A student at College of Mount Saint Vincent in The Bronx was suspended for an Instagram post questioning George Floyd protests. Now it is a Federal case and Inner City Press has been covering it since 2:30 pm, will not live tweet the end then public story - thread

After three hours of argument, the judge is asking why the plaintiff -- "Annie Doe" -- has not moved out of her dorm room. The College gave her a referral to a homeless shelter.

Here's the beginning of the story Inner City Press started drafting: "Annie Doe - not her real name - while a student at the College of Mount Saint Vincent in Riverdale in the North Bronx posted on Instagram criticism of protests to the murder of George Floyd...

It's on - "the documents listed in Exhibit A... Opposition to Defendant Ghislaine Maxwell's Objections to Unsealing Docket Entries 143, 164, 172[,] 199, and 230." The rest is "subject to any further stay ordered by the Court of Appeals." Inner City Press thread

..."Deposition of Virginia Giuffre taken in the [STILL REDACTED] matter on January 16, 2016, and designated by Plaintiff as Confidential under the Protective Order... correspondence with Churcher re: Edwards Privilege communication."

..."Epstein required Jane Doe #3 to have sexual relations with [STILL REDACTED] on numerous occasions while she was a minor... [STILL REDACTED] would later play a significant role in negotiating the NPA on Epstein's behalf." [NPA = Non-Prosecution Agreement]

OK - Milo Yiannopoulos is appearing by phone before @SDNYLIVE Judge Failla, says he'd like to see Richard Spencer in jail but doesn't like "the funders of this lawsuit, the ADL." Inner City Press will live tweet - thread

Milo Yiannopoulos: I just publish stuff as I get it. Spencer spent $10,000 to doctor a video to make it appear I was singing to white nationalists. I'm happy to help them with this lawsuit, I just don't have anything. I'm happy to comply with any court order.

Judge Failla: I'll swear you in.
Milo Y: I'm a Christian.
Judge Failla: ... so help you God.
Milo Y: I do. I was served at the Roger Stone trial.
Judge Failla: The subpoena was from November 2019. And you met plaintiffs' counsel in Dec?
Milo Y: That sound right.

OK - in Joel & Mary Rich v. Fox, @SDNYLIVE Magistrate Judge Netburn is holding a discovery conference. Inner City Press will live tweet - thread

Fox' lawyer Meeks says she's prepared to give a hit log about a set of documents, not the documents themselves.
Judge Netburn: We're talking about fewer than 700 documents that contain key players in this case. I have a hard time believe these are not relevant

Judge Netburn: These 700 documents contain hits on Butowsky and Wheeler - how are they not relevant?
Meeks: Wheeler was a consultant, Bukowsky was a guest. Many of the hits are about news that has nothing to do with this case, or the DNC leaks.

OK - in #Honduras narco case of JOH & El Chapo, Otto Rene Salguero Morales is to be arraigned now. Lawyer also for his cousin says hasn't been able to speak with his incarcerated client. @SDNYLIVE Inner City Press will live tweet - thread

Judge Castel: Mr. Feitel, has your client spoken with you?
Inner City Press has covered the cousin / conflict: innercitypress.com/honduras33post…

Judge Castel: I understand Mr Freitel has a bail application. The circumstances of this case are somewhat unusual. Should I set a date in October for parties to return and say if there are any motion in the case?
Feitel: Yes, it's always prudent to have deadline.

Jury has asked about legality or illegality.
Schulte's lawyer Shroff: There's no testimony about it being legal or illegal. It's like them shooting rubber bands at each other in the CIA.
Judge Crotty: We need to review the indictment and the jury charge.

Judge Crotty: I'm going to call Juror 5 in and excuse her.
AUSA Laroche: I ask that the transcript of the robing room discussion be sealed until after there is a verdict.
