OK - now in Honduras narco-case including Prez JOH & brother Tony, now Geovanny Fuentes Ramirez has a proceeding before Judge Castel - Inner City Press will live tweet, thread below
The US Attorney's Office has asked for "Witness-1" to testimony under a pseudonym, and for jurors and "venire" (prospective jurors) be left unnamed, due to threats of retaliation and "inability of Honduran government to protect witness."
Or unwillingness?
Judge Castel: I presided over the Hernandez Alvarado trial, but this one will be different. Defense?
Defendant's counsel: I understand reading between the lines what your Honor is saying [about corruption in Honduras] and the alleged homicide...

AUSA is asked why DOJ allowed others accused of pressuring people to "return" to China. He says, Angwang had a duty to disclose his link, and is tied to Chinese diplomatic mission in New York (UN).

Judge Meriweather: Maybe I was given the wrong [pre-trial] report.
Inner City Press has reported on Pezzola: innercitypress.com/ddc9antifasuar…
Judge: He has no criminal history; he has children and a spouse
Judge Meriweather: The danger is that Mr. Pezzola would engage in further activities like storming the US Capitol or other government buildings. In making that predictive judgment, I had to think if there were conditions, GPS for example
