OK - in @Eaze & #Wirecard trial, Day 6, still on the stand is cooperator Oliver Hargreaves, who on Monday named Wirecard, & yesterday named #OneCoin's Gilbert Armenta. Inner City Press has reporting, and will live tweet, thread below patreon.com/posts/48543661
Defense lawyer: You used the code, Medical services 8099, for marijuana?
Hargreaves: We thought it was elegant. A consultant proposed it.
Defense lawyer: In your second day as a cooperator, you told the US, It didn't work with Paynetics, correct?
Hargreaves: Yes.
Akhavan's lawyer: You told the agents, we tried to do marijuana delivery with Ray, right?
Hargreaves: Yes.
Akhavan's lawyer: And you didn't say, false, or misleading, or deceptive?
Hargreaves: No, sir.
Re-direct:
AUSA: Mr. Hargreaves, part of your cooperation with the government was to give full access to your phones and ProtonMail, correct?
Hargreaves: Yes.
AUSA: Let's put up Government Exhibit 3604. Do you remember this, one of the websites your team designed for the @Eaze scheme?
Hargreaves: A fictitious website. Ray and Ruben worked on it.
AUSA: These fraudulent business plans were sent to EUprocessing at ProtonMail dot com - that was Ruben [Weigand], correct?
Hargreaves. Yes.
Next witness in US v. Weigand / Eaze / Wirecard was long at Citibank, now at Bank of America, in "payments innovation." Not much time for questions - Judge Rakoff has another proceeding at 4 pm (which Inner City Press will also be covering.)
The BofA official says, "In the US, we do not do any kind of business with marijuana related businesses."
Gov't offers exhibits 2410, 2411.
Judge Rakoff: You may step down.
Judge Rakoff suggests to government they trim their case by a day. Then defense urges that an agent witness tomorrow be trimmed, as not having personal knowledge of the documents.
Judge Rakoff: If you're not contesting authenticity, the janitor would get them in
The trial's done for day. Story soon on InnerCityPress.com & patreon.com/posts/48486376
Interim update, morning of March 11:
Bank of America witness still on the stand, says BofA does not do marijuana business because illegal under Federal law. We'll have a bigger update on this @Eaze / #Wirecard case, by 8 pm if not before
In @Eaze / #Wirecard case, now questioning turns to Government Exhibit 2410, Bank of America's Enterprise Policy regarding Marijuana Related Businesses...
#BofA
In @Eaze / #Wirecard trial, now a witness is being asked about Government Exhibits 3703, 3704, 3705, "in evidence." So when are we going to get access to these exhibits? We've asked - watch this feed.

Judge Failla: This case was reassigned to me 25 and a half hours ago. Before Judge Vargas, I hear the production of documents was extended. How about tomorrow by noon - acceptable?
Nixon Peabody: No objection from NYU.
Judge: How do I say Stangio?
Just so
Judge Failla: Would I have to find bad faith in the Executive Orders, or the transition to grand jury subpoenas?

Sullivan & Cromwell for Goldman Sachs: This was a grossly inadequate discovery production, about their claimed investment in Celsius through her Bank of America account
Judge: They only gave you material from the public docket?
S&C: Nothing of substance
S&C for Goldman: They supposedly sold $12 million of these shares. But we have no info. We subpoenaed Bank of America but they say counsel to Ms. Lee tells them no, it's private.
[Kimora Lee's two lawyers are whispering]

Defense: Brent descended into drug use - that is why Danny wanted to get a divorce. Jane Pearl said yesterday, it was drugs and Lucas' wellfare. In Grindr, Danny had produced an ad there- DX 701
AUSA Grosbard: Objection!
Judge Ramos: Overruled.
Defense: Danny put an ad on Grindr saying, No drugs. That was his priority... Lucas continued to connect to Brent, he told Jane he wanted to enforce that obligation. He didnt' want Brent dead. He wanted Brent to get help with his drug problem. They had a fight
