known on a widespread basis or by reporters.

As discussed in the staff meeting earlier this week, we are currently in talks with several companies to acquire our remaining assets, but in the meantime it is imperative that we continue to maintain the appearance of business as usual. Anything less than the appearance of business as usual will have an impact on our ability to spin off our assets. In the meantime, as corporate policy we are asking all of you to formally deny any involvement with the scandal if asked for any additional information. If you are uncomfortable denying the allegations, you may direct any inquiries to myself or anyone else in the marketing department.

Due to the sensitive nature of these allegations, and the fluidity of the acquisition, anyone who reveals additional information regarding the true nature of our involvement will be immediately terminated. If in doubt, simply direct these inquiries to marketing.

Thanks for your understanding and for your help in this matter.

The email from Angela Inguillo is such bullcrap - identical to the bullcrap that was pulled last year when Hallas had to step down for family issues. NDC along with is top executives are all knee deep in this either directly or through awareness and have always been. Anything else is BS - just like the company itself.

Also from that press release by Angela, are we to believe that the billing systems was so specific in that overages were only with USACE or has this company been overcharging all other customers as well? Maybe all of this company's customers should look into receiving almost 50% credit on all procurements.

So if this was a billing issue why are some government employees and other partner employees behind bars?

The BS from them is so deep its comical. They are perpetual liars, from the CEO down!

Copper River Information Technology, LLC is wholly owned by Alaska Native Government Services, LLC a holding company created by the former president of the Native Village of Eyak, Robert J. Henrichs.

Eyak Technology is a owned by the Eyak Corporation, which was created in 1971 by Congress as part of the Alaska land claims settlement act. Do not confuse the Corporation with the Tribe, which is a Federally recognized sovereign entity recognized by the BIA, for mostly adoption and paperwork purposes.

The tribal members receive no dividend from the tribe per se, although they do get assistance in the form of grants, a medical clinic that the tribe operates (at a loss) and other services such as help for elders, substance abuse clinics, etc.

In a town such as Cordova, substance abuse clinics are highly needed, trust me.

Eyak Corporation is what the entity that was given money, land and mineralresources, it also owns entities such as Eyak Tek LLC.

Alaska Native Government Services was originally formed by Mr Henrichs, you can look at all of the ANGS incorporation papers, as well as ppw for Mr. Henrichs' other LLC's and his controversial role as a former director of Chugagh Alaska Corporation.

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3309825/Native-Village-of-Eyak

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3305038/Alaska-Native-General-Services-llc

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3304498/Alaska-Native-Government-Services-llc

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3309845/Chugach-Alaska-Corporation

The SBA IG's report that was previously referred to in this thread, involves Mr. Henrichs business relationship with a man named Patrick K. Simpson. Mr. Simpson has several LLC's that he controls, the SBA IG's report focuses on Alaska Native Technologies, now know as ANT, LLC.

In a nutshell the report says that ANGS is a front and does not exist, that Mr Simpson is mixing his defense related stuff up with the minority owned front that is "managed" by Mr. Henrichs, a front that the tribal council had not voted on or approved, nor was it shown on their books.

Mr Simpson has another LLC called Scientific Fisheries Systems, Inc., one of the directors is a former Governor of Alaska, Steve Cowper. The other, Brian Kelly, was formerly involved in a company that was found negligent in the sinking of a factory fish trawler in the Aleutian Islands.

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3304507/Scientific-Fisheries-Systems-Inc

Sci Fish does a lot of business with the SBIR/SBTT program,

http://www.acq.osd.mil/osbp/sbir/

This would be something well worth looking into for any enterprising reporter. Check out the Paul Skvorc court filing as well as Mr. Simpson's connection to Kim Gray through the Technology Entrepreneur Coalition Inc., lot's of sleazy stuff in there.

Mr Simpson is also a partner in a management company that is affiliated with Copper River:

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3309577/JS-Consulting-LLC

Read on this long forgotten Zombie Blog, in Mr. Simpson's own words, why he got into the world of 8(a) contracting:

Once I was over the anger and devastation of having the rug pulled out from under me, I realized that if I wanted to compete for this type of work from Alaska, I needed to be on an even playing field. I immediately began to develop a new business strategy that incorporated a divesture of SciFish's DOD work to a majority Alaska Native Owned entity and then apply for 8(a) certification.



And yes Virginia, there's even a Suresh Doki tie-in to all of this:

http://www.scribd.com/collections/3309542/Cambridge-Federal-Paragon

And please, to verify any of these records do go to the State of Alaska Corporations database:

http://www.commerce.alaska.gov/CBP/Main/SearchInfo.aspx

What's curious about Copper River possibly being interested in purchasing NDC, is that Copper River doesn't really have any real money.


This next document is an FEC form S-1 outlining the acquisition of Red River Computer Company and Global Technology Resources Inc (GTRI) by Fusionstorm Global Inc..

http://www.redriver.com/markets/government.html

From the Fusionstorm Global FEC Form S-1, p 166/167 filed in August, 2011:

ALASKAN COMPANY RECEIVABLES

In March 2006, the Company entered into a loan agreement to lend $600,000 to an Alaska Limited Liability Company (the “Borrower”) to provide working capital needs to a subsidiary of the Borrower (“Alaskan Company”). This
obligation did not bear interest. It was the Company’s intention to seek approval of the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) to enter into a Mentor-Protégé Agreement with the Alaskan Company under the SBA’s Mentor-Protégé Program pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Section 124.520.

Repayment of the loan was contingent upon application to this program. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company decided not to pursue the Mentor-Protégé program with the SBA. Consequently the loan of $600,000 was deemed to be uncollectable and was removed from the balance sheet and was recorded as a component of general and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In March 2007, the Company entered into a second loan agreement to lend directly to the Alaskan Company up to $1,500,000, as amended. This loan bears interest at 12% per annum. As of December 31, 2009 approximately
$1,641,000 was outstanding pursuant to the loan agreement, including accrued interest. In January 2010, the Company executed a new $1,641,000 demand note agreement with the Alaskan Company that replaces the previous loan
agreement. The demand note bears interest at 5% per annum, requires monthly principal and interest payments of $23,504 and matures in December 2016.


During 2009, as part of the negotiations related to the sale of goods, the Company and the Alaskan Company began entering into certain escrow agreements in which the Alaskan Company signs over the rights to specific outstanding
receivable balances that will, upon receipt from the customer, be paid directly to the Company in satisfaction of outstanding receivables from the Alaskan Company. As of December 31, 2010, the Company did not have Alaskan
Company receivable balances under escrow agreement that had not yet been collected. The total outstanding Alaskan Company receivable balance as of December 31, 2009 carried under escrow agreements was $485,456.



The most interesting part of all this is the Lyme NH address that's listed on this Navy debarment letter:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/70416591/Town-of-Lyme-New-Hampshire-Assessing-Department-Dept-of-the-Navy-Administrative-Actions-for-September-2011

Let's take a trip in the wayback machine to 1992, shall we ?

http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1992-05-22/business/9205221085_1_acadia-tompkins-mulvihill

Mulvihill is a principal of Acadia Partners, the group controlled by Texas billionaire Robert M. Bass and other investors that is suing Tompkins Investment Group to recoup a $48 million junk-bond loan.

Robert M. Bass

Really ?

From Mr. Bass's wiki page:

Most recently, in 2004 he started Aerion Corp to develop supersonic corporate jets, which is the beneficiary of lucrative Federal DARPA contracts.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Bass

DARPA ?


Ah yes, DARPA, as in the DARPA SBIR/SBTT program:

http://www.darpa.mil/Opportunities/Small_Business.aspx

The Eyak Corporation is an entity that was created in 1971 by ANCSA, which was authorized by Congress to compensate Native Alaskan entities for taking their land.

When Russia "sold" Alaska to the United States, the Tlingit Indians, who were never defeated militarily, had effectively given them title to a small rock in Sitka Sound, and that's it.

The rest was "thrown in" as you will, and as you can see below, some Inupiat still pledge allegiance to the Crown too.

http://readersupportednews.org/opinion2/271-38/8515-focus-greg-palast-one-bad-ass-eskimo

It was entirely appropriate for Etok, as a head of state, to address his concerns through me, a reporter for British government television, to his diplomatic equal, the Monarch of Windsor; though, as Etok would point out, his realm was larger than Britain, with more resources. And unlike England, Etok's kingdom had never lost a war. I promised to carry his message back to Her Majesty.

Hope this clears things up.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Could not believe what I was reading. Great information that puts a lot of pieces together in understanding the amount of corruption our government faced and still faces. Much bigger than I could every imagine.

Makes me think that Eyak Technology's involvement with the Nova Datacom-US Army Core scandal has more players in it then just Mr. Babb. Scamming more than 20 Million should take more than just 6-7 people (1-Eyaktech, 2-Nova Datacom, 4- Army Core).

Bright side- This latest development does have congress investigating. Too bad it took this to look into this corruption ring that seems to have so many entities.

That's just part of the small tip of the tip of the iceberg.

Follow the money and read between the lines.

Alaska is a small state - less than a million people, citizens pay no income tax, they get money back from the state every year in the form of a dividend, and Don Young keeps getting re-elected every two years.

That alone speaks volumes.

There's no law school, no medical school and a thin back bench of rising political leaders. The state is full of end-of-the-roaders looking for one last chance to get rich, or trying to stay one step ahead of whatever law enforcement or state agency is looking for them from where they came.

There are some huge, HUGE world-class mineral deposits in Alaska. Besides gold and silver, uranium abounds as well, particularly around the Kotzebue area and in an area known as Bokan Mountain in SE Alaska near Ketchikan.

They say that people from Kotzebue and Nome are just a little bit off, if you know what I mean, and it's due to the heavy mineralization of the water in those areas. Think tailing ponds, lots of them, and kids swimming in those ponds.

At least two generations of kids swimming in tailing ponds full of mercury before they knew any better.

That might explain a few things.

The Native Corps are easy marks for some of these 8(a) middle men, former government and military types who usually have friends and contacts on the inside. They do the deals and then move on to the next village or corporation looking for the next big deal.

Chapter one of the 8(a) Middle Man's rule book is Seagull management;

Fly in, take a dump, fly off and be gone by the time the mess is discovered.

The 8(a) Middle Man's M/O is to look for a tribe, tribal entity or ANC that either has financial trouble, has a director(s) with personal financial troubles and/or substance or alcohol abuse problems (the more isolated and off the beaten path the better), with a large influx of federal money in the form of a legal settlement, as in the case of Eyak/Cordova, or some $teven$-bucks in the case of King Cove.

The SBA is just not equipped to be an investigative agency, it's purpose is to help small business, not prosecute it.

Obviously though, the system is broken and needs to be fixed.

I am sure that Nova Datacom will be taking legal action against all of you cause your IPs are being tracked you stupid shits. Haha, it will be funny to see all of you in jail with those who really frauded the government because of all the lies and slander you all are writing about Nova Datacom.

He is asking his wife Amy to max out his black AMEX!!!! buy things that FBI can't trace. WOW!!!!
I hope to GOD that he has to pay back every penny he took from us ( I said US because it's our tax money he took and lived his life, driving nice cars, living in a large expensive house, giving his wife $400,000.00 ring ect).
Alex used to go around and brag about how he give his wife so much cash and she hides all the cash. I hope FBI finds that shit,too.

All of you guys are committing a serious felony. Our marketing director Angela already posted our press release regarding our true involvement in all of this a few days ago and all of you continue to make these fallacious claims about Nova Datacom. Don't you all realize that slander and libel is a serious offense?

We've already contacted our legal department and have begun proceedings to acquire your IP addresses so that we can prosecute you to the full extent of the law!

Also, in case you weren't aware, Nova Datacom is one the top partners in the area - we are a Cisco Gold Partner, Juniper Elite Partner, and a VMware and Dell Preferred Partner. As such, we have a lot of connections and we can make it very difficult for all of you to get jobs in the Northern Virginia area.

So make it easy on yourself and just stop all these lies and distortion that you are all posting about Nova Datacom and Alex Cho, and we will just let bygones be bygones.

Are we living in the same country! And who and why are you publically calling people dumb shit when you clearly do not know about the public's/individuals right to FREEDOM of speech and opinions. If there is something that I stated as FACT and not opinion which may cause reputable damage to nova datacom than yes, I see your case. However with the invention of the internet, public opinion has and will be even further on the rise! Why do are you trying to threaten the public? You can do that to your employees because they are working for a private institution, however I am NOT a nova datacom employee. Also, you can track everyone's IP address until your eyeballs ball out, but have you heard of privacy laws!!! So you should be the one who is careful with the threats that you are publically making to invade our private identities through tracking......
Again, I repeat that I am entitled to my opinion. And I am also entitled u der the constitution of the united states to freely speak of my personal experiences with those that I have known! Lastly I am free to ask questions regarding how my tax money was miscalculated in 'overages' to the tune of 20 million! I am also free to share BOPpublic search links. If there was a mistake of the identity of a MIN CHO, which is a common korean name, than I rescind that remark. However how dare you, try and threaten us of our Freedom to share on within a public forum our thoughts and feelings....Go back to just threatening and mistreating your own employees and not US, whom live in a free country!

One more thing, joe kim said publically that he can and will make it hard for anyone here to get future employment based on their expressions and opinions. Last time I checked into labor laws, that is against the LAW. You can give past performance records (positive /negative ). However you cannot use your influence outside of that box to hinder someone applying for a position NOT to obtain that goal. For you to say that is what you are planning to do, is not a smart move!

As for your press release. Yes it is true that Angela made that release' a few days ago but then a day later her private email was copied/pasted to this forum and it made the press release look like garbage if not a scheme in itself. Maybe keeping some continuity and maybe apologizing to the public and admitting that nova datacom may have had a few bad apples but that does not represent the whole should be a better approach. Rather than just denying and threatening to shut everyone up, how about a sincere apology to the public.....have you thought about this type of positive campaign. This is damn China, you don't tey to just oppreess public opinion with tough talk and lies upon lies!!! Then maybe the public will soon forget and let bygones be bygones. Truthfully, I agree that its really non of our business where and how you get your hair cut or what you spend your money on! But it is our business to know the truth, especially if even Congress has started a probe....you get it? This is bigger than just your little world that you may control,called nova data whatever!

This is very typical of shady companies involved in scandals such as this... They think they are above the law and when they finally get caught red-handed, they have to resort to casting thinly veiled threats and lies and deceit to attempt to cover up their misdeeds or try to redirect the focus in another direction.

The fact of the matter is that Ted Hallas WAS involved in a campaign to beef up Nova Datacom's resume with false past performances in order to get NDC on the fast track to big government contracts. This went on for 3 years until he got caught! This wasn't an isolated event and it didn't happen by accident. This was all done with the knowledge and express approval of Alex Cho himself and potentially other executives at NDC. How do we know this? It was admitted as such by Ted Hallas himself in his plea bargain.

Is Nova Datacom insinuating that the plea bargain that was shared earlier is a forgery? Anyone with the desire can go down to the courthouse and get copies of all this so there is no disputing these facts!

Further, the fact of the matter is that Ted Hallas then implicated Alex Cho for involvement in what federal authorities themselves are calling one of the largest frauds ever committed against the US government. Alex WAS caught and when confronted with evidence which clearly implicated him, he agreed to work with the Feds in a several month long effort to wiretap, videotape, and collect evidence on the rest of his cohorts involved in this scheme. Alex DID NOT step down as CTO to spend time with family, HE IS IN FACT currently behind bars just like the other 4 individuals, awaiting trial where he will testify against them, after which the case against Alex and the associated charges against him will be unsealed for everyone to see.

How do we know of all this? First of all, this is alluded in the US governments case against Babb and the Khans, furthermore it's been corroborated by several very well informed newspaper organizations. On top of that, and perhaps more telling is Nova Datacom's filing to get the $2m allegedly owed to them by EyakTek. The judge ruled in EyakTek's favor because NDC has "unclean hands" according to the court records. Read EyakTek's opposition for good insight into what is really going on here...

If NDC had no involvement in all of this, there would have been no need to sue EyakTek in the first place. Is NDC insinuating that the magnitude of court papers, newspaper articles, and other documented evidence of their involvement is all untruths? I think clearly there is mounting public evidence which makes these facts indisputable.

