Titolo: NOto ricercatore danese pagato.....

Un noto ricercatore Danese citato spesso per i suoi studi che smentirebbero 
il nesso autismo/vaccini e' stato pizzicato con le dita nella marmellata.

Penso che questo sia molto ma molto peggio rispetto a quello che avrebbe 
fatto Wakefield, cambia solo l'esposizione mediatica che in questo caso è 
assente.
Dove sono i pro-vaccinatori adesso?

Thorsen Allegedly Absconded With Over $1 Million
            ATLANTA, GA -  POUL THORSEN, 49, of Denmark, has been indicted 
by a federal grand jury on charges of wire fraud and money laundering based 
on a scheme to steal grant money the CDC had awarded to governmental 
agencies in Denmark for autism research.
            United States Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said of the case, 
"Grant money for disease research is a precious commodity.  When grant funds 
are stolen, we lose not only the money, but also the opportunity to better 
understand and cure debilitating diseases.  This defendant is alleged to 
have orchestrated a scheme to steal over $1 million in CDC grant money 
earmarked for autism research.  We will now seek the defendant's extradition 
for him to face federal charges in the United States."
            "Stealing research grant money to line his pockets, as Poul 
Thorsen stands accused of here today, cheats U.S. taxpayers and will simply 
not be tolerated," said Derrick L. Jackson, Special Agent in Charge of the 
Atlanta Region for the Office of Inspector General of the Department of 
Health & Human Services.  "HHS/OIG will continue to work closely with our 
law enforcement partners to bring these criminals to justice."
            Reginael D. McDaniel, Special Agent in Charge of the Atlanta 
Region for Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation said, "Today's 
global economy demands a high-level coordinated approach by multiple 
agencies and authorities in the investigation of financial crimes.  While 
schemes often become more sophisticated over time, fortunately, so do our 
investigative techniques.  IRS Criminal Investigation is proud to have 
shared its hallmark expertise in following the money trail in the scheme 
alleged in this indictment."
            According to United States Attorney Yates, the charges and other 
information presented in court:  In the 1990s, THORSEN worked as a visiting 
scientist at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 
Division of Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, when the CDC was 
soliciting grant applications for research related to infant disabilities. 
THORSEN successfully promoted the idea of awarding the grant to Denmark and 
provided input and guidance for the research to be conducted.  From 2000 to 
2009, the CDC awarded over $11 million to two governmental agencies in 
Denmark to study the relationship between autism and exposure to vaccines, 
between cerebral palsy and infection during pregnancy, and between childhood 
development and fetal alcohol exposure.  In 2002, THORSEN moved to Denmark 
and became the principal investigator for the grant, responsible for 
administering the research money awarded by the CDC.
            Once in Denmark, THORSEN allegedly began stealing the grant 
money by submitting fraudulent documents to have expenses supposedly related 
to the Danish studies be paid with the grant money.  He provided the 
documents to the Danish government, and to Aarhus University and Odense 
University Hospital, where scientists performed research under the grant. 
From February 2004 through June 2008, THORSEN allegedly submitted over a 
dozen fraudulent invoices, purportedly signed by a laboratory section chief 
at the CDC, for reimbursement of expenses that THORSEN claimed were incurred 
in connection with the CDC grant.  The invoices falsely claimed that a CDC 
laboratory had performed work and was owed grant money.  Based on these 
invoices, Aarhus University, where THORSEN also held a faculty position, 
transferred hundreds of thousands of dollars to bank accounts held at the 
CDC Federal Credit Union in Atlanta, accounts which Aarhus University 
believed belonged to the CDC.  In truth, the CDC Federal Credit Union 
accounts were personal accounts held by THORSEN.  After the money was 
transferred, THORSEN allegedly withdrew it for his own personal use, buying 
a home in Atlanta, a Harley Davidson motorcycle, and Audi and Honda 
vehicles, and obtaining numerous cashier's checks, from the fraud proceeds. 
THORSEN allegedly absconded with over $1 million from the scheme.
            The indictment charges THORSEN with 13 counts of wire fraud and 
9 counts of money laundering.  The wire fraud counts each carry a maximum of 
20 years in prison, and the money laundering counts each carry a maximum of 
10 years in prison, with a fine of up to $250,000 for each count.  The 
indictment also contains a forfeiture provision seeking forfeiture of all 
property derived from the offenses, including an Atlanta residence, two 
cars, and a Harley Davidson motorcycle.  In determining the actual sentence, 
the Court will consider the United States Sentencing Guidelines, which are 
not binding but provide appropriate sentencing ranges for most offenders.
            This case is being investigated by Special Agents of the Office 
of Inspector General of the Department of Health & Human Services and the 
Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division.
            Assistant United States Attorneys Stephen H. McClain and Michael 
J. Brown are prosecuting the case.
            Members of the public are reminded that the indictment contains 
only allegations.  A defendant is presumed innocent of the charges and it 
will be the government's burden to prove a defendant's guilt beyond a 
reasonable doubt at trial.
            For further information please contact Sally Q. Yates, United 
States Attorney, or Charysse L. Alexander, Executive Assistant United States 
Attorney, through Patrick Crosby, Public Affairs Officer, U.S. Attorney's

Traducendo l'articolo si legge che il tipo ha semplicemente sottratto 
dei fondi affidatigli da chi finanziava la ricerca alle sue tasche.
Inoltre non è dimostrato che sia colpevole, è solo stato accusato: è 
ancora tutto da dimostrare visto che quello che avrebbe comprato sono i 
normali acquisti di cgu denaro ne ha che gli gira per le mani.
E quindi dove starebbe il problema?
Nel fatto che nulla di questo articolo invalida le conclusioni del passato?
Oppure nel solito livore dei fuffari a cui viene sottratto l'osso (il 
tonto)?
