Tornado Cash Founder Roman Storm Faces Autumn Retrial on Money Laundering and Sanctions Violations
2026-06-17 09:52

Woofun AI reports that a U.S. court has formalized the pre-trial schedule for Roman Storm, founder of Tornado Cash, confirming an autumn retrial on charges of conspiracy to launder money and conspiracy to violate sanctions. The Office of the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York will proceed with these allegations following the judicial approval.

Concurrently, the court has yet to rule on Storm’s motion under Rule 29, which contends that the prosecution’s evidence is invalid. A successful ruling on this motion could overturn his August conviction for unauthorized fund transfers and potentially halt the retrial proceedings entirely.
