Michael Mancil Brown Charged In Mitt Romney Tax Returns Scheme

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A Tennessee man was charged Wednesday in a scheme involving former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's income tax returns during the 2012 campaign.

The U.S. Justice Department said a federal grand jury in Nashville indicted Michael Mancil Brown, 34, of Franklin, and charged him with six counts of wire fraud and six counts of extortion.

Brown is accused of having an anonymous letter delivered to the PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP accounting firm in Franklin last August, demanding that $1 million in digital currency be deposited to a Bitcoin account to keep some of Romney's income tax returns from being released. The Justice Department said Brown falsely claimed that he had gained access to the PricewaterhouseCoopers internal computer network and stolen tax documents for Romney and his wife, Ann Romney, for tax years before 2010.

A phone number listed for Brown had a message saying it was not receiving incoming calls. He did not immediately return an email message sent Wednesday evening.

The letter said interested parties who wanted the purportedly stolen returns released could contribute $1 million to another Bitcoin account. Bitcoin is a hard-to-trace form of electronic cash.

The Justice Department statement said similar letters were delivered to Democratic and Republican party offices in Franklin.

The letters claiming two decades' worth of the Romneys' tax returns had been stolen came amid last year's Republican and Democratic conventions.

At the time, Romney had steadfastly declined to release more than one year of tax returns, for 2010, and Democrats were trying to portray him as so wealthy he was out of touch with middle-class voters. Last fall, Romney also released his income tax returns for 2011.

Computer thumb drives were delivered with the demand. The letter said the tax returns delivered on the thumb drives were encrypted and more copies would be sent to "all major news media outlets" with the passwords to be released if payment wasn't made.

'Jayne Mansfield's Car' Trailer: Billy Bob Thorton Returns To Writer/Director Chair In New Multi-Generational Dramedy

"Jayne Mansfield's Car" is the first feature film Billy Bob Thornton has written and directed in 12 years, and its new trailer finds the Oscar winner donning a thick Southern accent as an Alabama native. "Car," set in the late 1960s, depicts a multi-generational family that clashes when their British counterparts -- one of whom is referred to as "that English bastard" -- call to inform them of the death of their matriarch.

Robert Duvall plays the head honcho of the Alabama family, while John Hurt leads the London clan. Thornton, Kevin Bacon and Robert Patrick play the three Southern siblings, with Tippi Hedren, Frances O'Connor and Robert Stevenson rounding out the cast. Co-written by frequent Thornton collaborator Tom Epperson, "Car" hits theaters Sept. 13. Will it net Thornton a second screenplay Oscar, following his win for 1996's "Sling Blade"? Watch the trailer and weigh in.

Go, Joe! Set for release in the summer of 2012, "G.I. Joe Retaliation" will arrive in theaters in 2013 with more dimensions (it's in 3D) and more Channing Tatum (reshoots were done to add the 2012 It-Boy to further scenes).

More Gosling! 2012 was unfortunately devoid of The Gos, but 2013 will feel like 2011 all over again. In addition to "Gangster Squad," Gosling stars with Bradley Cooper in this indie thriller from Derek Cianfrance ("Blue Valentine").

All Gats everything. Baz Luhrmann -- with some help from Jay-Z -- adapts the famed F. Scott Fitzgerald novel of excess in West Egg. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as the title great one; Tobey Maguire is Nick Carraway.

Secrets: The final frontier. J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek" sequel is a mystery wrapped in a riddle wrapped in three dimensions. Benedict Cumberbatch plays the bad guy who isn't Khan. (Or is he?)

The 2012 festival favorite stars Greta Gerwig as the title Frances, a young woman who doesn't totally have her life together (but does have it together enough to dance down the street while David Bowie plays on the soundtrack). Noah Baumbach directs.

Last call for The Wolf Pack.

Yep, another one.

Will Smith stars with his son Jaden Smith in the latest from M. Night Shyamalan.

What happens when "Inception" meets "The Prestige"? This, apparently.

You never got that "Wedding Crashers" sequel, so "The Internship" will have to suffice. Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson star, of course.

You will believe Zack Snyder can make a good movie.

The incredibly filthy (and funny) red band trailer above does more to goose enthusiasm than any little blurb could ever hope. Early contender for the most lolarious movie of 2013.

Brad Pitt fights zombies.

This prequel to "Monsters Inc." takes Sully and Mike back to college.

Jamie Foxx is the President of the United States. Channing Tatum is the Secret Service agent in charge of protecting him. Roland Emmerich is the director. This is going to be the most ridiculous(ly awesome) blockbuster of 2013.

Monsters vs. robots!

Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade and Kevin James reunite for another installment of "Grown Ups." From the files of "why not?": Taylor Lautner co-stars.

Neill Blomkamp's last film was "District 9," so everyone should be sufficiently excited for "Elysium." Matt Damon and Jodie Foster star.

Nothing says summer action duo like Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds.

He's back and better than ever. At least that's what everybody hopes following "X-Men Origins: Wolverine."

Aubrey Plaza's indie sex comedy stars your favorite people (Plaza, Rachel Bilson, Connie Britton, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Andy Samberg).

Ben Affleck and Justin Timberlake go toe-to-toe in this drama about online gambling

Vince Vaughn is back in a new comedy about a man who realizes his many trips to the sperm bank 20 years earlier led to 533 children. Yep. TV faves Chris Pratt and Cobie Smulders co-star.
