The SEC has been unable to find Craig Grant for service in Jamaica.

As a substitute, the regulator now seeks permission to impact service by way of e-mail and publication.

The SEC sued Grant in Might 2021. The regulator seeks to get better over $1.3 million, which Grant acquired as one in every of BitConnect’s high promoters.

Upon studying of the SEC’s lawsuit in opposition to him, Craig Grant fled the US for Jamaica.

There the SEC has been unable to enlist the help of Jamaican authorities, as Jamaica isn’t a signatory to the Hague Conference.

Unbiased makes an attempt to find Grant initially led to a residence in Spanish City.

Regardless of the person served being of roughly the identical age as Grant and having the identical three initials, that turned out to be a dead-end.

Renewed efforts to find Grant noticed the SEC slender his location all the way down to Rock Spring, Trelawny Parish.

As defined by the SEC;

Rock Spring, Trelawny, with largely unpaved roads and with residences missing particular avenue and home addresses.

Regardless of a course of servers greatest efforts to canvas Rock Spring, Grant continues to evade the SEC.

On February twenty second the SEC requested permission to serve Grant by way of e-mail and publication.

Service on Grant by e-mail comports with constitutional notions of due course of whereas selling the speedy administration of justice.

The SEC argues service by publication is acceptable on this case, because it’s unlikely Grant is unaware of the SEC’s lawsuit.

there’s not less than a excessive chance that Grant has information of this lawsuit as a result of the Fee emailed him a courtesy copy of the Criticism upon submitting it and Grant seems to have left america for Jamaica shortly thereafter.

As well as, the submitting of this case was extensively reported.

Along with that, I can verify Grant is an avid reader of BehindMLM.

Grant has been fast to delete YouTube movies referenced on BehindMLM up to now. Only in the near past we famous Grant going by “Dulse Poger” on Twitter.

Inside ~24 hrs of that article going reside, Grant modifications his Twitter deal with to “Nibiru”:

One attention-grabbing declare made by the SEC’s Jamaican course of server is that Grant resides along with his partner in Jamaica.

Someday between January 14 and 21, 2022, agent found that Craig Anthony Grant is married.

The agent knowledgeable me that Craig Anthony Grant resided along with his partner in Rock Spring.

I’m undecided how dependable this data is.

I’m conscious Grant married Victoria Misacova within the 2000s.

Vicky, as she was identified, met Grant by way of an internet relationship service.

As recounted by Grant;

I used to be deeply in love with the intentions to marry Vicky, this was the best if not solely means Vicky might get a visa to reside in Miami with me.

Within the months prior I had many conversations with Vicky about who I’m, and he or she knew I didn’t consider in marriage. I defined to her that I simply began making all this cash and I plan to do allot [sic] of touring and partying, and that she wouldn’t be the one girl in my life.

Grant and Misacova married in July 2000. What adopted was a sophisticated relationship between Grant, Vicky, escorts and different girlfriends.

A kind of girlfriends was Yuliana Avalos, aka Julie, whom Grant first met a number of years prior.

Over 2002 and 2003 Grant would father his second and third youngsters; two sons,  one from Vicky and one from Julie.

Vicky and Grant break up in 2004. I’m unclear on whether or not they ever bought divorced.

Grant and Julie continued on and stay collectively. They by no means married.

Because the SEC came upon once they tried service, Grant deserted Julie and his son in Florida when he fled for Jamaica.

The Fee first tried service on Grant at his deal with in Kissimmee, Florida in early June 2021, however was suggested by his former girlfriend at that deal with that he had relocated to Jamaica (at an unknown deal with).

Julie isn’t solely nonetheless with Grant, she’d travelled with Grant to his grandmother’s property greater than sufficient instances to know the place it’s.

We all know Grant and Julie are nonetheless collectively, as after he fled, Grant would frequently add voice calls to Julie and publish them to one in every of his YouTube channels.

Grant deleted these movies in late 2021, shortly after BehindMLM reported Grant was doubtless going through indictment within the US.

In any occasion until Julie has left the US someday between December 2021 and now, Grant resides by himself.

The property adjoining to the place he’s staying belongs to his grandmother. Whether or not she’s nonetheless alive is unclear.

Potential eventualities that come to thoughts are

  1. Grant has married Julie and he or she’s moved to Jamaica; or
  2. There’s some shenanigans happening with authorities information, making it appear to be Grant resides with a partner when he isn’t.

In any occasion the SEC have requested permission to impact service by way of three newspapers accessible in Jamaica.

If accredited, the SEC will publish a discover directed at Grant

as soon as weekly for 4 consecutive weeks, within the Jamaica publications Jamaica Observer and The Gleaner, and within the Worldwide New York Occasions.

The Fee understands that every of those publications is extensively circulated in Jamaica.

A choice on the SEC’s movement stays pending at time of publication.
