Some members of the Bitshares discord channel have raised doubts about whether the raid actually took place. So far, we only have Jared's account of it. I could find no other third party reporting from other sources when I googled it. One member on discord with knowledge of the US legal system has conducted paid searches of case files and has not found any reference to Arise Bank or Jared Rice in relation to this incident.
No local media has reported on the raid.
Jared is still free to speak (i.e. not in custody).
We shall wait to see if there are delays in case files being uploaded, but at the moment there is a lack of evidence. If names of those involved can be found that would at least provide evidence that the raid did in fact occur.
