# Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok): community discussion 039

Community discussion, batch 039 (Sep 19, 2025 – Sep 21, 2025), 1,000 messages, on the Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok) case. This batch concentrated on the prosecution’s motion to oppose asset seizure, the fairness of court process, and investor response options. Participants argued about filing a 21 U.S.C. § 853(n) petition and a Crime Victims’ Rights Act motion (18 U.S.C. § 3771), with possible Brady-based requests, while disputing whether to prioritize asset recovery or broader public-pressure tactics. The thread also split over Luc’s conduct, Geyer’s authority, and whether legal claims should focus on money recovery versus case-direction influence. Community statements, not court findings.
