SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 22 – Viktor Litvintsuk
had pleaded guilty to
conspiracy to import
carfentenil into the United
States. On July 22 U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge J. Paul
Oetken held a Change of Plea
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Back in
May, Litvintsuk and his
co-defendants were arguing for
severance and Rule 15
depositions, which the
Government opposed citing
"Defendant's Statements to
Estonian Authorities." Part of
the US Attorney's opposition
was
redacted.
On July 22,
Litvintsuk said he had
arranged to purchase the
carfentanil and that he knew
it was for import into the US.
His sentencing
was set for September 18 at 11
am.
The case is US v.
Litvintsuk, 18-cr-678 (Oetken)