Everything we've seen the last couple of days, from that piss poor excuse for a Press Release from Angela Inguillo to the veiled threats from Joe Kim are signs of a company that has lost all credibility and options. They are desperate and they know it and you can see they are basically running around like a chicken with their head cut off... Angela's email that was shared by the other poster a few days ago clearly reveals that they are in a campaign of denial in an effort to quell all this negative commotion so they can attempt to spin off their assets and still make a profit after all of this - yes they are scared but they still think that there is a chance they can pull a fast one and they'll be laughing their way to the bank!

The funny thing is they continue to act like victims and cant even acknowledge publicly their involvement in all of this, but the fact of the matter is that all of this was oft their own doing!

So let's get this thread back on track.

For now, we are interested in getting the truth out there about what really happened, and we need your help to prevent these scam artists from profiting from their attempt to rob the American taxpayers. If their assets do end up getting purchased by Copper River IT, or any other company for that matter, this would be a real travesty.

We need your help, please write to Senator Markey, and Sen. Claire McCaskill and let them know what is going on. Spread the word about these guys to your local news agencies, your friends, anyone who will listen. We need to keep the heat on these guys and don't let up until they learn that the American people won't tolerate this type of behavior from the companies that supposedly serve our nations interests.

Thank you!!!!! Well said. Please post addresses where these letters should be mailed. I am a citizen and a resident of virginia and I would like my voice to be heard and to count! These senators and committee leaders owe it to voters to protect us from any thieves and to restore the dignity and confidence of such voters/taxpayers. Maybe we can also send a copy of this forum to show that we do not appreciate this type of oppresssion, bullying and threats of invasion of privacy including fair rights to future employment.

@joe kim, I respectfully ask of you to answer said questions rather than bullying us to turn a blind eye. As corp of a company that you say have/has so many accolades and clout, I hope you will be better in addressing concerns, rather than treating us as idiots that don't know the first thing about rights and laws that protect our desire to know the truth!!! Again, you should reconsider a more humble approach to your so called campaign to put of the fire.....

You are a moron. Libel/slander is not a criminal matter - it is a civil matter. There is no "felony" involved.

To: Nova Staff
Subject: Ted Hallas

Nova Datacom Team,

It is with deep regret that I announce the resignation of Ted Hallas as our Executive Vice President, effective today, December 30th. In recent months, Ted has been tasked with balancing an increasingly complex familial issue and the demands of our fast paced environment. This decision was not easily reached, but mutually determined as the best course of action for all involved parties.

In the past 3 years, Ted Hallas has worked tirelessly and selflessly to help realize our combined vision of Nova Datacom. His influence, philosophies, drive, and his friendship will not be forgotten as we all continue forward in his footsteps. It is with the warmest personal regard and unending support that the executive staff wishes him the best in his future endeavors, and we hope to have the opportunity for continued success in the future.

Sincerely,

Min Cho

I can see how you would feel this way and I can even concur if I was a friend if family memeber of the Cho's. Because as they say there is always three sides to any story. Your, mine and the truth. Honestly, no one here in this forum has a right to judge or condemn anyone involved. I personally think that in a nutshell, the Cho's made a lot more enemies than friends. I am not just talking about in the last few years but rather for decades. Everything from convicted armed robbery to being convicted of insurance fraud, ALL in one family! And now this, so you can tey and understand the interest in this case. For some its just their time to 'plainly laugh in their face' or just to rub salt in the wound. But if for a second you could empathize with how they were just so awful in their heart, during their rise without one ounce of humbleness or virtue, you might be able to understand just for a moment where everyone's anger or just plain immaturity is coming from. I for one, take ownership that maybe I am taking too much glory in a families ruin, just for my own personal matters, that go wayyy back. But it really has nothing to do with if these people in the forum are happy or not themselves. It has more to do with, our nature as humans to be drawn to gossip or to just finally feel like certain people are finally getting what they deserve, based on our own personal experience with a family embroiled in so much corruption throughout decades. And with the internet and so much information being readily available to the public, it is only that much more enticing. However I don't think anyone is going to sit here and say, wow I am a moron and you are right. Because WHY then would you be in this forum at all? But in fairness, I am sure that there are many people hoping for the best for the Cho family, friends and family alike are probably praying and worrying for the sake of the children, at the least! I completely understand these sentiments. That is the reason why, that even though I too seek riches, power and wealth, I would never put on a ski mask and rob someone a gunpoint nor would I try and get rich fast, by taking what is rightfully not mine! And I think that is the difference that these people in the forum want to point out. Not once has anyone from nova datacom or alex, taken ownership of the mistakes he made or the people he hurt! I think if someone did that, the tide would turn quickly in his favor, because humans are programmed to want to forgive ans we applaud anyone who can rse above such disgrace with some honor. Especially, the korean community is disappointed in is so disappointed that someone from their very own community, would go down like this with no honor and prise! So I hope that you could rescind some of your negative thoughts about the people in this forum, because we are not the ones that have repeatedly committed such acts of disgrace and dishonor. Again I will repeat, that I am sincerely apologetic, if any part of my own personal experience with them or my opinions have offended you!

Man I think there is a trouble a brewin' for Nova Datacom. Myself and a few former NDC colleagues were contacted in the last few days by the office of the Inspector General within the DOD. Seems like there is a lot more than what's been revealed and they are looking to have a few former employees testify against them for all the sketchy stuff that went on. As if things couldn't get any worse for the Cho family, from the sound of it they are in for a lot more trouble.

The investigator did reveal that Alex is currently behind bars and will likely be spending a lot more time if these additional allegations are proven to be true (we're talking multiple years). I did think it was interesting, he mentioned that the executives at NDC were not nearly as helpful as they are trying to make themselves out to be.

Stay tuned, more will be revealed in the weeks and months to come.

So are you going to testify? Maybe the executives are more worried if they might be implicated...just an opinion before one of them pops up in the forum and goes nuts. Alex is. Alix is behind bars, awaiting trial? I hears rumors that he was out and under witness protection program.well I guess in a few months we will see the whole truth. Do you know if the public can go to watch the trial?

I will be meeting with investigators next week and if they ask me to testify I will gladly do so. All the sketchy stuff I saw like non-cleared personnel inside the SCIF and deliberate attempts to hide money from the IRS.

Why in the world would they have Alex out under Witness Protection - he is just as guilty as the rest of the people in this scheme.

I don't know about the trial - are criminal trials usually open to the general public? I'm thinking they are...

CALISTA, KOREAN FIRM JOIN FORCES
Anchorage Daily News (AK) - Friday, April 24, 1987
Author: HAL BERNTON Daily News reporter ; Staff
Calista Corp. has teamed up with a South Korea construction company to bid on major projects in Alaska, the Lower 48 and Micronesia.

The new joint venture agreement, announced Thursday, involves a subsidiary of the Anchorage based company, Calista Construction International, and Keangnam Enterprises Ltd., one of Korea's largest construction firms.

Calista is one of 13 regional Native corporations formed under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971. Keangnam is a subsidiary of Daewoo, one of Korea's biggest conglomerates.

A South Korea corporation has plunged into the Alaska real estate market with a subsidiary's purchase wednesday of the sheraton anchorage hotel from calista corp. A Sheraton press release said InterAlaska Hotel Inc. bought the hotel from Calista. The purchase price was not disclosed.

InterAlaska is owned by the Hanjin Group, a Korean conglomerate that also owns Korean Air, said Jung Sam Bae, the South Korean consul in Anchorage.

It's kind of sad that this forum/discussion died, it was a lovely discussion indeed.

Perhaps the Village of Eyak needs its own thread on Fairfax Underground, what a novel idea.

You can rest assured that when Kerry Khan or Harold Babb or Alex Cho's names begin to appear in the news again that this thread/discussion will pop right back to life.

Here's something refreshing.

The SBA Office of the Inspector General released it's latest quarterly report and the good news is that the OIG's report didn't specifically call out Alaska Native General Services, the front, oops, I mean shell company which owns CRIT, as the IG had done in their previous 2 reports.

And don't confuse Alaska Native General Services with Alaska Native Government Services, which for all intensive purposes ceased to exist in 2004 when then name of the company was changed. This little fact didn't keep them from continuing to use the old name in their biennial filings and political campaign donations however. Their paperwork shows that the shell company, ANGS, has a separate address from CRIT, but I know that's never been the case.

No wonder the SBA IG couldn't find the ANGS office, it doesn't exist !

So what if Amy's brother laid hardwood floors for a living? Is it a sin to work to provide for his family? So what if he screwed up? No ones perfect. And seriously, why bring my mom into this?! You don't know what happened to her, 'cause she did not commit suicide. And what's wrong with Amy's family? What's wrong with plastic surgery; is it sin to want to look more beautiful? Is it wrong to be loyal to your husband. Amy is not the hater, you are. You are the no bashing on someone else's family, and saying shit about them. As an adult, you should know how to control yourself. There are things you should and should not say, especially through the internet. And if you find it amusing to make people miserable, and to turn them into someone they're not, then you need help. You need Christ in your life.

You said you remember Amy's brother? I'm her brother's daughter. And i'm just saying your comments are awful. You should feel ashamed and embarrassed.

Funny, Stefan wore his pants that were way to small for his huge waist. His pants were some short that he looked liked a hobo. Funny that he is always commenting. He is the one that had a child with a woman that he roomed with and now acts like they are a couple. Don't throw stones at glasss houses brother. There is more to come.

Well judging from the characteristic misspellings, we can pretty well be sure Joe has joined the party. :)

It was actually a regular occurrence for the NDC execs to assassinate the character of their former employees but it seems these scumbags have reached new lows when they need to come online to talk trash about their former employees...

At least Stefan had the common sense to get out of that place when he smelled something fishy. Last I heard, he was working at Juniper and writing a book. From the sound of it I'd say things have worked out pretty well for him. Can't say the same for the rest of the folks at NDC...

You remember me Joe? When I quit the DSS contract you didn't even want to pay me my final paycheck! I left earlier this year and there hasn't been a day that has gone by that I've regretted my decision. I am so glad I am not working there anymore.

When the NDC execs decided to defraud the American taxpayers and screw over their employees, it became everyone's business. I happen to agree that it would be a lot easier if they simply showed some remorse. Instead they continue to act like they are innocent victims in all of this...

But they are victims - victims of their own Karma!

And Joe is the slimiest MF'er of all. Huge show off - if not his own stuff then would talk about Alex's. Total ass kisser of Alex and Min - taking their cars for oil changes and tire rotations etc. No college degree, no class, just scum. Actually his CEO and he are about at the same level. Tough to judge which one is slimier! CEO is the dumbest one though - thinking she actually runs the place!

The shit just hit the fan folks.

WashingtonPost has just reported that Alex Cho's case has been unsealed. Accordingly, he pleaded guilty to conspiracy and bribery charges at a secret hearing in September. According to the article, the feds filed court papers Nov. 3 that alleged Cho had committed obstruction of justice since his plea bargain, hence he has been detained since early November at a D.C. Correctional Treatment Facility.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/great-falls-man-pleads-guilty-in-contracting-scam/2011/12/19/gIQAa72L5O_story.html

We are heading down to the courthouse to get copies of the plea bargain and other interesting docs and will post it later.

In addition, a reliable person close to the case has revealed that Feds are now zeroing in on Joe Kim, the VP of Engineering at Nova Datacom, whom sources are saying was a close associate of Alex's who had insider knowledge and was peripherally involved in part of the scheme.

Ok folks, we got the records and uploaded them to scribd, so we're here to share them with you for your enjoyment.

Here is link to the original indictment, which displays all the sordid details regarding Alex's involvement in all of this mess:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/76155838/Copy-of-Indictment-of-Alex-Cho-CTO-Nova-Datacom

According to the plea bargain, Alex Cho will be doing anywhere from 6.5 years to 30 years in prison, with a fine in the range of anywhere from $12,500 to $250,000, plus forfeiture of all assets acquired during the time period which the scheme took place:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/76156177/Alex-Cho-Plea-Agreement-CTO-Nova-Datacom

Interestingly, it appears that he requested travel in late September on the grounds that he and his wife might explore the potential for relocating his family for purposes of security. Later documents reveal that his family has in fact relocated to California.

The final link is a request by the feds on Nov. 3rd to change the conditions of his release, on the grounds that they discovered new information that Alex committed additional acts of obstruction of justice since his involvement in assisting the feds. As such, they reversed his release and he is now at a DC Correctional Facility.

Awww... poor kids! This is so terrible!

Come to think about it, what about all the poor kids whose parents got laid off by these jerks? Those who took a job with Nova Datacom because they thought they'd be gainfully employed if they showed up to do an honest days living and worked hard... little did they know that the execs had stacked the decks and the house of cards was about to fall down... What about me and my coworkers who got laid off before the holidays with no severance and no apologies, and then even had our final paychecks bounce?

Poor kids? Oh brother...

Too funny! As I was reading the indictment, I found it interesting to read the following:

"In its Application, employees and agents of Nova Datacom, including ALEX N. CHO (“Nova Datacom Representatives”), provided false information concerning, among other things, the educational background for ALEX N. CHO, the educational background and employment status of a purported employee of Nova Datacom, and the initial intent of Nova Datacom’s sole owner to run the day-to-day operations of Nova Datacom. In or about October 2007, based in part on those false statements, the SBA certified Nova Datacom as an 8(a) small disadvantaged business."

And who do you think they are referring to when they talk about falsification of "the educational background and employment status of a purported employee"... hehehe... Hey Joe, where'd you say you got your college degree from again ;)

Hey Angela Inguillo,

Do you have anything to add to what has been stated in the media? Your last Press Release would have led some to believe that Nova Datacom was simply an innocent bystander in all of this, happily assisting the government with their investigation. But based on what we are seeing from the WashingtonPost article and also from the indictment, it seems as if Nova's involvement has been anything but innocent. From the sound of it, Alex was talking to USACE folks even before he got EyakTek involved. So it sounds like Alex was the mastermind in fact...

What say you guys now? Any upcoming press releases we can expect to respond to this?

The case between Nova Datacom and EyakTek was settled out of court last week, and we've managed to get a copy of the agreement which we've posted here for your perusal:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/76531638/Nova-Datacom-EyakTek-Settlement-Agreement

Basically, EyakTek came out of this smelling like roses, and Nova Datacom is still left in the lurch and will have to attempt to recoup any money that is owed to them directly from USACE.

In a nutshell, here are the terms of settlement agreement:

1) EyakTek will assign the previous invoices directly to USACE
2) EyakTek will return $907,113.54 back to USACE which USACE previously paid to EyakTek for the two invoices numbered 011793 and 011794 that NDC previously submitted to EyakTek.
3) Within 21 days, NDC will provide all documentation regarding the true and factual costs of goods and services rendered in connection with these two Purchase Orders. NDC will turn these over to EyakTek whom will in turn pass these along to USACE.
4) From this point, EyakTek is completely released from any further contractual obligation, and now NDC must attempt to get their money directly from USACE. This effectively removes EyakTek from the equation moving forward.

In case anyone is having a hard time reading between the lines, this is a resounding victory for the taxpayers! It is very unlikely that NDC will ever see another dime from USACE.

Essentially, when NDC attempts to get whatever money they claim is owed to them from USACE, USACE will want a complete and itemized accounting of all previous invoices in order to properly determine overages. Seeing as the $25m in invoices were padded somewhere in the area of $20m, it is unlikely the remaining $4m that NDC claims they are owed will ever be paid as these likely represent just a fraction of said overages.

Yes, the unrelated case they are referring to is the case involving Ted Hallas and his former colleague at MED Trends where they were assisting each other with false past performances. When the SBA started looking into this and basically caught Ted Hallas, he ratted out Alex Cho and the USACE scheme in order to save his ass.

I am sure eventually the USACE scheme would have seen the light of day given how brazen it was, but when Ted got caught it simply expedited things. I am sure that Alex and Min are sorry they ever hired Ted Hallas - they probably think they could have gotten away with it all if not for him...

Reminds me of those old Scooby Doo episodes - "we would have gotten away with it all if not for those meddling kids!". LOLz...

