Jarett Dunn, who previously pleaded guilty to fraud in connection with an attack on the Solana meme coin platform Pump.fun, is seeking to withdraw his plea after his legal team quit the case. Initially, Dunn was charged with stealing approximately $2 million from Pump.fun, which he later claimed was an act of revenge against a platform he believed had harmed users for too long. In a dramatic turn during a hearing at Wood Green Crown Court, Dunn expressed a desire to vacate his guilty plea, surprising both the judge and his former lawyers, who advised against the change. Dunn now has two weeks to secure new legal representation as he prepares for a potential trial—where statements by witnesses from Pump.fun could be crucial. Despite previously proclaiming himself as crypto's Robin Hood, Dunn faces significant challenges in his legal battle, especially given his prior admissions of guilt.
