NO SHOW: Larry Ray was supposed to be brought here to court for his argument that suffocating Claudia Drury was not physical injury, only fear. But it will go forward without him. Threadette below
Apparently, because Larry Ray kept pimping Drury out after strangling her, her "work was not impaired." That's what Federal Defenders are arguing. #JohnListGone
Judge Liman asks, What if a person emailed a photo of a gun in order to menace? And notes he is not bound by the DOJ guidance that Federal Defender cited
Assistant US Attorney says this turns on obstructed airway. And "being suffocated with BDSM collar." Larry Ray's Federal Defenders will be appealing. But he remain in jail - at least for now...
Note: the implications of Federal Defenders argument that suffocation is not physical injury on #ICantBreathe cases and even #GeorgeFloyd are troubling. Story later.

Judge: The Court has received filings by Does, seeking to keep the information [and they names] sealed. Now that Ms. Maxwell's criminal trial is concluded, she takes no position on the non-party Does...
Judge: Guiffre supports the redaction of Doe 28's name. Just because *some* information has been been in previous court cases does not mean the Does have lost a privacy interest [citing a 2019 Judge Kaplan case]. So in some cases I will preserve sealing