Who suffers at the end of the day? Seems like Cho's and Kim will end up making a significant amount of money based on the sale of the company. Although this would not even be close what they would have made had the scandal not been discovered - but still a lot more than what they deserve...

It's the employees that are suffering and will suffer with lost wages and benefits... cant these owners be personally sued by employees for their doings?

Is this confirmed? Have they indeed sole their assets? Can anyone on the inside confirm this? Any current employees wish to tell us what is going on at the moment?

I've never heard of anything like this before, but they might have a case if they got a single lawyer to represent them, like a class action lawsuit. Why should the Cho's and Kim reap the benefits of their fraud when the rest who played by the books suffer.

Ugh... This is greed at its finest...

From what we've heard in the office, Min is only being investigated to the extent that she assisted in the obstruction of justice when the initial investigation began, working with Alex and several others to delete emails and other evidence that might be used against them. To that extent, she is only seen as a corroborator and not the main culprit. We've heard she'll also probably be placed on the governments debar list (EPLS) since she was only listed as the CEO and owner of the company so that they could get minority woman owned status - everyone knows that Alex was the real owner and face of the company.

A few reliable sources who may be asked to testify against the Cho's and Joe Kim in court have stated that there is more to be revealed - apparently USACE might have been just the tip of the iceberg and Alex may have made inroads in a few other government agencies as well.

To top it off, Joe Kim is being investigated for obstruction of justice (for deleting critical emails and other assorted records), as well as tax fraud, lying under oath to federal investigators, etc.

There is lots more to come...

What was the sentence? Is that another reason why the company wasn't under his name? Obviously, the woman owned status helped - but maybe he couldnt become a citizen based on his criminal past and that affected how the company could win federal contracts?

I find this a very interesting case on Federal Contracting Fraud. I'm just wondering, will the Government get any of this money back? It sounds like there is a lot of things like this going on within Federal Contracts. IF the Government Patrolled these small business programs better and made the thieves pay the millions back that they steal, the US probably could bail itself out of debt.

According to court records, even though the majority of documents have been unsealed, a few remain sealed for reasons yet unknown. The following materials remain sealed for the time being:

1) transcript of the hearing held on Nov. 4th, 2011 (the day after authorities learned of new obstruction of justice charges committed by Alex)
2) the Governments motion to unseal case
3) transcript of another hearing held on Nov. 30th, 2011
4) Defendant's Opposition to Government's motion to unseal case (Yes, Alex really did not want to public to learn the details surrounding this case and has gone to great lengths to ensure that it remained sealed for as long as possible)
5) Government's reply in support of it's motion to unseal case
6) transcript of hearing held on Dec. 14th, 2011
7) transcript of hearing held on Dec. 16th, 2011
8) Court's Order concerning the defendant's incarceration (I think we already know that they decided to keep him behind bars for the time being).

Eventually, all of this will be unsealed and when it is it I am sure it will reveal much more about Alex's shady behavior and insight into his true character.

What we've heard from insiders close to the case is that the obstruction charges stem from his involvement to cover his tracks in other illicit activities, in other words, the scheme at USACE might have been just one scheme amongst many. It is also alluded that he made attempts to hide money from the investigators so that it couldn't be forfeited, purchasing gifts for his wife and through other attempts.

There is also reason to believe that he gave instruction to IT personnel within Nova Datacom to delete emails and other records which might implicate him in further activities. As part of his original plea bargain he was also required to work with the IRS to give them an actual accounting of Nova Datacom's finances since 2007. According to sources close to the investigation, apparently he directed IT personnel to delete information which might have provided the IRS with details concerning tax fraud taking place at NDC.

I'm pretty sure the reasons that some of these documents are still sealed are for the same reason his initial case was sealed. It seems highly likely that if he was involved in similar schemes with other government agencies, then there are probably a number of active investigations taking place. The feds will need to keep this tightly sealed until they are ready to pounce...

Alex is truly fucked... he is going to be an old man by the time he gets out of jail at this rate...

Joe Kim was recently arrested and charges are pending regarding his involvement in obstruction of justice. It is expected that Joe will be heading up the IT side of TorreyPoint's East Coast operations, although not sure how the recent arrest will affect that decision...

Well according to the court records he'll be doing a lot of that... looks like anywhere from 7 years minumum to upwards of 30 years. And that was before the new information came out about further obstruction of justice charges. He'll be an old man by the time he gets out...

Wow 7 years minimum is a long time to be away from the kids. In the regard I do have much sympathy for those family. What boggles my mind is didn't they think about such repercussions. While conjuring up the entire scheme? I do feel sincerely sorry that Amy has to raise her kids alone. And I know that the feds require that ppl serve most of their sentence too. I think it is upwards of 75%. Sad.....

Bdot: how accurate is this info? On his plea agreement it showed the sentencing guidelines and I heard that in federal cases the judge has to be within the guidelines and that there is a minimum he has to serve under the point system. And he has not get been moved into the federal prison system, which makes it seem that his official sentencing has not taken place yet. .....

Not really sure where you are getting your information from, but I find your claims doubtful. Take a look at Alex's plea bargain - http://www.scribd.com/doc/76156177/Alex-Cho-Plea-Agreement-CTO-Nova-Datacom

In section B. Acceptance of Responsibility, it gives Alex a total preliminary offense level of 33. The maximum points that can be allocated in Federal Sentencing Guidelines are 43, so for Alex to receive a point level of 33 is very high. Officials are taking this very seriously because of the bribing of public officials.

Also take a look at section D. Criminal History Category and Applicable Guidelines Range for more information, it shows the stipulated time that Alex will be doing based on US Federal Sentencing Guidelines - since this is not his first crime (he is a Criminal History Category II) coupled with the guidelines, it states it will be anywhere as low as level 27 (78-97 months) or as high as level 39 (292-365 months). And this was before the new obstruction of justice charges which will only make his current offense level of 33 even higher.

For additional information, take a look at US Federal Sentencing Guidelines basics -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Federal_Sentencing_Guidelines#Guidelines_basics

It states, "A 2- or 3-level offense level decrease is typically granted for acceptance of responsibility if the defendant accepts a plea bargain. However, the decrease will not apply if the defendant demonstrates behavior, such as continued criminal activity, that is inconsistent with acceptance of responsibility."

And even thoough these guidelines are not mandatory, Federal Judges almost invariably use the Guidelines at least as a starting point when sentencing federal criminal defendants. Additionally, there is specific federal case law that indicates if the Judge is to increase or decrease that recommended sentence by more then a certain percentage, there must be written reasons why they are departing from that sentence.

All of this means based on the Federal Sentencing Guidelines he will need to do anywhere from 6.5 years all the way up to 30 years. And his points will be going up as a result of his continueed criminal behavior after signing the plea agreement. Bare minimum I can't see him doing anything less than the 6.5 years (minus time already served).

Did you know that on the day of sentencing, the public or any victims can go to court and plead to the judge not to deviate from the federal sentencing guidelines. I have never heard of a case, where they would supsend 12 years, especially for a repeat offender. That is just unheard of. And the principle that is in the law books "is the punishment must fit the crime". This is a of course from morality of law. I say this because judges are appointed and not elected. Thus they carry a heavy burden to keep in force the morality of law and punishment. I honestly cannot see 12 years being suspended. But in this country, you never know. If victims of nova datacom want their voices heard, the best thing to do is to write a letter to the presiding judge, prior to the actual sentencing date and even better to show up in court. I am not sure if the victims will have the floor or the ear of the presiding judge, should they attend, however writing letters, is more powerful than one might think. On that note, I wish both the victims and alex a fair and just sentencing!

I experienced the same kind of rude behavior with my former employer, except that I fired them and escorted myself off of the premises.

I have no regrets whatsoever, in fact since my departure I've discovered even more hinkiness on their part, I'm convinced more than ever that I made the right move.

Another contractor has been charged as an Army Corps of Engineers employee is expected to plead guilty in one of the largest federal contracting bribery schemes in United States history, charging documents said.
Robert L. McKinney, founder and president of the Waldorf-based Alpha Technology Group, was charged in federal court Monday with bribery of a public official, documents show.

He joins four other defendants -- two Army Corps contracting officials and two businessmen -- charged in the alleged $20 million kickback scheme.

I was personally in the office a few weeks ago when the feds came in and escorted him out of the building in handcuffs. The word in the office is he's been charged but he's free on bail for the time being until his court hearing. He's been back in the office and milling about acting like nothing happened.

Although he's slated to head up the East Coast engineering operations when the TorreyPoint acquisition is complete, I'm not sure if that will happen now that he's facing charges in this mess...

TorreyPoint acquisition is underway. The following email was sent out by Min Cho yesterday. They are saying Min Cho will be pocketing $2.5m in this deal.

-------------------------------------------
From: Min Cho [mailto:mcho@novadatacom.com]
Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2012 2:05 PM
To: Nova Staff
Subject: Torrey Point Acquisition

Nova Datacom Team,

As many of you know, discussions have been underway with executives at Torrey Point over the last several weeks regarding a potential Torrey Point acquisition of Nova Datacom's assets and contracts. I am pleased to announce that as of this week we have reached such an agreement in which Torrey Point will expand their East Coast operations while at the same time ensuring the continued employment of as many Nova Datacom employees as possible.

In the coming weeks, the agreements will enter into the final stages and legal documentation will be fully drafted. At that point a full transition will take place and you will start to meet some of your new executive team. Additional efforts to realign the brand name with Torrey Point will take place.

During the acquisition discussions, we did our best to ensure that as many people as possible would be unaffected by this decision, however there will be a small Reduction in Force of all non-essential personnel and those whom are deemed not to align with Torrey Point's vision for their expansion of their East Coast operations.

As for myself, it is with deep regret that I announce that I will be stepping down as your CEO effective immediately, in order to pursue other ventures and to spend more time with family. As I will be stepping aside, it is with grade pride that I announce that Joe Kim will be heading up the entire East Coast engineering operations for Torrey Point. I wish him the best in his new role and I'm sure he will be a great leader and visionary in the months and years ahead.

I want to thank all of you for your continued perseverance and support during the last few months. I know it has been difficult amidst all the controversy, but we wouldn't have been able to make it to this point without all your patience, diligence, and hard work. Since we started this company over 4 years ago, all of you have tirelessly and selflessly contributed to help realize our combined vision of Nova Datacom.

It is with the warmest personal regard and unending support that I bid you all the best in future endeavors, and I certainly hope we have the opportunity to cross paths again in the future. I know you all will continue to work just as hard at making Torrey Point one of the best IT firms on the East Coast.

Sincerely,

Min Cho
Chief Executive Officer

Dear Min,
I read in Alex's plea bargain that they are going to confiscate any funds from nova datacom to repay the 20 million of stolen tax payers money. Will the 2.5 go towards the repayment or to you and Alex's wife and kids? Just for a moment if you could be transparently honest, I think you can. Get some sympathy based on the fact that this must be such a horrid experience for you and your extended family. Just my opinion. And there is so much factual information out there that everytime you lie or twist the truth, you lose more and more credibility!

Sorry, that is impossible, these reprobates have no empathy whatsoever. See the previous posts regarding the new business model today.

It's all about how much money they can put in their own pockets, the pockets of their girlfriends and/or wives, and thier families.

I couldn't agree with you more. Personal attacks such as this serve no benefit.

Having said that, Tim's wife did work at a massage parlor, so to call her a whore might be a stretch... but Joe did say she gave him a happy ending once when he went for a mas-sag-ee... (Ok, turn over Joe)...

Well, this all goes to show that if you want to brazenly steal, $500 from
the taxpayers, you can -if you have the right partners. The law enforcement, newscasters, FBI that continue to congradulate themselves for uncovering "the biggest fraud in history" barely cover the scam conducted at 1600 Penn. Ave.
The shell company name was "Solyndra" and soon after receiving the 500 mil.
went bankrupt taking the taxpayer money with them. So if you want to pull a theft like this ,get a good celebrity spokesman with lots of experience at
defrauding the govt. IT also helps if that partner in crime belongs to a group
that can deflect any criticism with cries of "stereotyping" I suppose that 500 mil. is small change compared to the 700 Billion given by Bush and 850 Billion by Obama to banks,primarily Goldman-Sachs, but the really bold move was putting the very execs. from Goldman who engineered the even larger-multi-trillion dollar- housing crisis scam as directors of the Dept of Treasury and Federal Reserve.These scams-much,much larger- recieve scant attention and no prosecution from the self-aggrandizing "heroes"you hear on television. Wake up voters. Don't get caught up in made for TV mini-series sideshows while your tax dollars get shifted to political cronies of both parties. By the way-a small house in FFXCO getting replaced by a mc-mansion ! Shocking! This has to be the first case of this happening. Thank goodness for the cunning and vigilance of law enforcement and neighbors. I hope this insidious trend doesn't tke hold.

Thank-you Chan and others who have contacted me privately.I cannot claim all the credit for this piece,however. The criminals who perpetratedthis crime and numerous others similar wrote the script. I just kept my eyes open and assembled all the available facts. This was not that difficult ,but it has
escaped the attention of numerous "award winning journalists" and their award winning staffs. The current criminal in chief only distinguishes himself in the dollar ammounts and brazenness with which he operates. His predecessors were no better or worse, but they could not shield themselves in the "invisibility cloak" which is generated by fear of criticism of such an "historic" figure. While the public is distracted with dramatic raids and posturing news conferences, the really big crimes go unreported.Persons wishing to explore the concept of investigating the obvious further are encouraged to visit the " Ron Paul "thread on this site and please ,go to the indicated links of Dr. Paul speaking for himself, not my analysis or that of others with more colorful screen names than myself. I don't hear Ron Paul saying the things attributed to him by others and I checked his claims in his video against his voting record and -how refreshing-he's not a serial liar at least on these points as are all his opponents .Thinking beats emoting when the fate of a nation is at stake and actions speak louder than political rhetoric."I'm Blake Lane and I approved this post." Paid for by the Committee

A former Army Corps of Engineers employee admitted in court Monday that he participated in a $20 million bribery and kickback scam authorities have called one of the largest in the history of federal contracting.

Michael Alexander, 55, of Woodbridge pleaded guilty in the District’s federal court to charges of bribery and conspiracy to commit money laundering. He faces at least nine years in prison under federal guidelines, although that number may drop depending on his cooperation with authorities. A sentencing date has not been set.

Copper River IT purchased their assets, you can see they've already started updating their web site

http://www.copperriverit.com/core-competencies/education-services/instructors/

Those are the old instructors at Nova Datacom.

Also take a look at http://www.copperriverit.com/about/location/

It lists their metro DC location as Nova Datacom's old offices at 4501 Singer Court in Chantilly.

A lot of people were laid off and those that remain are all desperately looking to find employment elsewhere...

What a joke... some no name company coming along and picking up NDC's assets for a fraction of what it was worth... what a sad state of affairs... this is such a far cry from what NDC was and ultimately could have been had it not been for the greed and corruption of a few key individuals.

As others have written, Min, Alex, Ted, they were all losers that couldn't have made a successful business unless they stacked the decks in their favor. Joe Kim is a slimeball who went along with it and treated people like garbage along the way but it looks like he's getting his along with the others. He now gets to work for some no-name company w/ no real prospects of being a power player on the scene. Too bad Joe burned all those bridges cause no one is going to be offering him any positions any time soon. Too bad Joe, looks like those visions of grandeur and being the man are coming to an end. Enjoy working for that no-name company and your one-way ticket to loserville.

Angela Inguillo is a victim of her own stupidity. There were signs everywhere that NDC execs were corrupt and that executive management was treating employees terribly, yet she continued to deny these claims and even went so far as to try to paint a picture that they were the victim of lies and distortions from their competitors, distributed press releases indicating that everything at NDC was business as usual, and it was a wonderful place to work.

She's been really hard at work moving all the marketing collateral and everything else over to the Copper River IT website and I can only believe it is because they are paying her a ton of money to assist in a smooth transition, perhaps she is hoping no one will realize that Copper River is a joke and just a front for a bunch of former crooks and management that lack people skills.

In a way I feel sorry for her because as a marketing manager she pretty much got handed the worst situation that someone in that position could ever have to deal with, but at the same time she is at much at fault for not paying attention to the signs and getting the F out of dodge when she should have...

