#### UNITED STATES v. SEARS.

No. 3753.

Circuit Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Jan. 16, 1935.

Before PARKER and SOPER, Circuit Judges, and WEBB, District Judge.

C. L. Dawson, Atty., Department of Justice, of Washington, D. C. (Carlisle W. Higgins, U. S. Atty., of Greensboro, N. C., Will G. Beardslee, Director, Bureau of War Risk Litigation, of Washington, D. C., and Randolph C. Shaw, Sp. Asst, to Atty. Gen., on the brief), for the United States.

F. B. Benbow, of Winston-Salem, N. C., and McNeill & McNeill, of Lumberton, N. C., for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal in a war risk insurance case in which the only issue involved is the sufficiency of the evidence to carry the case to the jury on the issue of total and permanent disability. The premiums paid kept the insurance in force till May 1, 1919. Insured died May 10, 1924, as the result of cerebral hemorrhage, although pulmonary tuberculosis was assigned as a contributory or secondary cause. There is evidence that he had had tuberculosis for a year or so before his death; but no evidence from which an inference could properly be drawn that he had this disease in such stage as to constitute total and permanent' disability at the time of the lapse of the policy. In October, 1919, he enlisted in the North Carolina National Guard, and stated that he was physically able to perform the duties of an able-bodied soldier. A physical examination disclosed no serious defects, and he was accepted as a member of the National Guard. He attended inr struction camps in 1920 and 1921, and in the latter year was commissioned a second lieutenant'. From 1919 to 1922 he worked for a tobacco company with reasonable regularity, and earned substantial wages. In 1922- he began operating a grocery store which he continued to operate until the spring of 1923, when he was admitted to a government hospital. Insured was gassed in action in France; and there is evidence to justify the conclusion that he may have had incipient tuberculosis at the time of his discharge, but there is no evidence to justify the finding that the disease had reached such stage as tp constitute total and permanent disability at that time. Under such circumstances, verdict should have been directed for the government. U. S. v. Spaulding, 55 S. Ct. 273, 79 L. Ed.-; U. S. v. Baker (C. C. A. 4th) 73 F.(2d) 455; Ivey v. U. S. (C. C.

# 									Imposing Sanctions on President Putin and Three Other Senior Russian Officials							

Press Statement

Antony J. Blinken, Secretary of State

February 25, 2022

The United States is inflicting unprecedented costs on President Putin and those around him for their brutal and unprovoked assault on the people of Ukraine.  We are united with our allies and partners in our commitment to ensure the Russian government pays a severe economic and diplomatic price for its further invasion of Ukraine, a sovereign and democratic state.

In coordination with allies and partners, we are imposing sanctions on President Putin and three members of Russia’s Security Council directly responsible for the further invasion of Ukraine: Minister of Foreign Affairs Sergei Lavrov, Minister of Defense Sergei Shoigu, and First Deputy Minister of Defense and Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Valery Gerasimov.

President Putin rejected the good faith efforts of the United States and our allies and partners to address our mutual security concerns through dialogue and to avoid needless conflict and human suffering.

In response to this aggression, the Department of the Treasury has designated Russian President Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov.  In a corresponding action, the Department of State has designated Shoigu and Gerasimov pursuant to E.O. 14024 Section 1(a)(i) because these individuals have been determined to operate or have operated in the defense and related materiel sector of the Russian economy.

The U.S. Treasury has already designated eleven members of the Russian Security Council, and we will look to designate more in the future if Russia does not stop its unprovoked campaign against Ukraine.

We will continue to coordinate closely with partners and allies to impose severe consequences on Russia for its war against Ukraine. Sustained diplomacy over several months with partners and allies at every level has strengthened our unity of purpose, resolve, and coordination on measures that will be felt deeply in Russia, particularly those most responsible for Russia’s hostile actions against its neighbors, including the architects of this war.

[Wanted Poster in Spanish [210 KB]]

**NAME****:** Joselit de la Trinidad Ramirez Camacho**ALIASES:** JL**DOB:**September 23, 1986**POB****:** Merida, Venezuela**NATIONALITY:**Venezuelan**CITIZENSHIP:**Venezuelan**HEIGHT:** 5’10”**WEIGHT:** 180 lbs**HAIR COLOR:** Black**EYE COLOR:**Brown

 

Venezuelan national Joselit de la Trinidad Ramirez Camacho is a Government of Venezuela (GoV) official with deep political, social, and economic ties to Tareck El Aissami, a designated Kingpin and former Venezuelan Vice President. Ramirez Camacho currently serves as the National Superintendent of Cryptoactive and Related Activities, wherein he directs GoV attempts to circumvent U.S. sanctions by issuing a digital currency in a process that Venezuela’s democratically elected National Assembly has denounced as unlawful.   These actions have been almost universally prohibited, most notably by President Trump in Executive Order 13827.

A Homeland Securities Investigations (HSI) case revealed that Ramirez, working with El Aissami and Samark Jose Bello Lopez, abused his power as President of Venezuelan Cryptocurrency to violate and evade OFAC narcotics-related sanctions imposed pursuant to the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act, among other related regulations.  In connection with this unlawful scheme, Ramirez coordinated El Aissami’s use of U.S. persons to charter private jets for travel services after El Aissami’s 2017 OFAC Kingpin designation.  Ramirez coordinated the use of U.S.-based companies to charter private flights (at times, on U.S.-registered aircraft) for El Aissami and others in connection with official GoV travel in and between Venezuela, Russia, Turkey, and the Dominican Republic.  As a result, on March 13, 2020, Ramirez was charged in a Southern District of New York federal indictment with avoiding sanctions as well as conspiracy to commit money laundering.

The U.S. Department of State is offering a REWARD OF UP TO $5 MILLION for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Joselit de la Trinidad Ramirez Camacho for participating in transnational organized crime.

If you have information and are located outside of the United States, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. If in the United States, please contact the local Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) office in your city.

**ALL IDENTITIES ARE KEPT STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.**

Government officials and employees are not eligible for rewards.

Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs

December 19, 2018

Funding restrictions on U.S. assistance to Guinea-Bissau were recently lifted following 2014 elections that were considered free and fair by the international community. These restrictions were put into place in response to an April 2012 coup d’état. We will identify opportunities to re-engage with the democratically elected government of Guinea-Bissau on a case-by-case basis.

**Challenges:**Historically, Guinea-Bissau has been a transit hub for drug trafficking from South America to Europe, although that trade has slowed with a diminishing number of international flights and with the April 2013 U.S. arrests and indictments of several former high-level Guinea-Bissau military officials. The country’s lack of law enforcement capabilities, demonstrated susceptibility to corruption, porous borders, convenient location between Europe, South America, and neighboring West African transit points, and linguistic connections to Brazil, Portugal, and Cape Verde provide an opportune environment for traffickers. Drug trafficking, corruption, and related crimes pose a serious challenge to the capability of Guinea-Bissau to progress on a path of democracy, good governance, and legitimate free market development.

**Goals:**The U.S. government will assist Guinea-Bissau embark on a path to effectively combat transnational organized crime, including drug trafficking, money laundering, and corruption.
