Biography
Parnas was born in Odessa, the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, in 1972 to a Jewish family. His family brought him at the age of three to the U.S., first to Detroit, and then a year later to Brooklyn. He was a student at Brooklyn College and Baruch College. He also worked at Kings Highway Realty, where he sold Trump Organization co-ops. Also, over the course of a year beginning in 2018, the two men allegedly introduced Giuliani to Ukrainians who were working at exposing significant “corruption surrounding Hunter Biden and Burisma.” These included Yuriy Lutsenko, a former Prosecutor General of Ukraine, who was crucial to Giuliani’s efforts to produce damaging information. Viktor Shokin, also a former Prosecutor General of Ukraine, was part of this group..
In 2013, Parnas founded a firm he named “Fraud Guarantee”. Parnas had chosen the name after he personally experienced cleaning up his Google search results after accusations of fraud in previous ventures. Florida authorities had apparently dissolved Fraud Guarantee in September 2014 for failing to file an annual report, which would have limited the company to activities related to closing itself down.
Late in 2018, Giuliani allegedly sent the two to Ukraine to search for damaging information on Trump’s U.S. political rivals. According to The New York Times, “Their mission was to find people and information that could be used to undermine the Special Counsel’s investigation, and also to damage former Vice President Joseph R. Biden.” Both were allegedly also at the center of the pro-Trump forces’ push to remove Ambassador Yovanovitch, because her loyalty to President Trump was deemed deficient as Trump pursued his agenda there. It is also alleged that the two pressed for support for allegations that former Ukrainian officials schemed to manipulate the 2016 election to support Hillary Clinton, by revealing adverse information about Paul Manafort, chairman of Trump’s campaign, which became a central element in Mueller’s special counsel investigation.

Parnas has also been involved in Jewish charities and causes in the U.S., Ukraine and Israel.

Some of the money to potentially fund efforts by Giuliani, Parnas, and Fruman appears to have come from a Republican donor and Trump supporter Charles Gucciardo. Gucciardo’s attorney claimed his client’s $500,000 was an investment made in 2018 with Parnas’ firm Fraud Guarantee. These funds in turn were claimed to be a retainer fee from Fraud Guarantee to Giuliani. According to Giulani, he was “ramping up” the business.
Giuliani stressed that owing to these two “lies” that nothing in the two Parnas interviews should be believed. Giuliani also insisted that Parnas was wrong when he implicated William Barr. Giuliani said he never spoke to Barr about it and that it was wrong to accuse Barr of being part of it. When he was asked if he directed the surveillance of the Ambassador to Ukraine, Giuliani replied “I can definitely tell you I didn’t.”

On November 22, 2019, Parnas stated to CNN that he would be willing to testify to Congress regarding his, Representative Devin Nunes (R-CA), Giuliani’s and Trump’s role in the Ukraine affairs. Documents released to a watchdog group show communication took place between Giuliani and Pompeo shortly before Ambassador Yovanovitch was removed from her post.

Giuliani notes that Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas were present at the meeting. Shokin was ousted from his job in 2016 because of his lack of attention to corruption cases.

The New York field office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), along with SDNY prosecutors, were believed to be conducting a criminal investigation of Giuliani’s relationship with Parnas and Fruman. Giuliani is under investigation for potentially violating lobbying laws.
Parnas and Fruman were arrested on the evening of October 9, 2019, at Dulles International Airport, and charged with planning to direct funds from a foreign government “to U.S. politicians while trying to influence U.S.-Ukraine relations”. They had one-way tickets to Frankfurt, Germany, and were reported to be going to Vienna, Austria. The reason for their arrest was described as a “complex web of financial and political interactions linking diplomacy to alleged violations of campaign finance law.” The head of the New York’s FBI office described the investigation as “about corrupt behavior, deliberate lawbreaking”.