What a freaking joke this whole company and executives have become.

With the money it sold for, Min Cho will say "C YA SUCKAS". She will keep half and save the rest for her brother. She has already been telling us that her brother when he gets out and on his feet will be richer and better off than he has ever been!

It only sold for $1.2m and most of that went to pay for the Cho's back legal defense fees, a very small amount was pocketed by Bill Halliday and some went to Joe Kim.

Besides, it's going to be anywhere from 7 to 35 years before Alex sees the light of day. Sentencing Guidelines require him to do the bare minimum so he won't get to spend of dime of any of that money for at least 7 years.

NDC sold for a meager $1.2m - approx. $500k went to Min, another $500 went to back legal defense fees, roughly $170k went to Bill Halliday for orchestrating the buyout, and somewhere around $30k went to Joe Kim.

Pathetic...

Some interesting reading here for anyone who has been following this case. The transcript from the courtroom hearing between Nova Datacom and EyakTek back in December:

http://www.scribd.com/ndc_exposed/d/85493770-Eyaktek-Novadatacom-Settlement-Transcript

According to their financial disclosure statements and transcript from the case, it seems at one point back in November/December, Nova Datacom was operating with an Accounts Payable of $4.27M and an Accounts Receivable of $4.3M leaving them with an operating budget of only $30,000.

No wonder they had to lay so many people off, they literally had no cash in the bank to weather any storms! They better thank their lucky stars they got puchased by Copper River IT - also explains why Copper River was able to pick them up for literally pennies on the dollar.

What I thought was so telling was the judge when she stated:

"...although EyakTek's withholding of the funds in escrow has undoubtedly harmed the financial health of Nova Datacom, I don't doubt that point at all. Nova Datacom cannot make a clear showing that the harm it has presented is
irreparable; i.e., that going out of business is attributable even primarily to EyakTek's withholding. It's attributable to that person's engaging in this illegal conduct and resulting disbar -- debarment."

One other thing I thought was interesting, according to the transcript, Min Cho was fully aware of the fraud BEFORE Alex was arrested and began assisting the feds... so the fact that she was acting like she had no idea about these charges is total bunk. It's all in the transcript folks...

Breck Taylor was a character played by actor Ben Cooper in season 10, episode 25 of Gunsmoke called, "Breckinridge" that originally aired March 13, 1965.

In this episode Cooper played a young attorney newly arrived in Dodge who works the law to keep his client out of Matt's clutches and then has ample reason to regret it.

Ever the proverbial character actor, Cooper had previously played roles in classics such as Johnny Guitar, The Rose Tattoo and Gunfight at Comanche Creek in which Cooper played Billy "Kid" Carter.

I'd venture a bet however that the OP is referring to Breck Taylor, the former President of Red River Computer Company of Claremont NH.

Mr. Taylor was prosecuted last year for false claims agains the US Government to the tune of about 2.3 million dollars, a crime of the most despicable kind.

The link to the house that is for sale in Lyme, NH appears to be the former home of Mr Taylor, which he forfieted as part of his deal with the feds.

Originally on the market for 2.3 million, they've slashed the price down to a mere 1.5 million and some change.

Red River Computer was the mentor to Copper River in the Small Busniness Administration 8(a) mentor-protege program, perhaps that is the connection ?

From the Red River Computer Company website:

http://www.redriver.com/markets/government.html

"Red River is a certified small business we also have a teaming relationship with Copper River Information Technology, a tribal entity firm, which enables us to satisfy your 8A and set-aside procurement needs."

According to this document filed with the Securities Exchange Commission,
Red River Computer was to be the mentor to Copper River in the Small Busniness Administration 8(a) mentor-protege program, but that arrangement apparently fell through.

From page F-106:

http://www.nasdaq.com/markets/ipos/filing.ashx?filingid=7735696

In March 2006, the Company entered into a loan agreement to lend $600,000 to an Alaska Limited Liability Company (the “Borrower”) to provide working capital needs to a subsidiary of the Borrower (“Alaskan Company”).

This obligation did not bear interest. It was the Company’s intention to seek approval of the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) to enter into a Mentor-Protégé Agreement with the Alaskan Company under the SBA’s Mentor-Protégé Program pursuant to the Code of Federal Regulations (“CFR”) Section 124.520.

Repayment of the loan was contingent upon application to this program. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company decided not to pursue the Mentor-Protégé program with the SBA. Consequently the loan of $600,000 was deemed to be uncollectable and was removed from the balance sheet and was recorded as a component of general and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2009.



Perhaps that is the connection the OP is referring to ?

Apparently she is leaving him because of all this mess and the fact that he'll be doing about 6 years behind bars. Plus since all this took place he apparently has only been earning an annual revenue of about $96k through his company Technology Lifecycle Management, at least according to Manta:

What I think is funny is how former NDC execs feel the need to tarnish the good name of their former employees with talk about defrauding taxpayer money? Wasn't this the whole idea behind the entire bribery scheme involving NDC execs and contract officers within the Army Corps? What about the attempt by NDC execs to create fictitious past performances to get preferential treatment through the SBA Hubzone program?

I think I speak for everyone here that if the former NDC execs simply showed a bit of remorse for what they did and their terrible treatment of their employees then people might be more willing to let bygones be bygones... unfortunately they continue to act like they are innocent victims in all of this and only resort to dragging other peoples names through the mud.

This doesn't just go for former execs who were involved in the scheme- I worked w/ a lot of others on the DSS contract and we were discarded like trash when they no longer needed us. Didn't even give us a severance package of any sort...

Also, the feds came to learn that Alex had some of NDC's IT staff involved in deleting emails that would further implicate him in other crimes, and could be used by the IRS to determine that improper bookeeping was taking place.

Also as Mr. Configure would say, there is more to come. Stefan likes to fuck his pet goats and I even heard he had sex with his mom. He once had a job as a circus clown. He's a bitch boy that can't compete with big boys. He wears womens undergarments under his suits at work. He eats a lot of eggs and has really bad farts too! His mom was a hermaphrodite. If I ever see him I will kill him and his girlfriend and kid too, I'll fucking kill them all muhahahaha...!

You hear me Stefan? Wherever you are, you aren't safe... whether it's Kensington, MD...Herndon, VA...or Ashburn, VA... or in Rockville where his mom lives or the rest of his family... you aren't safe. If I see you in public I will slit your throat you dirtbag. The Wiley Coyote is ready to play...

Mr. Configure, are you delusional or something? You do realize that threats made like this constitute a crime and the person you are threatening can now easily subpoena the site owner for your IP address. Who is willing to bet that one of those IPs resolves to a certain address in Potomac, MD? That probably wouldn't go over too well with the judge at your sentencing in May...

Just a thought... you should think twice before making threats that could come back to haunt you...

I met alex cho in his neighborhood a couple years ago while I was restoring a wood door entrance-way down the street. I wondered why he stalled on getting his front doors refinished. He was nice to me , seemed successful, very confident, and anxious to beautify his house. Probably to keep up the delusion of grandeur. Nothing out norm. I searched to follow-up to find out where he is, and found this blog. Wow, the pigs are at the federal $$ trough. May they all rot in prison. If his doors were rammed down, does anyone know how I can get the contract a fix them? ha, ha.

I was not suggesting alex was infidelous, I only met him a couple of times and was polite and respectful. In reading this blog, it seems Alex was trying to prove something to all the women , maybe everyone he associated with. Quick buck artists always manipulate their way to achieve their goals. They always like to image success. Moving to Great Falls was a tip off. The illegal shortcut carrot was dangled out in front of Alex and he grabbed it. We are in the age of immorality.

Showing remorse would require a level of self-awareness and empathy that these people simply are not capable of.

Ted,

If this is truly you and not someone masquerading as you, I just want to extend my sincerest thanks to you for reaching out in an honorable manner. I think I speak for everyone else when I say that all the employees have only wanted a certain level of humility and remorse from the former NDC execs that treated employees terribly and discarded them like trash when they were done with them.

Having said that, why this change of heart after the previous attacks levied against some of the former employees?

It was well known that Min was a CEO in name only, so they could obtain the "minority-owned, woman" status, but everyone knew that the company was really Alex's. Min had not a clue about running a technology organization which was painfully obvious when talking to her... Alex was the one steering the ship, she just pretended like she was at the helm.

Ted Hallas
Leader, Businessman, & Mentor
http://www.ted-hallas.com/

I have extensive experience in business management consulting, strategic business development, and consultative sales. I also have held several senior management positions with Fortune 100 companies as well as small business. My experience involves analyzing potential market size, opportunities, and barriers to entry while at the same time devising and implementing action plans for significant revenue growth.

As EVP of Operations for Nova Datacom, I was primarily responsible for corporate strategy, business development and sales. I was able to drive new business by developing and establishing strategic high level relationships and partnerships within the systems integrator community. I also developed strategic alliances with large OEM’s and startup companies with emerging technologies. I defined our organization as a value added integrator and was responsible for branding our company with “Security is in our DNA.”

Prior to Nova Datacom, I was Vice President of Strategic Alliances with Nortel Government Solutions. My responsibilities included: managing a team of sales professionals who focused on selling to, through, and with Systems Integrators and Value Added Reseller channel partners. I was also responsible for setting strategy and executing upon a sales plan to work with our strategic alliance partners. I also created and implemented the SDB Prime program. This was a program that employed a sales strategy that included a cooperative of small disadvantaged businesses to capture set-aside federal contracts.
My management career also included growth opportunities within the start-up community that included optical solutions, security solutions, and virtualization solutions.

Additionally, I was a senior manager with Lucent Technologies Internetworking Systems where I was responsible for IP convergence, network infrastructure, wireless technologies, security products and solutions supporting the enterprise, multi-national accounts and service provider market, including developing Lucent’s channel development strategy.

What's even more silly, he takes credit for coming up with Nova Datacom's branding and other successes but fails to realize if one does a simple google search on his name there is page after page of documents covering his involvement in writing false past performances and involvement in the whole sordid affair.

Last I heard, usually Leaders and Mentors aren't those who are involved in Federal crimes and tend to be people of integrity, not those who are willing to deceive and steal from taxpayers.

If I traveled that far and only got to see a legislative assistant I'd be pissed. At least The Dom was gracious enough to meet with them. As corrupt as that old bastard is, he does treat Alaskans well, even those of us who've been tracking him for years, and yes, I've been tracking for years, many many years. (hint, hint)

On a personal level I like the guy, I've met him many times, as a public servant however I believe that he's way beyond his sell-by date and should have moved on years ago.

I wonder if they were discussing the SBA OIG's report 10-11 with the SBA attorney ? The piece of paper that is the front, oops, I mean shell company which controls Copper River was investigated about 2 years ago by the OIG.

http://www.sba.gov/office-of-inspector-general/872/5168

DC is such a small town, speaking of Legislative Assistants, Scott Leathard, pictured here poking his head in the door, is the son of Pete Leathard, former President and COO of VECO. VECO was the oilfield services company that was caught up at the center of the FBI/DOJ Polar Pen investigation in Alaska.

Former VECO President and Kid Fucker Bill Allen cut a deal that kept Leathard and his associates, as well as Bill Allen's family from prosecution by the DOJ.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VECO_Corporation

On August 31, 2006 officers with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Internal Revenue Service raided the offices of several prominent members of the Alaska Legislature. Raided were the offices of Sen. John Cowdery (R-Anchorage), Senate President Ben Stevens (R-Anchorage), Rep. Vic Kohring (R-Wasilla), Rep. Bev Masek (R-Willow), Rep. Bruce Weyhrauch (R-Juneau), Sen. Don Olson (D-Nome), and Rep. Pete Kott (R-Eagle River). The investigation involved allegations of illegal gifts to law makers from VECO.[3] Senator Olson was never charged but it was found he had turned down illegal campaign assistance.[4]

Also named in the search warrants were VECO officers Bill J. Allen, Rick Smith and Pete Leathard.



What a small world it is indeed, it just happens that Mr. Leathard lives next to Nichole Sprinzen, who also has close ties to Dom Young.....in more ways than one too....

http://dc.blockshopper.com/blocks/by_city/washington-near_northeast/street/3rd.ne.st/600-699


620 3rd Street NE Nicole H Sprinzen
622 3rd Street NE Scott P Leathard



http://www.mainjustice.com/2012/02/13/fraud-section-trial-attorney-returns-to-akin-gump/

Trial attorney Nicole H. Sprinzen returned to Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP last week, leaving her post as a trial attorney in the Justice Department’s Fraud Section of the Criminal Division.


Akin Gump of course, is the law firm to which Don Young, pictured here, has paid over 1 million dollars to in order to keep him out of jail.



http://www.adn.com/2011/05/03/1843402/young-still-raising-money-for.html

Since 2007, Young has spent more than $1 million on lawyers, mostly from his campaign account. The legal expense fund, set up in 2008, doesn't have the same restrictions on contribution limits and corporate contributions as a political campaign account. The fund has raised $179,000 since Young opened it in 2008. Disclosure forms filed last month show that since the fund opened, $98,415 total has gone to Washington D.C.-based law firm Akin Gump.


Oh, and the fat guy with the curly hair ? Jon Devore, another old Stevens/Murkowski/Young hack who works for Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot, the Bittner of course being Bill Bittner, brother of Catherine Stevens, wife of Ted.

It's a small world after all.

I am betting Alex Cho and the rest of the former NDC cronies wished they knew these Copper River folks before this whole sordid affair went down. Having all these connections to friends at high places could have been real useful, and they might have been able to use their "get out of jail free" card.

Instead, looks like Cho and Hallas will be spending a loooooong time behind bars. The moral of this story - it pays to have connections to high ranking government officials.

There is a huge difference between the actions of Hallas and Cho's. One a Crimino-meter scale of 1(speeding) to 10(murder) lets see where they rank. In fact please provide your rankings as well. Would be interesting to see where the averages are.

As wrong as it is Hallas provided false references for a friend that he was trying to help out without knowing any better that he was committing a crime, and that the guy was scum!
Crimino-meter ranking - 3

The Cho's - Yes, the Cho's not just Alex - Min knew about what was going on as well. She guarded all the cash so knew who was spending where. So the Cho's bribed federal employees and came up with a plan to defraud the government and tax payers $780,000,000.00 - actually more like $1,000,000,000.00 after the additional 25% they were going after not to include the $45,000,000.00 that had already been contracted in this scheme. Guys - this is just one customer; rumors are that there are at least two more that are in the limelight right now.
Crimino-meter ranking - 7

What do you think? Where should the Crimino-meter be on these?

I would have to agree w/ you. As someone who formerly worked for Nova Datacom and familiar w/ the crimes committed by these individuals I would have to say that I would not rank the crimes committed by Ted to be on the same lines as that committed by Alex. However, I disagree w/ your assertion that Ted was simply helping out his friend at MED Trends w/ no awareness that what he was doing was a crime. On the contrary, his former colleague at MED Trends also agreed to write false past performances for Nova Datacom as well - it was tit-for-tat and Ted was fully aware that what he was doing was illegal. Having said that I would still rate his crimes as a 3.

I would agree w/ you that Alex's crimes rank at a level of 7. He was fully aware of what he was doing and definitely had his eyes on a much larger prize - this was fraud at its finest and there is no doubt they would have kept stealing money from the taxpayers had Ted not revealed the scam to federal investigators.

Can you reveal any more information regarding the rumours you mentioned? I am very interested to hear what other organizations/customers in addition to USACE might have been involved.

On another note, does anyone have any more information on Joe Kim? Where does his case stand at this point?

Making threats to harm people ?

That must be the Copper River way.

I had a similar experience with these folks, BB & JM (who is no longer with the company) threatened to kill the former CEO, TD, by wanting to "put a target on his back and shoot him."

Their exact words.

One of these cats even has a history of not only beating up his ex-wife, but then ignoring a court order to stay away from her as well. He was subsequently arrested and charged with contempt of court after he ignored the court order.

The ex ended up dropping the charges only after the State was going to present witnesses to testify about the prevalence of women who are abused by their husbands/boyfriends, who then drop the charges after being coerced or threatened by them.

These are not nice people by an stretch of the imagination, they're fucking sociopaths. It makes sense that Joe Kim is employed by Copper River, I'll bet that he fits right in there.

