Dan Snyder allegedly committed Bank Fraud with NFL assisting in Coverup



Daniel Snyder's final breakup from his longtime minority partners in Washington's NFL franchise began with a footnote in an April 2020 financial report.

The note revealed a $55 million credit line the team had taken out 16 months earlier without the knowledge and required approval of Snyder's minority partners -- the three billionaires who owned 40% of the franchise, according to documents obtained by ESPN.

The secret $55 million loan has become a primary focus of federal prosecutors in Virginia who are investigating allegations of financial misconduct by Snyder and the Washington Commanders, multiple sources with firsthand knowledge of the inquiry told ESPN.

A federal grand jury has issued subpoenas for a cache of documents related to the team's finances, including the loan. Prosecutors acquired the partners' NFL arbitration petition and other supporting materials, including emails and letters between team executives and bank lawyers, documents show. The criminal inquiry is being led by a team of FBI and IRS agents, sources said.

During a confidential arbitration, the former partners demanded that the NFL investigate the origin of Snyder's loan. But neither NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, whose signature granted league approval for the team to take on the new debt, nor the NFL arbitrator investigated the partners' allegation of financial wrongdoing, according to hundreds of pages of confidential NFL arbitration documents obtained by ESPN and more than a dozen interviews.

Loans and lines of credit obtained without the approval of Washington's board of directors violate the team's shareholder agreement, according to the documents. The documents also show Bank of America officials asked team executives repeatedly for proof that the board had approved the loan. But the team executives never turned over a copy of the board approval before the loan closed, and one team lawyer later acknowledged in a letter that the board approval doesn't exist, documents show.

Four days after the partners pressed the NFL arbitrator to seek proof that the loan was legally obtained, the documents show, the NFL moved to shut down arbitration proceedings. The partners begrudgingly agreed to mediation, led by Goodell, sources familiar with the matter told ESPN. The mediation resulted in the partners selling their shares, and it silenced their complaints against Snyder, the sources said. The NFL never conducted the partners' requested investigation of the loan, and the league levied no sanctions against Snyder related to the allegations of financial misconduct.

One source with firsthand knowledge of the proceedings told ESPN the partners believed Goodell and NFL general counsel Jeffrey Pash sided with Snyder over them.

"Three billionaires -- not a few whistleblowers -- alleged to the NFL arbitrator that their partner had possibly committed bank fraud," the source said. "This is jail time type of fraud. The NFL owes them as much of a fair shake as it owes Snyder. And the league had no interest in finding out what happened. They buried it and didn't investigate it and covered it up."

It’s not like this is in isolation. This whole comedy exposes how NFL owners can get away with a cartoonish amount of shit as long as they have money. Snyder has had a gazillion offenses where each one on it's own should have costed him the team.

Snyder allegedly also charged the franchise $10 million annually to use his own private jets

Commanders owner Daniel Snyder infuriated NFL owners and restarted conversations about potentially voting him out, according to reports from the Washington Post on Monday. Twenty four hours later, Snyder continues to look even worse after he allegedly was charging the franchise $10 million a year to use his own private jets as well as an additional $4.5 million to put the team's logo on his personal plane, according to ESPN.

In documents acquired by ESPN, Snyder called the $4.5 million charge "an advertising fee" despite the team's then-minority owners claiming Snyder's personal jet "provides little or no advertising value." The charges of $10 million annually and the one-time $4.5 million fee are also an issue because the minority owners who were in possession of 40% of the team did not consent to the spending.

Minority team owners Dwight Schar, Frederick W. Smith, and Robert Rothman, said Snyder was using the franchise as his "personal piggy bank," according to an arbitration petition filed with the league per ESPN. The alleged lack of ethics regarding the team plane spending, however, is just the tip of the iceberg regarding Snyder's unapproved financial decisions since some details of an FBI and IRS investigation into the team are centered around even bigger alleged financial misconduct, according to ESPN.


Snyder allegedly took on a $55 million loan through the Commanders without informing the minority owners and receiving their approval, which is critical because it came 16 months before buying out the individuals who held a combined 40% share of the team. This loan has reportedly been a key area of focus for federal prosecutors who are investigating financial misconduct.

A perfect example of how to abuse the write-off system.

Nothing will happen. People with loads of money get out of everything. People in power get away with everything because they know the dirt on people. We have seen this shit for 100 years.

Much much longer than that. Wealth and corruption go all the way back to ancient Mesopotamia.

Good points but the other owners are not going and make a push for anything but a large fine to get money. Federal prosecutors are all paid for by other billionaires in one way or another. All of them have nasty secrets they don't want exposed. All of this is will end with Dan being out as an owner and that's pretty much it. Dan will not get locked up.

I'm not talking the other owners. I'm talking the former minority owners that may have gotten absolutely ****ed out of what may have been a lucrative windfall by being forced to sell for a fixed price in Mediation
