The second week of the Roman Storm trial kicked off with Judge Katherine Failla allowing a witness to testify that Tornado Cash could have been modified to prevent criminal use.
A federal judge overseeing Tornado Cash co-founder and developer Roman Storm’s criminal trial will allow jurors to hear testimony claiming he could have modified the platform “to deter criminals from using it.”
In a Sunday order, Judge Katherine Failla denied a defense motion requesting to preclude testimony from a government witness over modifications Storm allegedly could have made to Tornado Cash.
The witness, Philip Werlau, an investigator at the fraud investigation and Anti-Money Laundering compliance company AnChain.AI, will be allowed to offer testimony that Storm allegedly had the means to stop Tornado Cash from laundering the proceeds of crimes using smart contract features, but chose not to.