The older guy in the picture above looks like that ass kissing idiot Bill Halladay - are they related. Based on some of the characterization about CRIT it only makes sense that he was instrumental in getting Nova's assets acquired by them. I am sure Joe Kim misses the ass kissing that he used to get from Bill- now that Bill is probably higher up in the food chain. Especially since Bill's ass kissing style is that of french kissing. EWWW!

Ok folks, we went down to the courthouse today and saw Ted in all his glory, looking dapper in his power suit as is quite customary for "The Closer". It was only a status conference and not much was discussed other than setting the stage for what is to come.

Here is the schedule as outlined by the judge for the upcoming sentencing of Ted Hallas:

- Sentencing Memorandum will be submitted on 08/29/2012
- Hallas can submit his response to sentencing by 09/05/2012
- The actual sentence itself will be handed down on 10/30/2012 at 12:00 PM at the US District Court in Alexandria.

Make sure to request your PTO now so we can all go down on the day of his sentencing and wish him the best in his new venture! In other news, it seems Ted has been hard at work creating his new homebuilding business "H2 Homes" - not really sure how he plans on running this operation behind bars but knowing how successful he was at launching Nova Datacom into the limelight we are certain it will be an instant success. After all, what else would you come to expect from the man who was responsible for coming up with the slogan "Security is in our DNA".

Only 2 more weeks and we will start to learn the fate of our other dear friend Alex Cho!

Be sure to check for updates to the State of Alaska court system website at

www.courtrecords.alaska.gov

Here's a story about Alaska's dirty little secret - The physical, mental and sexual abuse of women and children and the system which allows for their perpetrators to remain free and unchallenged. Sadly enough, many times the abusers are people with positions of power or authority which makes these crimes that much more heinous.

The story is about the abused women's shelter in Emmonak, which is an outlying village in rural Alaska.

To some, the conditions in Yukon Kuskokwim regsion of Alaska could be considered third-world like, with a little help of course from the greedy Kass'aq's just trying to get their share.....

Still, some people just don't get it. Happy Day in Court !

Alex is not in prison yet, hence not listed as being in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons. He is currently being held at the DC Correctional Facility at 1901 E Street, S.E. Washington, DC 20003 pending his sentencing in November.

You can find details and see his status at the following link:

https://www.vinelink.com/vinelink/initSearchForm.do?searchType=offender&siteId=9900

His offender ID is 333432.

Once he is sentenced and moved into the prison system, the BOP site will change to reflect his status.

LPG,

We will be posting some of the plea documents and other interesting tidbits shortly - indeed it appears that there is yet another Nova Datacom employee who may have been implicated, and in fact this employee is still running management operations at Copper River IT, the company that purchased Nova Datacom. From what we've heard it is only a matter of time before he will be taken into custody.

Ok folks, went down to the courthouse today to get all the docs from Kerry Khan's court case. We managed to get access to his plea bargan and all we can say is holy crap... just when you thought it couldn't get any worse for these guys, Kerry unloads a whole bunch of info which implicates quite a few folks.

Now mind you, not all those who have been implicated are guilty of any crimes, but they may have been tangentially or even unwilling participants in the alleged crimes involving the steering of contracts to Nova Datacom. Those who have now been implicated in Kerry's plea bargain are as follows:

- A former Nova Datcom employee by the name of Nick Park, aka Nochol Park.
- Nova Datacom Employee A, who was the President of Nova Datacom. Our sources reveal that this is likely to have been Min Cho who operated as the Owner, CEO, and President of Nova Datacom.
- Nova Datacom Employee B, who was the Director of Systems Integration Programs. Our sources tell us this is a gentleman by the name of Paul-Michael Ferguson.
- Nova Datacom employee C, who was Director of Bids & Proposals for Nova Datacom. From in or about November 2006 through in or about October 2009, Nova Datacom Employee C was the Proposal Manager for EyakTek. Our sources tell us this is a woman by the name of Alexis Dimouro.
- Another Co-Conspirator 3 is listed. Our sources reveal that this is likely to be Joe Kim, Vice President of Engineering at Copper River IT. From the surface it appears that CC-3 was responsible for running shell companies on the side for the purpose of hiding and laundering money.

This is the first time we've seen any direct allegations made against the President of Nova Datacom. If our sources are correct and this is Min Cho, it is pretty damning to say the least. The testimony states that Nova Datacom Employee A had full knowledge of the scheme and was directly involved. The plea bargain states "In or about the Spring of 2007, Khan met Park and Nova Datacom Employee A at a Starbucks Coffee shop in Northern Virginia, where Khan was provided at least $20k in cash." It also goes on to state that Park, Cho, and Nova Datacom Employee A had the intention to conceal and disguise the nature of the funds and in fact Nova Datacom employee A was holding approximately $2m in a trust account to be paid to Khan and these funds were deposited into this trust account under the guise of a "bonus".

"In or about the Spring of 2007, Khan met Park and Nova Datacom Employee A at a Starbucks Coffee shop in Northern Virginia, where Khan was provided at least $20k in cash." It also goes on to state that Park, Cho, and Nova Datacom Employee A had the intention to conceal and disguise the nature of the funds and in fact Nova Datacom employee A was holding approximately $2m in a trust account to be paid to Khan and these funds were deposited into this trust account under the guise of a "bonus".

Also according to the plea bargain, on at least two occasions, Khan, Cho, Paul-Michael Ferguson and Alexis Dimouro met at a hotel to discuss steering the CORES contract to Nova Datacom, in order to keep the discussions secret.

Nick Park, who was the one responsible for introducing Khan to Cho back in 2007 was also recently arrested and his case is now in the legal system as well. More will be revealed as additional testimony comes out in all of these cases.

Sounds like there will be more trouble ahead for some of the the Nova Datacom/Copper River IT cronies...

Ok folks, we have absolute certainty now that Nova Datacom Employee A is Min Cho. After re-reading the information in Nick Park's case (USA v. Park) there are some telling clues which reveal this:

- Park and Cho agreed to use Nova Datacom as the corporate vehicle to obtain government contracts based on Park’s relationship with Khan. Park and Cho agreed to make Nova Datacom Employee A the President of Nova Datacom to obtain 8(a) small disadvantaged business status from the SBA, which would assist Nova Datacom in its efforts to obtain government contracts.

This really couldn't be any more explicit, there was only one person who acted as President of Nova Datacom who was instrumental in obtaining the 8(a) small disadvanted business status and that is Min Cho.

Several folks have stated that Min Cho acted like she had no clue that any of this was taking place when Alex was arrested. But for anyone that has any remaining doubts as to her involvement, the evidence paints a picture of someone who was not only intimately familiar with the entire scheme, but actually involved.

- In exchange for Khan using his official position to direct the orders to Nova Datacom, Park, Cho, and Nova Datacom Employee A agreed to provide things of value to Khan.

- Park obtained the cash for Khan’s payment from Nova Datacom Employee A. Nova Datacom Employee A knew the $10,000-$15,000 in cash was intended for Khan in return for Khan’s official assistance in directing the order to Nova Datacom

- On another occasion, Park hand-delivered a cash payment of $40,000 to Khan at a Starbucks Coffee shop in Northern Virginia. Park obtained the cash for Khan’s payment from Nova Datacom Employee A, who brought the cash to Park at the Starbucks Coffee shop. Nova Datacom Employee A knew the $40,000 in cash was intended for Khan in return for Khan’s official assistance in directing the award to Nova Datacom.

- In or about June 2007, Public Official C used Public Official C’s official position to direct an order through the USACE to Nova Datacom for equipment to be provided to PM DCATS. In exchange for Public Official C directing orders to Nova Datacom, Park, Cho, and Nova Datacom Employee A agreed to provide things of value to Public Official C.

For your reading pleasure we've also provided links to copies of the plea bargain in Kerry Khan's case, as well as the information in the case against Nick Park.

My gut tells me that Paul-Michael and Alexis were not engaged in criminal behavior. Sure they may have attended such meetings but they were not part of the "inner circle"... I am absolutely certain they are simply corroborating witnesses in all of this and pretty sure this will be fairly evident when all the evidence comes to light.

It does suck that they got their names dragged into all of this...

Why couldn't Min fire her? Was she protected for some reason? How do you know Min didn't like her?

BTW, speaking of Min, has anyone seen her? Where is she at and what is she up to. It looks like she's probably going to have to forfeit a lot of the profits she ended up with from the sale of NDC to Copper River. IS she still trying to act like the innocent bystander?

Just in case anyone is interested, here are details on the upcoming court cases for Theodoros Hallas (AKA Ted Hallas) and Young Cho (AKA Alex Cho).

Ted's sentencing will be in Courtroom Number 24A, 4th Floor on October 30th, 2012 AT 12:00 P.M. He'll be serving anywhere from 2-3 years based on federal guidelines.

Alex' sentencing will be in Courtroom Number 24A, 4th Floor on November 7th, 2012 AT 1:30 P.M. He'll be serving anywhere from 6.5 to 22 years based on federal guidelines.

The Courthouse address is listed below and it is located at Third Street and Constitution Avenue, Northwest, Washington, D.C. It is located one block west of the United States Capitol. The building faces Constitution Avenue where Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenues have merged.

There are two convenient METRO subway stations within walking distance to the Courthouse: Judiciary Square (Red Line) which is located at the east side of 4th Street between D & E Streets and Archives-Navy Memorial (Yellow Line) which is located at 7th and Pennsylvania Avenue.

The judge is also accepting letters, if you have anything good or bad to say regarding Alex' or Ted's character (or lack thereof). These letters often make a difference when the judge is choosing how to sentence the criminal based on the guidelines. If you would like to write the judge, he can be reached at the following address:

Judge Emmet G. Sullivan
U. S. District Court
for the District of Columbia
333 Constitution Ave., N.W.
Washington, DC 20001

What an odd coincidence, Copper River used to pay for my vehicle too.

Funny how they couldn't take care of the simple stuff like providing business cards, updating my job description to match the scope of work of the contract that I was on, modifying the contract to require a security clearance which was necessary for my new position, and to work with the client to make sure there were funds available to pay me since my burn rate had gone up. The long and short of that inaction was that I had to take about 1 1/2 months off at the end of 2010, unpaid, because there weren't enough funds left on the contract to pay me.

I had been trying to get Copper River HR people to look at these issues and what did they do ? They ignored me.

There were too many signs that things weren't right; The SBA investigation into Alaska Native Government/General Services and Patrick Simpson, the constant moving of the offices and changing of payroll and benefits administrators, no office furniture, sloppy, inaccurate corporate filings with the state, having me ship boxes of "radios" to Korea through the clients' warehouse........on and on......

And THEN I find out about the President of their supposed SBA mentor going to prison......

Those reviews on Glass Door are VERY accurate, I should add my own some day.

Please tell the new HR girl that Copper River was the most incompetently run company I've ever worked for, there isn't even a close second.


And they treat people badly too. Very badly.

Alex and Min have gone to considerable lengths to hide their money and criminal behavior. They are hoping that when the dust settles they'll still have access to millions of dollars stashed away that might have made the whole scheme worth it. I applaud you for coming out to do your part. Let's make sure these criminals don't end up with a dime of our taxpayer money.

You could get in touch with someone from the FBI’s Washington Field Office or possibly contact the Department of Defense’s Defense Criminal Investigative Service. However, I would probably suggest sending an email out to Micael Atkinson or Bryan Seeley, they are the Attorneys that work in the US Fraud and Public Corruption Section and are the ones responsible for building the case against Alex. Not only will they likely find this information to be useful they will probably refer you to an agent in the FBI who you can talk to. Their email addresses are listed below:

Seriously, all of you are a bunch of fucking idiots. We asked you all nicely to stop with your lies and slander and all this utter bullshit and all you have managed to do is to keep this thread alive long past it's expiration date.

Keep spreading these rumors about Alex, Min, Ted and myself, along with other former Nova Datacom employees... it's just making me laugh. Meanwhile, virtually all of our assets have been purchased by Copper River IT and we are continuing to grow and expand our sphere of influence. We are becoming the next powerhouse in IT here in Northern Virginia. Some of you may find it difficult to find jobs in the IT community as a result.

By the way, our legal department will be handing some of you lawsuits in the next few weeks... fucking idiots. Meanwhile, I'll be the one smiling here with my nice bonus payout from the sale to Copper River. I'm sure all this venting makes you all feel better but at the end of the day which one of you is wearing Armani suits and driving an M3?

Good luck in court assholes!

What's wrong with this picture ?


An cheap Italian suit and a crappy German car, Joe ? Are those really your ultimate goals in life ?

Pretty sad.

That powerhouse which you speak of can't even get its corporate filings right as Copper River and Giani/Simpsons consulting business, JS Consulting, seem to be out of compliance with the State of Alaska Division of Corporations.

Just sitting here in my house, not far from where Mr. Giani supposedly lives, wondering where Copper River IT got any money to pay for any bonuses?

I have some ideas about that...

Like perhaps the $600 million+ attributed to DoD active duty payroll for the Ketchikan Gateway Borough in 2009 (it was zero all years prior) that has now moved to Valdez and nearly doubled to $1.2 billion for 2010 (zero all years prior).

This, according the USDA's Economic Research Service.

I don't know if you ever been to Alaska Mr. Joe Kim, but Ketchikan doesn't have the sidewalk space - let alone housing for $600 million in DoD active duty payroll, and Valdez certainly doesn't have $1.2 billion in DoD active duty paychecks boosting its economy.

Maybe Congressman Don Young knows where that money came from and where it's really going?

FYI, $650 million in DoD active duty payroll for Ketchikan in 2009 is nearly the same amount paid out for the Anchorage and Fairbanks installations combined.

Gosh, I sure hope that Black Budget Funny Money isn't financing a horse breeding program for the Mexican drug cartels or perhaps a Pakistani terror group. I don't think they smack your hands and put you on the EPLS for that. It's far more likely you'll get the unwitnessed-accident treatment for that kind of sloppiness.

P.S. The Alaska Native Corporation parent company board members don't go to jail, just the suckers downwind...

What makes you think you could influence any IT company's hiring decisions (besides your own)?

Let me guess, you would call someone and say not to hire a new network engineer because of some blog posts about your shitty company? I might put the fact that I wrote about your corrupt ass on my resume just to see if it helped me to get a job from your competitors.

Douche Bag

(n.) 1. "The Man" or "Whitey"; 2. a person with little or no perspective on the important things in life; 3. one who prioritizes an expensive car and/or flashy clothes and the other trappings of success over and above his/her individuality, happiness, ethics, family, friends, pets, and basic human decency; 4. one who attempts with all their being to be something they are not in exchange for what they perceive to be personal gain, i.e. a sell out; 5. A partner (or one who aspires to be a partner) of a large international law firm or a corporate equivalent.
Don't get me started on Tim. That freakin guy, always dating girls just out of high school, driving a BMW (on lease!) wearing an Armani suit and still living in a rented apartment with two roommates, what a douche bag.

Look at that guy, 58 years old, spray on hair, already on wife and family number 3, out dancing like it was still 1977 and he's at Studio 54. He is such a flaming douche bag.

Folks,

Final Presentence Investigation Report was put out by the prosecution in the 'USA v. Hallas' case last week. If you recall from the plea bargain that Ted agreed to many months ago, his preliminary offense level was found to be in the range of 17-19, which stipulates anywhere from 24 months on the low end to 37 months on the high end for sentencing.

From what we've learned from those who were in court last week, the prosecution is leaning towards the lower end of the spectrum based on Ted's ongoing assistance with the investiation. It appears that he will most likely be spending about 2 years behind bars and will likely pay a fine anywhere from $5 - $50k.

We will be heading down to the courthouse this week to obtain copies of the sentencing memorandum and any other paperwork we can get our hands on. Remember, Ted still has a bit more time to respond to the sentencing memo through his attorney so nothing is set in stone as of yet.

His court case is coming up at the end of Oct. And then in November we have the sentencing of Alex Cho, AKA Young Cho, the not-so-innocent mastermind behind this whole sordid scheme.

We will continue to keep you posted as details emerge.

