Marlon and LaShonda Moore, co-founders of the Blessings In No Time MLM gifting scheme (BINT), appear to be having a mental breakdown.
Court filings have questioned whether the Moores are fit to stand trial, as husband and wife cling to a sovereign citizen defense.
The Moore’s (right) began asserting they weren’t under the jurisdiction of US courts
back in March
.
Despite facing a maximum penalty of 150 year prison sentence, the Moore’s have opted to represent themselves. Nonetheless the court appointed standby counsel as guidance, with recent reports detailing how the Moore’s defense is going.
From a December 9th report from LaShonda Moore’s standby counsel;
On October 3, 2025, the Defendant met with counsel but only stayed for approximately ten minutes.
On October 31, 2025, and November 14, 2025, jail personnel advised that the Defendant would not meet with counsel.

Save for limited initial consultations, Counsel has been able to observe his client only in a courtroom setting.
The defendant has since and continues to refuse to consult with counsel.
Although counsel could speculate that the Defendant’s choice not to participate in this prosecution or his defense is an issue of willingness and not capacity, counsel believes the same could be explained by legal incompetence.
[F]or the recent Faretta hearing held on December 9, 2025 .. [t]he Defendant’s responses to the court’s inquiry were not consistent with those of a person who had a basic understanding of the proceedings.
Marlon’s standby counsel has also requested a psychiatric or psychological examination.
