Marshall Sylver Clears His Name
Marshall Sylver Exonerated of all
charges. All charges
against Marshall Sylver totally dismissed.
Effective December 9th, 2004, all
charges against hypnotist Marshall Sylver were officially dismissed
by order of Nevada District Court Judge Valerie Vega. In a legal battle that lasted
over four years with false accusations made against Mr. Sylver, the
Attorney General of the State of Nevada officially withdrew any and
all charges in their case of Taking money under false pretenses
regarding Marshall Sylvers Millionaire Mentorship
Program.
In October of 2001, the Nevada Attorney
Generals office issued a raid on the corporate property of Sylver
Enterprises seizing computers, documents, and other related
materials to the Millionaire Mentorship Program (MMP) as
well as the corporate customer database and proprietary corporate
information. For over
one year, the seized property was held and used to build a case
against Marshall Sylver on charges that he was misleading his
customers in his program designed to teach people the skills and
methods on how to become a millionaire.
After searching through the thousands of
attendees in the Sylver Enterprises database, nine people were
found to have grievances against Sylver Enterprises, some had
already been refunded while others were in the process of being
refunded their investment for the MMP. It is these nine people who the
Attorney General used to mount a case against Marshall
Sylver. One such
person involved and who was the primary instigator of the
investigation for the Attorney General was a man by the name of
Sean Roach. Mr. Roach
opted to finance his investment for the MMP.
Having never actually made any
payments toward the loan, he was seeking monetary refunding of his
money for the program instead of the financing to be
removed. In his
attempted extortion of Sylver Enterprises, he began to distribute
pre-filled out Attorney General complaint forms at Marshall Sylvers
events. It is by these
means the other eight complainants were found for use in the
Attorney General case against Mr. Sylver. A current case filing is pending
against Mr. Roach for public physical threats made by him against
Marshall Sylver in 2002.
The nine complainants were used to represent
nine separate felony charges made by the Attorney General of the
state of Nevada. Immediately after charges were made, the Attorney General offered a
plea-bargain to drop the nine felonies down to nine misdemeanors
and eventually down to one minor misdemeanor. Opting not to take this plea, Mr.
Sylver pursued his innocence to a jury. In November of 2003, Marshall
Sylver was tried with nine felony counts of Taking Money Under
False Pretenses and during jury deliberation; the case was declared
a mistrial by decision of the judge. Having seen the lack of merit of their
case tried in court, the Nevada Attorney General decided to drop
and dismiss all charges against Marshall Sylver on December
9th, 2005.
