Michael Williams, a Georgia-based state senator, has reported to the police after being accused of filing a false theft complaint of a cryptocurrency mining equipment and making an insurance fraud.

The Guardian has reported that Williams lied about the theft of the mining equipment worth $300,000. However, the court documents have revealed that he had made a false police complaint about the burglary in May 2018, which stated that the mining servers had disappeared from his office premises.

Although a full verdict has not yet been released, A.J. Richman, Williams’s attorney, has said that an indictment is not any kind of evidence. He has spoken in favor of the senator’s innocence. The allegations are also considered as a political witch-hunt.
