Filed Proceedings: Fifth Circuit No. 25-50775
WHY THE TOP GOOGLE RESULTS ARE NO LONGER ACCURATE
If you search “Brad Croft San Antonio,” Google still surfaces headlines from 2021 claiming that a San Antonio dog trainer was sentenced to 10 years in prison for defrauding veterans.
Those articles do NOT reflect the current legal reality.
As of now, that conviction is under active Fifth Circuit supervision, supported by:
• Unopposed emergency bond motions
• A pending writ of prohibition
• Documented fraud on the court
• Judicial actions taken without jurisdiction
• Government silence on the merits
This is no longer a closed case. It is an unfolding constitutional crisis inside a federal prosecution.
THE CASE IS NO LONGER “POST-CONVICTION” — IT IS ACTIVELY UNRAVELING
1. Two Unopposed Emergency Bond Motions
• One pending in the district court
• One pending in the Fifth Circuit
• The Government has filed ZERO opposition to either
In federal practice, silence on bond—especially where fraud and structural constitutional violations are alleged—is not neutral. It is strategic avoidance.
2. A Live Writ of Prohibition Before the Fifth Circuit
The Fifth Circuit is currently reviewing whether:
• The trial judge may continue presiding at all
• The prosecution team is conflicted and disqualified
• The district court exceeded its authority after jurisdiction transferred to the appellate court
A writ of prohibition is extraordinary relief. It exists to stop judicial conduct that threatens the integrity of the judicial process itself.
THE FOUR PROVEN PILLARS OF FRAUD ON THE COURT
The current filings are not speculative. They are exhibit-driven and unrebutted.
Pillar One: A Pseudonymous Federal Agent at the Grand Jury
FOIA responses confirm that the IRS-CI agent presented to the grand jury under the name “Sean Scott” does not exist under that identity. Fraud at the grand-jury stage infects everything that follows.
Pillar Two: A Concealed FBI Conflict Inside the Defense Team
A “former but not former FBI agent” who helped open the investigation later sat embedded with the defense—without waiver, disclosure, or inquiry—creating a structural Sixth Amendment violation.
Pillar Three: Suborned Perjury by the Government’s Core Witness
The prosecution elicited testimony it already knew was false while suppressing Brady and impeachment material. The record now proves this conclusively.
Pillar Four: Judicial Ratification of the Fraud
The same false affidavit and conflicted filings were adopted in post-conviction rulings. A court cannot rely on fraud to deny a motion exposing fraud.
THE WIRE-FRAUD THEORY HAS COLLAPSED AS A MATTER OF LAW
Newly discovered Texas Veterans Commission documents confirm that applications were required to be mailed and that emailed submissions were expressly prohibited.
This renders the alleged “email to TVC” factually false and legally impossible under federal wire-fraud law.
Under Cleveland, Loughrin, and Dubin, the charged theory cannot support a conviction—and the district court itself has repeatedly stated that the testimony underpinning it was “not material to a finding of guilt.”
CONCLUSION
The story Google still tells about Brad Croft San Antonio is outdated.
The real story is this: a federal conviction is under active appellate scrutiny, supported by unrebutted evidence of fraud on the court, structural constitutional violations, and judicial actions taken without authority—while the Government remains silent.
