Summary
This document appears to be a transcript of a legal argument asserting that a jury had sufficient evidence to infer an individual's knowledge of a scheme to defraud the IRS. The argument cites testimony from multiple individuals, including Sandra Burnside and Carrie Yackee, describing an 'avalanche of work' in December to finalize tax shelter transactions, implicating Mr. Parse and Ms. Yackee at Deutsche Bank. The speaker refutes a suggestion from Mr. Shechtman's brief that Deutsche Bank's approval of the transactions meant that only a few people knew the full extent of the scheme.

1 So it's quite clear the jury was entitled to infer that he knew
2 that this was being done to change the results of the tax
3 losses. He also knew, and there is more than a plethora of
4 evidence on this, that each of these tax shelter transactions
5 had to be completed by year end. And that's why, as Mr. Bair

7 Sandra Burnside, you might recall, Mr. Daugerdas'
8 secretary, testified about the avalanche of work that went on
9 in December at the end of the tax years in order to finalize
10 these transactions. Well, that avalanche of work hit the
11 offices of Mr. Parse's desk. And as Carrie Yackee testified,

13 So to suggest that he was not aware this was being
14 done in order to defraud the IRS as the true results of the
15 transaction we submit is unsupportable.
16 There was a suggestion in Mr. Shechtman's brief, I

20 Well, first of all, Carrie Yackee's testimony here
21 that she was going to Mr. Parse for approval on these

25 transactions for these particular taxpayers were tax shelter
