SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 11 – The
prosecution of
the brother of
Honduras'
president for
guns and drug
running began
with a bang on
October 2 with
the charge
that already
life
imprisoned El
Chapo Guzman
gave the
defendant $1
million for
this brother,
the president.
On October 8,
sworn witness
Alex Ardon
further
described the
meeting, with
both El Chapo
and Tony
Hernandez
present and
the cash in
plastic bags,
and then got
cross examined
about killing
56 people, see
thread, Patreon and below.
The
trial is
before U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York Judge
P. Kevin
Castel and
Inner City
Press is live
tweeting
it. See also
Patreon here
on the fast
mention and
shut-down of
Nikki Haley's
name.
On October 11
much of the
direct and
cross
examination
concerned a
video filmed
of Tony
Hernandez in a
Denny's in
Tegucigalpa,
which Inner
City Press has
put online here.
Here
from the thread
is some of how
it came up:
...
The
questioning
turns to Los
Cachiros,
Devis Leonel
Rivera
Maradiaga
..AUSA: So
this meeting
in a
restaurant in
Tegucigalpa,
how did you
record it?
[Referring to
exhibit 401].
A: With a
watch. AUSA:
Where did you
get the watch?
A: I bought
it. AUSA: And
afterward you
gave the
recording to
the DEA? A:
Yes....
Tony
H's lawyer
asking a lot
of questions
about the
watch-recording
in Denny's:
who decided
when to turn
on the camera
and when to
turn it off,
did it use
blue tooth...
Q: How did you
turn over the
footage to the
DEA? A: On a
card
Tony
H's lawyer:
Weren't you
afraid you
would be
followed?
A:
No, I had just
bribed the
brother of the
president...
On October 10
there were
arguments
until the end
of the day
about whether
larger
portions of
Tony
Hernandez'
post arrest
statement than
so far shown
to the jury
should come in
to evidence.
Judge Castel
chided the
defense for
not objecting
earlier, but
gave them a
chance. He
said both
sides should
submit on the
issue by
Sunday and
noon.

and other SDNY and 2nd Circuit