Folks,

Just a heads up that the sentencing for Young Cho AKA Alex Cho has been changed. It is now scheduled for December 4th, 2012 at 2PM EST in Courtroom 24A before Judge Emmet G. Sullivan.

Ted's sentencing is still scheduled for October 30th, 2012 at 12PM EST, also in Courtroom 24A before Judge Sullivan.

The Courthouse address is listed below and it is located at Third Street and Constitution Avenue, Northwest, Washington, D.C. It is located one block west of the United States Capitol. The building faces Constitution Avenue where Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenues have merged.

There are two convenient METRO subway stations within walking distance to the Courthouse: Judiciary Square (Red Line) which is located at the east side of 4th Street between D & E Streets and Archives-Navy Memorial (Yellow Line) which is located at 7th and Pennsylvania Avenue.

Don't forget folks, the judge is also accepting letters, if you have anything good or bad to say regarding Alex' or Ted's character (or lack thereof). These letters often make a difference when the judge is choosing how to sentence the criminal based on the guidelines. If you would like to write the judge, he can be reached at the following address:

Judge Emmet G. Sullivan
U. S. District Court
for the District of Columbia
333 Constitution Ave., N.W.
Washington, DC 20001

Hope to see you all there!

This just in folks - Ted Hallas' Sentencing Memorandum was just released by the Attorneys for the US District Court. We managed to get a copy down at the courthouse and it looks like he is going to be getting a downward reduction due to his involvement in building the case against his former colleages at MED Trends, as well as Alex Cho and other principals at Nova Datacom.

As such, he received a 5 point reduction from level 19 to level 14, which stipulates anywhere from 15-30 months. They are recommending that he get the low end of the spectrum, so he will be spending 15 months behind bars, followed by 3 years of probation.

We've downloaded a copy of the memorandum and are providing a link to it below:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/110653687/Hallas-Sentencing-Memorandum

Some of the other things that were very telling from reading the document:

- "Nova Datacom was the type of enterprise in which a person with the defendant’s character flaw could prosper"

- "the principals at Nova Datacom embraced the defendant’s business plan to grow Nova Datacom’s contracting business by using false past performance references"

- "there is no doubt that the defendant was part of a corporate culture at Nova Datacom in which fraud on the government was an accepted way to grow the business and enrich the officers."

Also, interestingly, it does not appear that Ted will have to pay any restitution as according to the docs, "the defendant does not have the ability to pay an immediate fine", which essentially translates to "his ass is broke".

We will keep you posted as more is revealed. Alex's sentencing memo should be released very soon and we do not expect to see such dramatic reductions because Alex was caught lying to investigators numerous times, even after getting caught and agreeing to be honest and forthcoming with details of the scheme. He is likely to get somewhere between 7 and 10 years behind bars.

Happy Reading folks!

Wow - every time a new document comes out it is just so revealing, and after digging even more into Ted Hallas' sentencing memorandum, we found out about the involvement of yet another player in these scheme, a man by the name of Oh Sung Kwon. We went down to the courthouse to pull up any associated information we could find on this man and now it appears that at least 4-5 additional companies are being investigated as well as a handful of additional players.

In addition, Min Cho is implicated several times in these docs for involvement in this scheme. Whatever claims she has that she had no idea or involvement in any of this is simply bunk. Why charges have not been pressed against her is still beyond my imagination as it is clear she had involvement and lied to investigators.

We've uploaded the statement of offense for Oh Sung Kwon for your perusal:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/110683857/Oh-Sung-Kwon-Statement-of-Offense

There is some interesting insight into the overall timeline, and also reveals when Alex became aware of Ted's cooperation with the feds.

- In or about January 2011, after Kwon had paid bribes to Public Official C, Kwon learned from Alex that Hallas was under federal criminal investigation for submitting false past performance references to federal agencies to obtain government contracts for Nova Datacom. In or about February 2011, Alex told Kwon that Alex intended to meet with Hallas to obtain a status report from Hallas on the criminal investigation. Floowing Alex's meeting with Hallas, Alex sent a text message to Kwon in Korean that stated "I'm fucked". Kwon understood from Alex's message that Hallas was cooperating with the criminal investigation and Hallas' cooperation would implicate Alex.

- Through June 2011, Alex and Kwon met following Alex's meetings with the criminal investigators to discuss the information disclosed by Alex and the direction of the investigation. Min participated in some of those meetings.

- On August 18, 2011, at the request of Min Cho, Kwon met Alex and Min at Nova Datacom's offices. During the meeting, Alex intentionally and silently motioned to Kwon that Alex was wearing a recording device.

Happy Reading!

Harold Babb was sentenced last week. He was the director of contracts at EyakTek and was a key figure acting essentially as a middle man between USACE and Nova Datacom.

He received 87 months! That's over 7 years folks! He is also required to forfeit $689,342 and to pay restitution of $9.4 million to the federal government. Alex Cho is likely to receive an even stiffer penalty than this since he was the main mastermind behind the entire scheme.

After all this time it seems this saga is finally coming to an end. After burning so many employees and discarding them like trash, it seems that Alex and Ted are finally getting what they had coming. It's funny how karma works... I'm glad to see that justice is being served and this reestablishes my faith in the criminal justice system.

Too bad for him, even though he'll only be spending 15 months behind bars, he will never be able to get a job in this industry ever again. His reputation is toast. Just google his name and you will see what I'm talking about.

Folks,

Ted Hallas (through his lawyer) just responded to the sentencing memorandum and what a whopper they are proposing to the judge.

Not satisfied with the fact that the US Attorneys already suggested reducing his Offense level from a 19 to a 14, and proposing the low end of the spectrum for sentencing of only 15 months behind bars, they are effectively asking the judge to show leniency and give him NO time behind bars.

On multiple occasions he even went so far as to claim that his wife and children have severe health problems and they would suffer if he spent any time behind bars. He also is claiming that he has a severe depressive disorder and the judge should show leniency because of this.

Here is the link to the doc for your perusal:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/111131984/Hallas-Sentencing-Memorandum-Response

As outlined in the doc, some interesting things are mentioned:

- As detailed more fully in the PSI Report, Mr. Hallas' finances are stretched to the limit. He is heavily indebted to the federal government for income tax obligations, the Maryland state government, as well as to various credit card companies.

- His felony conviction will deprive him of certain employment opportunities for the rest of his life.

- Mr. Hallas and members of his family have been the subject of vicious entries in a blog focused on the local government contracting industry.

- The media coverage and the stress and public shame heaped on Mr. Hallas as he has been awaiting sentencing since his guilty please more than one year ago… have been a form of punishment of a different, but meaningful nature. As further evidence of the weight of this matter, Mr. Hallas has been treated by mental health professionals for major depressive disorder.

- Mr. Hallas has a substantial negative net worth and substantial financial obligations

He received over 15 letters from family, friends, cousins, even former colleges from Nortel and Nova Datacom.

Folks, if you were burned by Ted like many were during his tenure at Nortel, Nova Datacom, and other companies, make sure you let the judge know. What a travesty this would be if the judge actually fell for any of this. The trial is only a few days away so make sure you send those letters as soon as possible.

Happy Reading!

What a crock of shit. This guy performed a criminal act, point blank. He didn't give a shit about his employees or robbing the government during his tenure at Nova Datacom. Furthermore, wasn't he initially dishonest with the feds when they asked him about his involvement. It's not like he assisted the government out of the goodness of his heart... he was trying to save his ass. WTF Ted, don't you know it's time to pay the piper.

Wasn't it just a few months ago that he himself was making verbal threats against former Nova Datacom employees on this very site. He didn't seem to overly concerned when he was on the wielding end of the stick. Fuckin asshole...

Heck, looks like even Carole Robertson decided to join in on the action. How he managed to pull the wool over her eyes is beyond me, but she actually vouched for the guy, even after she got fired from NDC after this whole debacle went down.

Due to Hurricane Sandy, the courthouse was closed on Tuesday. Looks like he'll get to enjoy a few more weeks of freedom... Ted's sentencing is now set for Nov. 19th, 2012 at 2PM EST in Courtroom 24A before Judge Emmet G. Sullivan.

Hope to see you all there!

If that is the case, then every other person guilTy of robbery should be free as well....

Nova Datacom Exec Gets 15 Months For $20M Contract Scheme

By Stewart Bishop

Law360, New York (November 20, 2012, 5:26 PM ET) --

A former senior executive at information technology and planning company Nova Datacom LLC was sentenced Monday to 15 months in prison, after pleading guilty last year to helping orchestrate a federal contract scam that allegedly cost the U.S. government more than $20 million.

U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan of the District of Columbia imposed the sentence on Theodoros Hallas of Rockville, Md. After prison, Hallas was ordered to serve three years of supervised release, according to the docket.

WHY ISN'T MIN CHO IN JAIL. SHE WAS THE CEO OF THE COMPANY, IS SHE THE ONLY ONE GETTING AWAY WITH THIS CRIME?

Options: ReplyQuote
Re: FBI Raids Neighbors House
Posted by: Mary Jo Green ()

Yes, CEO min Cho committed a wide variety of deceitful and amoral protectionist offense while she ran around the office screaming unitelligent meanderings in hungul as if her head had been cut off like a little chicken. She was clueless, and as a result she is likely to be discredited by her peers, community, and by those to whom she even promised good projects for her favorites. No doubt, she was approached to be set up from day one to ptotect the family enterprise that would eventually bring great discredit to her, her family, her co- workers, her stanoffish partners, benefactors who never really learned the truth. And probably said what many thought as convictions began to climb: "Wow, I thought this place operated in a compartmented manner, now I know why". Nevertheless, I am glad she liked to talk with me. But I could always sense an undeliying rage and a cancerous chunkn of dissertion. Follow the money and see where it really goes. The many thieves from many organization now convicted and have time to think of their theft can now reflect on all the craziness that caused their fall into the darkness, not to mention a few pretty wild paties at home and abroad. For what? It was crooked from the start wasn't it-- this is what the court docs have showed. Thank God the investigators acted swiftly before anyone really got hurt. What a soory farce. The Investigation teams would be wise to continue this for a year or more longer to get to the bottom of it all to learn just how these criminals got themselves into any ugly situation in the first place--an environment that leaves so much open to our imaginations, and one that, unfortunately would adversely impact so many good people whom needlessly had to suffer. Min had to hide everything and play musical chairs in many closed door and shut room meetings including her own little dictatorial platform, from which continuing deceit would attemp to put as good a face as possible to cover a quickly matastasizing cancer of lies. Oh how it must have hurt. Yes, I think most of those of us who worked with her for over two or three years, have come to see her as what she ultimately became: a simple bank clerk who got herself wrapped up in an ugly swim way in over her head, and far out to sea. From where I sat, there would be no rest from being on the receiving side of veiled deceit and unexplained dalliances into the absurd. The real crime here, as I see it, is that the sentences of the many convicted criminals were far to lenient. People who break the trust of the American taxpayer demand that the real price of grand theft and fraud to hard-earned taxpayer funds to support hedonistic life-styes, houses, a mistress across the Pacific, luxury cars, jewels, large amount of funds moved overseas to who plied their trades and snuggled way too close to the enterages of the convicted USACE managers would make for a great best selling book. And with a little more investigative prowess to bring all thevdocs and discussions together in a way the defined how and why this all began would surely find a hefty book advance that would strikevfear into snyone serbing in a governent trust position. Seems like a good backdrop for the next 007 movie-- with the opening seen on a flight to Seoul to find the little vixen stumpet and her new wheels and fly bed. What a travesty? It should make anyone want to throw up in the laps of those convicted and others who pobably should be convicted. Or make you want want to vomit all over Min's lost soul? And think of all the truly dissolutioned friends of Min, Bill, Joe, and other managers who made conscious decisions to remain at the helm to salvage what was possible once they knew the facts were out then chose to cross the river to secure resurrection and redemption over time. Was there ever a conversation that didn't quite feel right? Did any of us ever get to see numbers that were correct that couldn't be tainted if only due to the early fraud that started to bring out the physical, emotional and psychological chains that invisibly wrapped themselves around the necks of the dozens of good and innocent employees Nova Datacom? I can only hope that for those caught in the middle of this ugly firestorm that they learned a few great lessons and will commit themselves to find ways to spin off new companies where they can be free to conqueor the space they ruled and also had high hopes for contiuning to command with their excellent skills and credentials. The lesson then, for all who have visited this lengthy tome of "angst released" and finger pointing to deal collectively with the misfortune of untold sadness and psychological scaring that must still exist for some, and will forever be for some others an event that will take time to fathom and uncommon courage to walk away from when the good minds decided to step up and out. I wish for those of us who remain to come together and seek and honorable exit or comfotable future where we are, one that can propel the innocent to accomplish great things again for a worthy leadership team that can set us free to do the great work we know we can for the American taxpayers. Quite a learning experience thus far,wouldn't most of us agree? For our own sake, I hope we can recollect our pride, and repurpose ourselves to want to do the right things with those we've grown closer to as a result of what we have been through together and somehow rid ourselves of the nightmare of having to sit with, or stand in front of (or worse) directly interface with those who somehow were taken down an evil path, and couln't escape the addiction of doing things that fully (or partly) adversely impacted our own lives, as well as those of family members, partners, customers and the other innocents that didn't see it, until it was too late. I need a new pair of shoes this weekend that will help me walk fearless and lead me on a new path. Anyone want to go shopping with me? Lets get back to making a future we can be proud of. I'm in. Anyone else?

WASHINGTON—Nazim S Khan, 49, the brother of a former program manager with the United States Army Corps of Engineers, was sentenced today to two years in prison for his role in a case involving bribery, kickbacks, and federal government contracts. Khan, of Accokeek, Maryland, pled guilty in June 2012 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia to a charge of conspiracy to commit interstate transportation of stolen property. Upon completion of his prison term, Khan will be placed on three years of supervised release. He also has agreed to an order of forfeiture in the amount of $83,403.

The reason that Min Cho is not in jail is because the investigation is still on-going.

From the Office of the Inspector General Small Business Administration
Semiannual Report to Congress Fall 2012

http://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/FINAL_FALL%202012_SAR.pdf

Page 8:

In a continuing multi-agency investigation, 12 individuals have thus far been charged in a scheme involving more than $30 million in bribes and kickback
payments.


There are two other notable write-ups as well, Copper River makes it into the latest 2012 SBA OIG semiannual report to Congress on page 32.


Here is some background on that particular write up.


ROM 10-16 - SBA’s Planning and Award of the Customer Relationship Management Contracts, 6/29/10
Date Issued: Tuesday, June 29, 2010
Report Number: ROM 10-16


http://www.sba.gov/office-of-inspector-general/874/5203



"The former contracting officer who awarded the contracts also told us that he was under extreme pressure from senior SBA officials to quickly make the awards to Copper River and DRT"

"Ultimately, Copper River did little, if any, discernable value-added work for this procurement."





On page 15 of the 2012 semiannual SBA/OIG report to Congress we find this little nugget:

Individual and 8(a) Participant Suspended

The SBA suspended an individual and an 8(a) Business Development Program Participant for making false statements to the SBA and allowing the participant to act as a front company for entities that were not approved to participate in the 8(a) Business Development Program. Front companies deny legitimate 8(a) participants contract and development opportunities.



I'd bet lunch at Subway that this passage relates to the SBA OIG reports 10-11 and 10-07, both of which deal directly and specifically with the holding company of Copper River, Alaska Native General Services, LLC.



Report 10-11 - Irregularities Involving Alaska Native Technologies, LLC, 4/29/10
Date Issued: Thursday, April 29, 2010
Report Number: 10-11

http://www.sba.gov/office-of-inspector-general/872/5168



Report 10-07 - Audit of SBA Regulations Relating to Unconditional Ownership Requirements for Indian Tribes,
1/25/10
Date Issued: Monday, January 25, 2010
Report Number: 10-07
Date: January 25,2010


http://www.sba.gov/office-of-inspector-general/872/4863



No wonder these Copper River boys had to hire Jon Devore to straighten things out, it seems that the SBA OIG is very well acquainted with this gang.

This was not blown out of proportion. They stole tens of millions of dollars. I saw the expensive cars and expensive remodeling of a house first hand. The guy had no job and had all this stuff. And everyone is not in jail yet. More to come I hope.

