Prosecutors say that the person reported to be GOP operative Paul Erickson, with whom Butina reportedly told the Senate Intel Committee she had a romantic relationship, was used. "...she appears to treat that relationship as simply a necessary aspect of her activities." 
"The FBI has uncovered evidence during the course of executing several search warrants that, during the course of her deployment to the United States, Butina was in contact with officials believed to be Russian intelligence operatives."
"For example, on at least one occasion, Butina offered an individual other than U.S. Person 1 sex in exchange for a position within a special interest organization."

In Butina hearing, (now recessed) Butina’s attorney says that she received a letter from the FEC on 3/12/18 asking about contributions to a political committee. This suggests an FEC inquiry into whether Russians steered illegal donations to Trump/GOP.
Butina’s attorney, Mr. Driscoll, also referenced her interactions with Alexander Torshin and the NRA, seemingly confirming the very obvious: Those are the unnamed Russian official and the gun rights group referenced in prosecutors’ filings.
Without pausing to mull, Magistrate Judge Robinson orders Butina held without bond due to flight risk.
She’s imprisoned until trial.
Judge said preponderance of evidence supporting denying bond.

Prosecutors also revealed that US Person 1 in court filings, who presumably is conservative activist Paul Erickson, has been investigated by feds for fraud, in a separate matter from the charges against Butina. Her residence was searched as result.
