Carl Erik Rinsch, director of the 2013 Keanu Reeves film 47 Ronin, has been arrested and charged with money laundering and wire fraud.

2013 Keanu Reeves电影47 Ronin的董事Carl Erik Rinsch已被捕，并被指控犯有洗钱和电汇欺诈。

A seven-count indictment alleges Rinsch misused $11 million in Netflix funding intended for his science fiction TV series, White Horse. Instead of using the funds to complete the project, he allegedly diverted them to personal accounts for speculative investments, luxury purchases, and legal battles.

一项七项指控指控Rinsch滥用了1100万美元的Netflix资金，该资金旨在为他的科幻电视连续剧《白马》。 据称，他没有使用资金来完成该项目，而是将他们转移到个人帐户中，以进行投机性投资，奢侈品购买和法律斗争。

Netflix initially invested $44 million in *White Horse* in 2018. Between 2019 and 2020, Rinsch requested an additional $11 million, claiming it was necessary for production. However, the indictment, filed by Acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Matthew Podolsky and FBI Assistant Director Leslie Backschies of the New York Field Office, states he funneled this money through multiple accounts before depositing it into his brokerage account.

Netflix最初在2018年投资了4,400万美元 *白马 *。在2019年至2020年之间，Rinsch要求额外的1100万美元，声称这是生产的必要条件。 然而，由纽约南部地区马修·波多尔斯基（Matthew Podolsky）和联邦调查局助理董事莱斯利·贝克斯（Leslie Backschies）提起的美国代理律师提起的起诉书指出，他说，他在将这笔钱存入他的经纪帐户之前，通过多个帐户汇入了这笔钱。

Rinsch reportedly used the funds to trade cryptocurrencies and stocks. Within two months, he allegedly lost over half the sum on speculative investments, including options and an S&P 500 ETF. Despite initial losses, he reinvested, ultimately making a $4 million Dogecoin investment that was worth $27 million by 2021.

据报道，林奇用这些资金来交易加密货币和股票。 据称，在两个月内，他损失了超过一半的投机投资，包括期权和标准普尔500 ETF。尽管最初的损失，他还是重新投资，最终进行了400万美元的Dogecoin投资，到2021年价值2700万美元。

Authorities further allege he spent approximately $5.3 million on litigation against Netflix, paying off credit card debt, and purchasing a Ferrari and five Rolls-Royces. Despite these extravagant expenditures, White Horse remained unfinished. Netflix reportedly received only six short episodes, far short of the complete series they financed.

当局进一步声称，他在针对Netflix的诉讼上花费了约530万美元，还清了信用卡债务，并购买了法拉利和五个劳斯莱斯。 尽管有这些奢侈的支出，但白马仍未完成。 据报道，Netflix仅收到了六集，远远远远没有他们资助的完整系列。

The 47-year-old Rinsch faces severe penalties. The wire fraud charge carries a maximum 20-year prison sentence. The money laundering charge adds another potential 20 years, and each of the five counts of engaging in monetary transactions in criminally derived property carries a maximum 10-year sentence. If convicted on all counts, Rinsch could face up to 90 years in prison. He was released on a $100,000 bail bond, with no court date yet set.

这位47岁的林奇面临严重的处罚。 电汇欺诈指控最高判处20年徒刑。 洗钱指控增加了另外20年的潜力，五项从事刑事派生财产的货币交易的罪名最高10年。 如果罪名成立，林奇将面临最高90年的监禁。他以100,000美元的保释保证金获释，尚无开庭日期。
