SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 29 – Just after the
indictment of electric vehicle
maker Nikola's founder Trevor
Milton was unsealed, a press
conference was held in the
Southern District of New York
prosecutors' office. Inner
City Press went and asked
about the SEC complaint's
reference to Milton targeting
"Robinhood investors." Video
here.
US
Attorney Strauss and her SEC
colleague (on the job for all
of one week) both deferred
comment on particular
companies or phenomena like
Robinhood, or Elon Musk, or
SPACs. But it seems there will
be more prosecutions coming -
including in the
crypto-currency space?
On the way from
the courthouse to the presser,
next to the MCC a dozen
Federal law enforcement
officers with shotguns stood
by a line of white cars. They
were not electric, and this
was not for Milton. He will be
presented later on July 29
before SDNY Magistrate Judge
Sarah Netburn, and Inner City
Press will be there in the Mag
Court. Milton's reps, not
allowed in to the press, have
promised Inner City Press and
others some answers. Watch
this site.
