SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 7 – Stefan Gillier, a
Belgian citizen, was charged
with defrauding airplane parts
manufacturers out of millions
of dollars. Now he has health
problems in
detention.
On
September 30 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Richard M. Berman held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Gillier's
lawyer said his client was
recently moved from the MCC to
the MDC in Brooklyn (unlike,
say, accusing CIA leaker
Joshua Schulte, as Inner City
Press first reported).
In the MDC,
his lawyer said, Gillier
cannot be a salt free diet. He
washed the salt off food when
he can, and foregoes some meat
that is too salty.
Judge Berman said defense
motions were due by November
10.
On October 6,
2021, the case was reassigned
to Judge Paul A. Engelmayer.
He scheduled trial for July 5,
2022 - then, September 13,
2022.
On September 6,
Gilliers lawyer wrote to Judge
Engelmayer that "this morning,
I received a CORRLINKS message
from Mr. Gillier relaying that
he had been tested on Friday
and was moved to the 'Maras
Unit (83), highest security
unit here'" - with no laptop.
A delay was requested.
On September 7,
after a telephone conference
that Inner City Press covered,
counsel wrote in again, that
they scheduled a legal call
through "the Skedda online
booking system." But it hasn't
been working and Judge
Engelmayer's intervention with
the Legal Department of MDC
Brooklyn. Watch this site.
The case is
US v. Gillier, 11-cr-409
(Engelmayer)
