The guy hasn't even had  a trial yet and they are selling off his property. Thats some next level bullshit right there.
Evidently the court can do this.  Who knew?  I assumed they would have to wait until after the trial.  Learn something new every day.

From what I understand DPR has claimed ownership interest of the 144,000 BTC so that will tie up those BTC for a while.

I assume they can sell the smaller wallet sooner since DPR did not contest the ownership of those BTC.
