Translated “
Erik Prince (53) was head of the infamous US mercenary force Blackwater. He is considered the intimate of Donald Trump and Muhammad bin Zayid Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of the United Arab Emirates. And moves on the international stage only in the most elite circles.
In Austria, a free place in the dock is soon waiting for the billionaire. Prince is one of five people who the Wiener Neustadt Public Prosecutor's Office quotes in court. The prosecution authority has on the 20th. April filed a criminal complaint according to paragraph 7 of the War Material Act, confirms authority spokesman Erich Habitzl to the KURIER.”

thank god he's not incarcerated in Latin America!
Every lie needs a grain of truth to lend it credibility. And we know every slur and accusation they aim at us is 100% projection on their part. By Jove, I think I’m onto something! 
This from an article posted Feb of ‘21.
(Go back and read it, I neede a refresher, too. So much shit here.

Many questions about Project Opus remain unanswered, including who paid for the operation, which allegedly cost $80 million, according to the U.N. report. It is also unclear what happened to that money after the mission failed, and whether its architects had help from other governments such as the United Arab Emirates, which has long supported Hifter.
The U.N. is continuing its investigation, and the FBI has been asking questions about Prince’s involvement in the Jordanian deal and his connections to the Libyan conflict. (“The FBI cannot confirm the existence of an investigation into Mr. Prince,” a spokesperson told The Intercept.) If the U.N. Sanctions Committee approves the report’s findings, Prince would face a travel ban and have his bank accounts frozen. At least four countries have opened criminal probes into the alleged Libya plot as a result of the U.N. investigation, according to a Western official.
