# Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok): community discussion 066

Community discussion, batch 066 (Dec 26, 2025 – Jan 4, 2026), 892 messages, on the Guo Wengui / Miles Guo (Ho Wan Kwok) case. From Dec 26, 2025 to Jan 4, 2026, this 892-message thread moved from a narrative that imprisonment would force change to legal process disputes. Participants argued over CVRA, §853(n), and mandamus timing versus strengthening verifiable materials first. They disputed hearing sequence, filing order, and costs for the Second Circuit, while challenging evidence reliability, prosecutorial role, and seized-asset control, citing Dkt. 782, Rule 53, Rule 11, Document 233, Document 720, and Document 750. Community statements, not court findings.
