$30,000 in cash from their home
30k$ at their own home? Wife is a lawyer/paralegal? This is getting interesting.
Anyone care to speculate what would be the use of 30k$ to be kept at home? AFAIK nobody in the family was running a cash-based small business. I know people occasionally keeping much more than that at home, but they are in the cash-intensive business not involving Bitcoins.
There are a number of legit things that would have caused them to have that kind of cash in their home. Primarily it could be for bitcoin trading. They also apparently have a lot of money so it could be the equivalent of their "emergency" fund.
His wife said on her website that one of her client's (work) sites were searched which caused the client to fire her company which cost her company millions of dollars. If they have millions of dollars to lose then they probably have enormous amounts of money. If your company makes millions of dollars then $30k really doesn't sound like that much.
I do think that they probably do have the resources to make heads roll, assuming that Burt really was not involved in anything that was actually illegal (meaning he was not involved in SR2, or any other dark market site at all). It appears that a number of people make mistakes throughout the case, most interestingly the magistrate who apparently authorized search warrants without probable cause to seize attorney-client privileged information, and then the proper procedures were not followed when such information was taken