I can imagine how stressful it must be for family. but if u take the time to read ALL of the indictments it is a class a crime. at some points, services were never even rendered but invoices were paid. and the large sums paid out for zero service speak for itself. i am sure many would agree that citizens of this country would rather pay 2800 as opposed to having billions of dollars stolen of our hard earned money. also some of the accused involved are NOT first time offenders. in fact, one of them has been to jail before for robbery....maybe that individual should look deep inside and ask himself why he thinks it is okay to rob, steal and take from innocent people. for the sake of the innocent family members involved, i hope that he has learned his lesson and will never scheme to take what does not belong to him. time heals all wounds, and hopefully your family will move forward and do positive things while healing.....as well as giving back to the world you live in.

FOlks,

Young Cho (AKA Alex Cho) had his hearing delayed. Sentencing will be taking place in a few weeks. We will get the dates and other relevant information up here shortly.

TO the previous poster who said this was blown out of proportion - a $47 million dollar scheme to defraud the government and taxpayers doesn't really seem out of proportion. The additional $980 million contract they had their eyes on doesn't sem out of proportion.

Alex and his cronies wanted success, and the worst part of it all is that they wanted success at the expense of others. They treated a lot of people like crap when they thought they were on top, but it's all coming back to them now. The courts will take a look at all the evidence and will give him an appropriate sentencing based on his actual involvement. The judges don't base their findings from watching the news which according to you was blown out of proportion. The judges in fact look at the evidence and attempt to come up with a fair way to achieve justice.

Seems like a very light sentence has been given out to all the parties involved so far.
Very eager and curious to see what Alex Cho receives, anything under Ten years would be a joke.

Let's hope the judge throws the book at Alex.

That's a shame, I was hoping that they'd get some quality time in a real prison, you know, like Super Max or something.

I agree, yet it was expected being a federal crime instead of state

Min's day in court is surely coming. They've got to convict all the others first to be able to set the record and timelines perfect. My reading of all the court documents indicates the Min Cho knew exactly what was happening, and she clearly aided and abetted, lied incessantly, and even worse, led others to believe in things that were never true. She stole money, pissing good people off. The investigative authorities have done superb in this multi-faceted case, and while it is far from finished, I would expect the various authorities to come down hard on the evidence against both her and her scheming brother Alex Cho. That is what the long delay is really all about. Min Cho lied to many government executives to hide the truth, to spin the story another way, and to hold out for as long as she could. Business women of the year....hardly, crook of the decade? Well, does anyone really disagree? Stay tuned. The best part of this fascinating multi-jurisdictional investigation is being saved for the end game so that the warning shots that must be fired across the proverbial private sector bow can be heard crystal clear. You do something like this, you are going away for a long time and you will lose everything dear to you. This investigation will also lead to stiffer penalties to be levied under further investigations that are likely to grow out of this monstrosity, and probably involve many of the same people.

Nova Datacom, President To Plead Guilty In Bid-Rigging Case


Law360, New York (March 26, 2013, 3:32 PM ET) -- Nova Datacom, one of the tech contractors embroiled in the largest bid-rigging case in U.S. history, and its president will plead guilty during an upcoming hearing to new charges, including misrepresenting the company's ownership to win lucrative contract awards as a disadvantaged small business, the company told a federal court Monday.

Nova Datacom, along with president Min Cho, notified the District of Columbia federal court Monday of their intent to plead guilty. Nova Datacom already has shut its doors, and other executives, including Cho's brother, Young Cho, have pled guilty in the wide-ranging probe. The charges are part of a larger, ongoing investigation involving several companies, more than $30 million in bribes and alleged plans to steer a contract worth more than $1 billion.

Nova Datacom was owned by Young Cho, also known as Alex Cho, from 2004 to 2007, but he transferred full ownership to the company to his sister in 2007, according to criminal charges filed March 14 against Min Cho. Under Min Cho's ownership, the company was able to qualify as a woman-owned small business under U.S. Small Business Administration's 8(a) program for disadvantaged contractors.

The criminal charges against Cho say she lied about her intent to run the day-to-day business of the company and was aware that her brother and another Nova Datacom employee intended to withhold evidence during the DOJ's investigation, even physically breaking a computer hard drive in his effort to destroy evidence relevant to the investigation.

She participated in some of the bribes, paying $800,000 to buy a coffee shop, called Seven Monkeys, in a wealthy area of Seoul, South Korea, for a corrupt U.S. Army Corps of Engineers officials, and giving herself a $2 million bonus from Nova Datacom, in order to hold the money as a gift for another corrupt official upon his retirement from the corps, prosecutors say.

Cho had been cooperating with investigators since October 2011, when her brother told her that he'd gone to the feds to admit previous obstruction. The DOJ is seeking forfeiture of $6.88 million from Cho.

Alex Cho, Nick Park, a former Nova Datacom employee who later opened his own business, Unisource Enterprise Inc., and Oh Sung Kwon, also known as Thomas Kwon, the co-founder and chief executive officer of Avenciatech, Inc., have pled guilty and are awaiting sentencing.

Min Cho and Nova Datacom are represented by Barbara Ann Van Gelder and Mary Kim of Dickstein Shapiro LLC.

The cases are USA v. Nova Datacom LLC, case number 1:13-cr-00084, and USA v. Cho, case number 1:13-cr-00083, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.


http://www.federaltimes.com/article/20130325/ACQUISITION03/303250004/New-charges-filed-bid-rigging-case?odyssey=tab%7Ctopnews%7Ctext%7CAcquisition


Nova DataCom’s website is no longer active. An attorney for the company did not respond to messages Monday on the charges, but a plea hearing is scheduled for the company and its president next month.

Separately, prosecutors filed bribery and other charges against Min Jung Cho, who is listed in charging papers as the president of Nova DataCom and as the sister of the company’s chief technology officer, Alex Cho. Court papers show Alex Cho began cooperating in the investigation about two years ago.

While the Nova DataCom website isn’t active anymore, Internet archives show the company’s site included a section on corporate citizenship saying the business was “committed to holding ourselves to a higher standard of integrity and accountability.”

The company’s site also included a host of awards and recognitions, including a listing by the Washington Business Journal in 2010 for the top 50 fastest-growing companies.

Federal procurement records list more than $40 million in contact work awarded to the company over the years by, among others, the Army, Navy and departments of Commerce and Interior, with the most recent purchase order paid out last fall.

Hi folks,

For your reading pleasure, we've uploaded the criminal indictment against Min Cho -
http://www.scribd.com/doc/133837194/Min-Cho-Criminal-Indictment

The salient points from this document are:

- Alex Cho, Min Cho, and Kwon agreed to obstruct the federal criminal investigation of Nova Datacom to avoid detection by the investigators concerning the actual and full scope of the involvement of Alex Cho, Min Cho, Kwon, CC-5, and others in the schemes to pay bribes to Khan, Alexander, and Public Official C.

- Min Cho will be required to forfeit $6,884,948.16.

Her Plea Agreement hearing is currently scheduled for 11AM on 04/11/2013. We will have more information to come after the plea hearing.

Also in other developing news, Steven McCool, counsel for Young Cho, moved to be removed from the case due to irreconcilable differences between himself and the defendant. It is unknown whether Alex has procured a new lawyer. Currently his status hearing is scheduled for 10:30AM on 04/25/2013.

Another guilty plea entered in Army Corps contracting scheme
By Ann E. Marimow, Updated: Thursday, April 11, 3:37 PM

The former president of a Northern Virginia company pleaded guilty Thursday for her role in what prosecutors have called one of the largest bribery schemes in federal contracting history.

The company also pleaded guilty Thursday, admitting to paying more than $15 million in bribes to the three public officials and more than $790,000 in kickbacks to two other company executives who directed subcontracts to Nova Datacom.

Min Cho, who pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government, faces up to five years in prison, according to the plea agreement. The now-defunct company, which was based in Chantilly and provided security services to federal agencies and private-sector companies, faces a fine of up to $79 million. But it was not clear how it would pay such a large amount; Min Cho’s attorney, Barbara “Biz” Van Gelder, told U.S. District Judge Emmet G. Sullivan that the company does not have any assets.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/another-guilty-plea-entered-in-army-corps-contracting-scheme/2013/04/11/89067930-a2cc-11e2-82bc-511538ae90a4_story.html



According to this press release,

http://www.copperriverit.com/copper-river-announces-nova-datacom-asset-purchase/

Nova Datacom was purchased by a company called Copper River Information Technology, a company that's owned by a tribe of Indians in Alaska called the Eyak.

This doesn't make any sense, didn't Harold Babb, one of the defendants in this case, work for Eyak Technologies, a subsidiary of the Eyak Corporation ?


The finance director for the Eyak Tribe used to work for an "invited contractor" for the US Army Corp of Engineers in Seoul, South Korea.

http://www.nveyak.com/Documents/Eyak%20Echo/05%20May%202005%20PDF%20Single%20PG.pdf

On top of that, this man used to work for DT in Saipan at a time that DT was involved in the largest tax evasion fraud against the United States.

http://www.saipantribune.com/newsstory.aspx?newsID=86060

On top of all this, it says here that the former ED of the Eyak Tribe, now works for the Eyak Corporation.

http://www.nveyak.com/pages/executivedirector.html



I'm confused, can somebody help me out here ? What is the difference between the Eyak Tribe and the Eyak Corporation ? How did one arm of the company end up with the assets of the defendant company, all the while its other subsidiary is caught up in the middle of it all ?

This makes no sense.

It is all part of the Grand scheme. Buy companies and have a ton of subsidiaries. When one is about to get busted, you transfer all assets to another subsidiary and make that the primary company. That way you keep one step ahead of the feds.
So much of this going on and that the feds cannot keep up.

Executive pay balloons for federal contractors; small businesses add up to big gap


By Luke Rosiak-The Washington Times Monday, April 22, 2013


Red River Computer Co., which resells Cisco, Apple and Dell computers to the government, is a company with only 68 employees, yet it paid its top executives more than $5 million in 2011, including $1.2 million to its CEO, Richard Bolduc.
With more than 80 percent of its revenue coming from the federal government, the source of those salaries is clear.
In March 2011, Red River sold the Census Bureau an Apple MacBook Pro for $4,648. Red River was given preference because of its status as a small business. In 2010, it sold an Apple MacBook Pro notebook computer to the Air Force for $6,584. The newest model of that computer can be purchased online from Apple Inc. for $2,799.
“That revenue is basically all coming from taxpayers in the end,” said Scott H. Amey of the Project on Government Oversight.

To: Nova Staff
Subject: Responding to Recent Nova Datacom Events

Good afternoon everyone-

As many of you are aware, we are currently dealing with a crisis situation here and are desperately trying to contain the damage as a result of the entire USACE scandal. There is no doubt that the integrity and reputation of Nova Datacom has been harmed in an irreparable manner.

As you may have heard, Alex's case will be unsealed in the coming months. When this happens, much more information will be revealed regarding the extent and involvement to which Nova Datacom executives were involved in the scandal, which is sure to prompt a large media inquiry. We want to let you know that we are going to begin a marketing campaign with the intent of denying these claims, so that we can calm the storm during acquisition talks that are currently underway. We are preparing statements in advance that we can have on hand as a response to the media when further knowledge about the crisis first becomes known on a widespread basis or by reporters.

As discussed in the staff meeting earlier this week, we are currently in talks with several companies to acquire our remaining assets, but in the meantime it is imperative that we continue to maintain the appearance of business as usual. Anything less than the appearance of business as usual will have an impact on our ability to spin off our assets. In the meantime, as corporate policy we are asking all of you to formally deny any involvement with the scandal if asked for any additional information. If you are uncomfortable denying the allegations, you may direct any inquiries to myself or anyone else in the marketing department.

Due to the sensitive nature of these allegations, and the fluidity of the acquisition, anyone who reveals additional information regarding the true nature of our involvement will be immediately terminated. If in doubt, simply direct these inquiries to marketing.

Thanks for your understanding and for your help in this matter.

I am always astounded when PR flacks shill for companies which commit crimes. Flacks like Angela Inguillo couldn't have possibly known the depths and nature of the charges against the company's principals. Moreover, to recommend that employees formally deny liability to employees even if they have facts which indicate otherwise, or to threaten firing of the employees if they reveal the true nature of the company's involvement, could very well be deemed to be an obstruction ofjustice. It just floors me that a marketing flack would take on this kind of liability.

Seriously, you're deluded if you believe this, Alex and Min are now convicted felons, I hope the judge makes an example and throw the book at them. They deserve nothing less.

Not jealous about the way your friends made their living, and not jealous that they're now convicted felons.

I am however, very jealous of your BMW and cheap Armani suits. I hope that your new employer is making your car payment for you, and I'll bet that Min's 650i can be had for a great price when the Feds auction it off, if you know any used car dealers I'd bet that they could flip something like that for a pretty good profit.

Recognize anyone, Joe ? I do.

In yet another chapter of this continuing unfolding saga, Steve Giani has resigned from Copper River because it was determined he was embezzling from the company.

The guys at Nova Datacom errr... Copper River IT just can't seem to catch a break. I feel bad for all the honest employees who had to go through the whole Nova Datacom debacle only to end up in yet another shady company doing shady business practices with corporate leaders doing all kinds of shady stuff... What a sham...

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/apr/22/executive-pay-balloons-for-federal-contractors/

Red River Computer Co., which resells Cisco, Apple and Dell computers to the government, is a company with only 68 employees, yet it paid its top executives more than $5 million in 2011, including $1.2 million to its CEO, Richard Bolduc.
With more than 80 percent of its revenue coming from the federal government, the source of those salaries is clear.

The Eyak Corp., an Alaska Native business that uses its minority status to get contracts and is the sole bidder for most, paid its top five executives nearly $4 million last year, including $1.1 million to Keith Gordaoff.




http://www.dodig.mil/sar/SAR_OCT_2011.pdf


During the reporting period, DCIS investigations led to the recovery of $4,880,943 on behalf of the U.S. government; in addition there were 18 criminal charges, 15 convictions, 15 suspensions and 21 debarments related to spare and substandard parts investigations.

For example, a joint DCIS investigation with the FBI and General Services Administration OIG disclosed that Red River Computer Company Inc. and its president, Breck A. Taylor, had been defrauding the government by not providing the services and products required by the contract.

As a result, on August 15, 2011, the U.S. Department of Justice entered into a civil settlement agreement, in which Red River Computer Company agreed to pay $2.3 million to settle the allegations of fraud.

On September 8, 2011, Breck Taylor plead guilty to two counts of wire fraud, one count of attempted wire fraud and one count of conversion of federal funds. Taylor admitted to defrauding the United States in the amount of $1,084,446.

5. ALASKAN COMPANY RECEIVABLES
In March 2006, the Company entered into a loan agreement to lend $600,000 to an Alaska Limited Liability Company (the “Borrower”) to provide working capital needs to a subsidiary of the Borrower (“Alaskan Company”). This obligation did not bear interest. It was the Company’s intention to seek approval of the

Repayment of the loan was contingent upon application to this program. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company decided not to pursue the Mentor-Protégé program with the SBA. Consequently the loan of $600,000 was deemed to be uncollectable and was removed from the balance sheet and was recorded as a component of general and administrative expense for the year ended December 31, 2009.

High-End Fraud

Inside the largest contracting scam in American history.

By Jordan Smith



"............ Hallas agreed to wear a wire to record Cho. They met inside Cho’s car. “The purpose of the meeting was to get Cho to admit that he had been in on falsifying the references,” recalls Atkinson. But it was an awkward conversation—Hallas just wasn’t good at hiding what was going on. The conversation was so awkward, in fact, that Cho realized that Hallas was wired. Cho sent a text message in Korean to a man named Thomas Kwon—translated, the message said, “I’m fucked............"

I have mentioned this several times before. There is no parole in the federal system as only a system of relatively modest good time credits exists. Federal prisoners can look forward to serving most all of their sentences, and that is if all goes well (they avoid serious infractions in prison).

Sentences in the federal system are governed by the Sentencing Guidelines. Under recent case law, judges can deviate, but given the financial harm to the Government here, the defendants by and large do not seem to by sympathetic characters, although a reduction in sentence does obtain with truly sincere cooperation.

