In other words there was dilution price manipulation
When Newton sold those 2.1 Billion shares to Gendarme, he diluted the share structure and forced the pps down.
if not we would not expect the price to go up if or when there was a SEC ordered buy in of the illegally sold shares.
No one is going to order a buy in of perfectly legitimate shares.
If the payroll clerk at work screws up and deposits your paycheck a week early, she is going to be reprimanded or fired. You on the other hand are NOT a victim. The money in your account is not counterfeit, nor is it unspendable. You have not been hurt and cannot expect any kind of restitution.
That is what happened here. The shares are perfectly valid shares, they have exactly the same value they would have iff Gendarme still owned them. No victims, no restitution.
