I just reviewed the interview with Sean David Morton and Kerry Cassidy (of Project Camelot). Thank you to OOM2 for posting this.
Wow. Mr Morton claims that his fraud charges from the SEC in 2010 were all the fault of his trader, Daryl Weber. He claims that Mr Weber did not follow his tried and true psychic predictions when investing all that money, but instead invested exactly opposite of what Mr Morton told him to. Ergo..money lost. But when you view the text of the actual SEC litigation release (February 15, 2013) you clearly see that a significant amount of the funds were funneled into personal "shell" accounts held by Mr. Morton and his wife, Melissa. OOPS !! He forgot to mention that fact !

A quick search finds another case, Saunders V Morton, where Mr Morton also was given a judgement against him in the amount of over $180,000.

I find it interesting that these were both default judgements. Mr Morton did not even show up to defend himself. Here is a copy of his reason :
Although the Court retains discretion to deny Saunders' request for default judgment, the Court sees no reason to recommend exercise of that discretion here. The Defendants, who apparently evaded service in this action, have not appeared and did not communicate with either the Court or Saunders in any way prior to defaulting on March 3, 2010. On April 6, 2010 — over a month after the entry of default — the Court received a sworn letter from one Susan Shumsky claiming that Sean Morton is an ambassador to the United States from the "Republic of New Lemuria," and that she is his "Executive Secretary." The letter argues that Morton's diplomatic status confers civil immunity upon himself and his wife, and that the repeated attempts to serve the Mortons constitute "harassment" that, in Shumsky's opinion, is "a clear violation of international law." (Doc. 44.)Obviously, the court did not buy this and Mr. and Mrs. Morton were left with the default judgement as I stated above.
Apparently, Mr. Morton is going to defend himself ?? He stated this recent arrest is really nothing and that all charges will be dismissed.
In the meantime, he has a "go-fund-me" campaign which he mentioned during the interview..(wink, wink). Maybe some of you would kindly send him a few dinars ? He really wants to get his next book out !
"The truth will set you free !"
Best to All-