Again, a reminder in the federal system - it is serious stuff - the sentences are long, and they are real.

The Feds will reduce a sentence for good behavior.

With that said, I doubt that Alex will be shown mercy as he lied to investigators, and they don't like that much.

I just hope that they throw the book at these fuckers.

As far as Giani is concerned, in Alaska he's still the registered agent for the company, the registered agent in Virginia is listed as somebody else.

I heard that he was planning to retire and is now in the flower business with one of his business partners who got ran out of the SBA 8A program.

Min Cho attempted to hide assets and Alex flat out lied to investigators, their greed and stupidity got the best of them. Let's hope that the judge makes an example of them by throwing the book at them.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A former employee of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has been sentenced to more than 19 years in prison for orchestrating a massive contracting fraud.

Continue reading

Kerry Khan, a former program manager with the government, was sentenced Thursday morning in federal court in Washington.

He pleaded guilty last year to his role in a bribery and kickback scheme that prosecutors say stole more than $30 million through invoices that were either bogus or inflated.

Khan used the illegal funds on luxuries including Rolex watches, high-end liquor and fancy hotel stays.

Prosecutors asked U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan for a 15-year sentence. Sullivan said it was shocking that Khan was caught on a wiretap discussing a planned sexual encounter with a girl described to him as 15 years old.

Interesting how the prosecutors asked for 15 years but the judge deviated by giving more! That's rare in the federal system. Nice to know that a judge can look at serious character flaws (ie, 15 yr old prostitution) and use it wisely to make the final call.

Wonder what he thinks of Alex n Min.

I'm not sure what any of those cases you posted have to do with NDC. Plenty of people embezzle, none of that is relevant to NDC, nor is the fact thatnit happened in Alaska since NDC has no affiliation w Alaska, or companies in it.

I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that Alex, Hallas, and Min all blatantly embezzled money. I can think of no other way they could legally afford their lifestyle of multimillion dollar homes, coupled with Alex's Audi RS4+porsche panamara turbo+range rover super charged.

I have no idea if Joe Kim was involved with any of the embezzlement, I am just simply curious if he thinks he treated employees fairly and honestly. And if he thinks that Alex, Min, and Ted did anything wrong.

Those cases are but the tip of the iceberg, what I could think of off the top of my head. They all involve government or tribal officials in Alaska.

The NDC scandal involved The Eyak Corporation, the regional Native corporation for city of Cordova, Alaska.

The assets of NDC were purchased for pennies on the dollar by Copper River Information Technology, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Native Village of Eyak, also located in Cordova, Alaska.

My point is that the SBA 8a program created large loopholes specifically for ANC's (Alaska Native Corps) and Alaskan tribal entities such as the Native Village of Eyak. Lax oversight and monitoring of these ANC-controlled entities, along with a cozy good-ol-boys network where everybody in Alaska is connected to everybody else by only one or two degrees of separation, creates an environment that invites every shyster and ne'er-do-well this side of the Mississippi.

For such a small population, >1 million residents total, there sure is a large amount of graft and greed taking place on the last frontier.

Joe definitely knew what was going on... and I have a little secret... when all of this went down he asked a few of us in IT to go through the Microsoft Exchange database and remove a great number of emails that tied Min and Alex to this whole fiasco... (it seemed a strange request at the time, but we had no awareness of the true extent of what was going on until much, much later)... so while he might not have been directly involved in the scheme, he definitely had awareness on the periphery, and at the very least, his actions are tantamount to obstruction of justice and destruction of key evidence.

Don Young Alaska

A long-running FBI investigation produced a vast amount of evidence that Rep. Don Young earmarked funds to benefit a campaign donor and used campaign funds to pay for personal expenses for himself and his late wife.

In 2005, the Alaska Republican inserted a $10 million earmark into a transportation bill — after it passed Congress, but before the president signed it into law — for a highway interchange that would benefit one of his campaign contributors.

After a lawsuit, CREW obtained documents about the FBI’s investigation into the earmark revealing the bureau also investigated Rep. Young and his late wife, Lu Young, for using campaign funds to pay for personal expenses like meals, travel, and dry cleaning.

FBI: Vienna Businessman Sentenced in Bribery, Fraud Case; Oh Sung Kwon to pay $1,188,500 in restitution and the same amount in a forfeiture money judgment.

FBI: Vienna Businessman Sentenced in Bribery, Fraud Case
Oh Sung Kwon to pay $1,188,500 in restitution and the same amount in a forfeiture money judgment.
http://vienna.patch.com/groups/police-and-fire/p/fbi-vienna-businessman-sentenced-in-bribery-fraud-case

Vienna businessman Oh Sung Kwon, 48, was sentenced Monday to 46 months in prison on federal charges stemming from a bribery scheme in which he paid thousands of dollars to an army official in return for government contracts, as well as a separate scheme involving fraudulent real estate sales and refinances, according to a news release from the FBI.

Kwon, also known as Thomas Kwon, of Vienna, pled guilty in September 2012 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to one count each of bribery, conspiracy to commit bank fraud, and willful failure to file a tax return. He was sentenced by the Honorable Emmet G. Sullivan. Judge Sullivan also ordered Kwon to pay $1,188,500 in restitution and the same amount in a forfeiture money judgment. Upon completion of his prison term, Kwon will be placed on three years of supervised release.

Kwon was the co-founder and chief executive officer of Avenciatech Inc., a government contractor based in Annandale. He is among 17 people and one corporation that pled guilty to federal charges for their roles in the largest domestic bribery and bid-rigging scheme in the history of federal contracting. The investigation is continuing.

According to a statement of offense signed by the government and the defendant, Kwon learned of a contract-steering scheme from two business contacts: Alex N. Cho, who was then the chief technology officer for Nova Datacom LLC, and a second Nova Datacom employee. This scheme involved contracts and subcontracts awarded through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in return for hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments to Kerry F. Khan. At the time, Khan was a program manager at the Army Corps of Engineers.


Kwon’s role in the scheme involving the Army Corps of Engineers included Kwon arranging for Cho and another Nova Datacom employee to exchange checks for approximately $700,000 in cash, which was paid to Khan in exchange for government contracts. Kwon later attempted to obstruct the resulting criminal investigation by destroying evidence. However, he also disclosed to law enforcement authorities the efforts by Cho and another Nova Datacom employee to obstruct the criminal investigation, including Cho’s attempts while wearing a recording device to prevent Kwon from making incriminating statements.

Kwon learned of a second, similar scheme involving another business contact: Nick Park, a former Nova Datacom employee who was then the president of Unisource Enterprise Inc. Kwon learned through Park that he had obtained a subcontract for his company by agreeing to pay bribes to a person identified in court documents as “Public Official C.” This official, based at the time in Seoul, South Korea, was an assistant project manager for the U.S. Army who had responsibilities for a major contract.

In or about February 2009, Kwon traveled to South Korea to meet Public Official C. In exchange for an undisclosed ownership interest in Avenciatech, Public Official C agreed to use his official position to steer subcontracts from the Army to Avenciatech. Plans later called for Public Official C to have a 40 percent ownership interest in the company.

In September 2009, Avenciatech obtained an army subcontract in the amount of $366,844. However, army change orders later increased the value of this subcontract to $1,913,059. Avenciatech also obtained a second contract in February 2011 in the amount of $551,093. Change orders later increased its value to $1,413,513.

In exchange for the official assistance of Public Official C, Kwon made a series of bribe payments. They included cash payments; payments for hotel stays for Public Official C and family members, including a trip to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas; payments to finance the purchase of a 2010 Lexus automobile; and payments for other things of value.

Kwon also assisted Public Official C in obtaining financing for the purchase of a home in Fairfax Station, where Public Official C resided following his reassignment in 2010 to a position at Fort Belvoir. Public Official C wanted to make a $230,000 down payment on the home purchase but did not want to face questions about the source of the money in Public Official C’s bank account.

Instead, Public Official C transferred the $230,000 to an account of an Avenciatech employee, Helen Woo. Kwon caused Woo, in turn, to execute a phony “gift letter” claiming that she was Public Official C’s cousin and that she was providing the $230,000 to a settlement company for the home purchase.

Kwon also pled guilty and was sentenced today on charges in a separate scheme involving bank fraud. In addition to running Avenciatech, Kwon was the operations manager for Onyx Financial Services, a mortgage broker based in Annandale. He admitted involvement in at least six fraudulent real estate sales and refinances in northern Virginia, with loan amounts of about $1.8 million. Finally, Kwon pled guilty and was sentenced today for the willful failure to file a tax return. This charge involved his 2010 income tax return.

Cho, Khan, Park, and Woo are among those pleading guilty in the case.

Cho pled guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit bribery, money laundering, and wire fraud and to defraud the United States and one count of bribery. Khan pled guilty to one count each of bribery and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Park pled guilty to two counts of bribery. Woo pled guilty to a misdemeanor fraud charge for her role in the home financing scheme.

Khan was sentenced to 19 years and seven months in prison. Woo was sentenced to two years of probation. Cho and Park are awaiting sentencing.

Has anybody gotten any more information about Joe Kim, who was Director of Engineering at Nova Datacom and now VP of Engineering at Copper River IT (who purchased the former assets of Nova Datacom)?

It was alleged in a few of the court documents that the former Director of Engineering at Nova Datacom was somehow involved in the destruction of key evidence and was being investigated for involvement and potentially obstruction of justice charges.

If anyone has more information, I think we would all love to see it. Do we know Joe's full Korean name? If someone has a pacer account perhaps you could take a look.

Man with Ties to Annandale Company Allegedly Took $350,000 Cash, Bahamas Trip, Lexus from Contractors

Former U.S. Army contracting official allegedly steered contracts in exchange for gifts, cash, including payment for female escorts.
http://annandale.patch.com/groups/police-and-fire/p/man-with-ties-to-annandale-company-allegedly-took-350000-cash-bahamas-trip-lexus-from-contractors

Fairfax Station resident In Seon Lim, a former contracting official for the U.S. Department of the Army, was arrested Tuesday, following his indictment on federal bribery and other charges in which he allegedly accepted more than $350,000 in cash, along with vacations and other benefits from favored contractors, according to a news release from the FBI.

Lim, 48, of Fairfax Station, also known as InSeon Lim, was indicted last Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The 10-count indictment, which was unsealed following Tuesday’s arrest, accuses Lim of one count of conspiracy, four counts of bribery, money laundering, a tax offense, and related charges. Lim made his initial court appearance Tuesday and was released pending a status hearing scheduled for next Tuesday.


Lim is the latest person to be charged in an investigation into domestic bribery, bid-rigging, and federal contracting. A total of 17 individuals and one corporation, Nova Datacom LLC, have pled guilty to federal charges, and a second company, Saena Tech Corp., entered into a deferred prosecution agreement with the government.

The indictment provides notice that, if convicted, the United States will seek forfeiture of all proceeds of the charged offenses, including Lim’s house in Fairfax Station.

“A federal grand jury has charged this army official with taking more than $350,000 in cash, a Lexus, and a trip to the Bahamas in exchange for steering business to crooked contractors,” said U.S. Attorney Machen, in a news release. “Seventeen people and one corporation have already pled guilty as part of this sweeping investigation into bribery in federal contracting. The wide reach of these prosecutions should send a clear message to corrupt public officials and contractors who use secret payoffs to cheat the system.”

“Federal small business contracts are not pay-to-play,” said SBA Inspector General Gustafson.


“It’s a sad day when the public’s trust is shaken by the criminal acts of government officials who are entrusted to safeguard our taxpayer dollars,” said DCIS Special Agent in Charge Craig.

According to the indictment, Lim was a public official until April 2012. The charges involve his activities as an assistant project manager and product director with the Program Executive Office Enterprise Information Systems, a part of the army that provides infrastructure and informational management systems.

The indictment covers activities from May 2007 through October 2011.

Until June 2010, Lim resided and worked in Seoul, South Korea. While in South Korea, his primary duties were to oversee and implement communications systems upgrades for the U.S. forces there, which included approximately 10 communications centers and various other special projects at military sites throughout the country. Among other things, Lim coordinated work on a major contract, which, in turn, had numerous subcontracts.

From June 2010 until his resignation in April 2012, Lim worked as a product director at Fort Belvoir.

The indictment alleges that Lim secretly used his official position to enrich himself by soliciting and accepting gifts, payments, and other things of value from government contractors in return for favorable official action. Among other things, the indictment alleges, Lim received payments personally and to accounts that he controlled; payments for travel, vacation, vehicles, cell phones and cellular service for himself and family members; payments for female escorts; ownership interests in two companies; and assistance in obtaining home financing.

The government contractors, meanwhile, enriched themselves by secretly obtaining favorable official action, the indictment alleges. At Lim’s direction, some of the contractors allegedly submitted fraudulent invoices for purported work that was not actually performed. Also at Lim’s direction, the indictment alleges, these contractors then paid him a portion of the proceeds generated by the fraudulent invoices.

The indictment provides details about numerous contracts and payments. For example:
•Nova Datacom: According to the indictment, two former employees of the company—Alex N. Cho, also known asYoung N. Cho, and Nick Park—separately paid Lim a total of $50,000 in cash in 2007. In addition, Park paid for Lim’s travel, lodging, meals and entertainment during a trip to the Philippines in 2007, and Cho paid for lodging and a $1,000 casino chip during a trip later that year to Las Vegas, the indictment alleges.
•Avenciatech: According to the indictment, two former officials of Avenciatech Inc., a government contractor based in Annandale, provided Lim with cash and an ownership interest in the company in exchange for official action. For example, the indictment alleges, one of the former officials—Oh Song Kwon, also known as Thomas Kwon—provided Lim with cash payments; payments for hotel stays for Lim and family members, including a trip to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas; payments to finance the purchase of a 2010 Lexus automobile; and payments for other things of value. Kwon also assisted Lim in obtaining financing for the purchase of a home in Fairfax Station, where Lim resided following his reassignment in 2010 to a position at Fort Belvoir.
•UEI: Nick Park left Nova Datacom in 2007 and co-founded another government contractor, Unisource Enterprise Inc.(UEI), based in Annandale. According to the indictment, in exchange for favorable treatment, Park provided Lim with a secret ownership in UEI. Among other things, Lim allegedly provided Park with sensitive procurement information.
•Saena Tech: According to the indictment, a former official with Saena Tech, which was based in South Korea, provided Lim with $70,000 in cash; payments for meals, entertainment, and an automobile; and $175,000 of the proceeds generated by a fraudulent invoice.

Cho, Park, and Kwon are among those who earlier pled guilty to charges in the case.

An indictment is merely a formal charge that a defendant has committed a violation of criminal laws and every defendant is presumed innocent until, and unless, proven guilty.

As far as I know there has been nothing public about Alex and Min in a long time. Not sure if their sentencing has been pushed back or not.

Looks like Alex's sentencing will be on Dec. 19th.

The prosecutors are recommending something like 8 years. He has already served around 3. He will likely be deported when his sentencing is complete.

Attached is a letter he wrote to the judge seeking leniency. Some interesting tidbits, including the fact that he apparently had a drug problem.

Enjoy!

According to a previous post Alex should have been sentenced on the 19th. Does anyone know what he got? Also what did his sister get? Thanks in advance for any info.

I left Nova Datacom back in 2010 and learned about this scandal shortly after when an investigator called to meet and speak with me. I've since been out of the loop and just read the latest...I'm shocked to see there are STILL no sentencing updates on the Chos'.

Maybe someone with a PACER account can look it up and find out what's taking so long for the sentencing. It might have happened and just not gotten any press.

I work for a northern Virginia charity and received a call from amy cho today. She said that she send $6k cash in the mail to us, but that she was having a schizophrenic episode and needs the money back. The money was actually sent to the wrong address, but there was no return address, so it was sent to the post office. The post office converted the cash to money orders and sent to us. Just got a phone call from amy's husband's attorney (could this be Alex Cho), stating that they need the money back.

Confusing this is we got the same phone call in September of 2015, and the money was refunded.

This has to be a scam right?

Why is it some of these leftover characters have started new 8(a) shell companies and continue to do business. SD has claimed bankruptcy on a few of his companies but is still out and up to his no good ways.
