Heather 'Razzlekhan' Morgan's Release From Prison Wasn't Us, White House Says
Summary
Heather Morgan, known as 'Razzlekhan,' who was sentenced for laundering proceeds from the Bitfinex hack, suggested on social media that President Donald Trump shortened her 18-month sentence, referencing a video where she thanked "Papa Trump."
However, a White House official explicitly told CoinDesk that her early release was not due to a commutation of her sentence. Morgan's husband, Ilya Lichtenstein, who stole nearly 120,000 bitcoin in the 2016 hack, is still serving his five-year sentence.
Morgan's early release is consistent with good behavior, but her social media posts, including one about Trump's pardon of Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, fueled speculation about presidential intervention. She is now hinting at a return to her rapping career.
