US Billionaire Shoots Down Claims of Controlling Montana Town Police Force, Having Personal 'Harem'

Goguen reportedly pointed out how one of his accusers, Matthew Marshall, accepted a plea deal in Montana on charges of wire fraud, tax evasion and obtaining money from the billionaire through false pretenses.

Michael Goguen, a 57-year old tech billionaire from the United States, has slammed claims that he has a “harem” and is controlling local police in a town in Montana.

According to the New York Post, Goguen insisted that the aforementioned allegations originate from "disgruntled and vindictive ex-associates".

"The ridiculous and defamatory published in the New York POST article yesterday was the ‘last gasp’ attempt by recently convicted felon Matthew Marshall to cause my family and I as much damage as possible before his upcoming sentencing," he declared.

The federal civil complaint filed against Goguen alleges that he has local cops in Whitefish, Montana on his payroll and practically owns the town.

One of the accusers, former Amyntor Group head Matthew Marshall, alleged that Goguen forced him into purchasing gifts for the billionaire’s alleged mistresses, as well as to provide “hush-money payoffs” to “Goguen’s acquaintances and employees who had ‘learned too much’ about Goguen’s sexual misconduct and crimes.”

Goguen, however, noted that earlier this month, Marshall accepted a plea deal in Montana on charges of wire fraud, tax evasion and obtaining money from Goguen through false pretences, agreeing to pay $3.5 million in restitution; the sentencing is expected to take place next year.

Another one of Goguen’s accusers, Bryan Nash, pleaded guilty last year to blackmailing Goguen and was sentenced to five years of probation.

"It’s hard to believe that we’re at a time in society when disgusting nonsense like this– crafted from the evil and twisted imaginations of a convicted felon to openly and publicly retaliate against his victim — is given the same weight by the media as the fact and evidence-based conclusions reached by the FBI and the criminal justice system," Goguen complained.

The lawsuit, filed by four former Amyntor Group employees earlier this year, claims more than $800 million in damages.
