Justin Magnuson, a successful Dallas entrepreneur, was accused of conspiring to traffic over 1000 kilograms of marijuana and launder millions of dollars. Seitles & Litwin confronted the prosecutors with evidence that Justin was neither a drug trafficker nor money launderer, and convinced the government to dismiss the federal indictment in exchange for a lesser charge, sentence of time-served with no fine or supervised release. Justin was released in April 2022 after serving 20 months in a small county jail in east Texas for a crime that he did not commit.
Only a few months after being released, Justin established The Justice Reform Foundation, a non-profit organization aimed at helping those negatively affected by the criminal justice system.
