Ex-Goldman bank Tim Leissner is the star witness against his former coworker, defendant Roger Ng.Leissner’s links to TPG arose earlier in the trial. The star witness said he previously helped the daughter of disgraced ex-Malaysian prime minster Najib Razak to get a job at TPG Asia. Najib is currently in prison for his role in the 1MDB corruption scandal.

The emails were sent to Leissner’s future wife, model Kimora Lee Simmons, as well as Malaysian financier Jho Low – another key figure in the corruption scandal.
Leissner said he initially posed as Chan while trying to convince Simmons — whom he was dating at the time — that they were no longer legally married. He continued the charade for years, holding full conversations with Simmons as Chan about family vacations and other events – at one claiming that Simmons was responsible for an IRS audit targeting Leissner.
Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo said the email scheme was proof that Leissner was a “rare, cunning liar” whose testimony couldn’t be trusted.who was twice married to two women at once. Leissner later admitted that he “faked” divorces to marry other women while he was still legally wed. Leissner has already pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy to launder money and conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. He agreed to forfeit $43.7 million and will be sentenced for his role in the scheme later this year. – some of which Goldman helped to raise through bond sales – to fund their lavish lifestyle.
