SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 14 – A week after nine
defendants in an alleged
conspiracy to pay bribes for
confidential information about
motor vehicle accident victims
in a no-fault insurance scheme
were presented and bailed out
on November 7, 2019 by U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Gabriel W.
Gorenstein, another
co-defendant was presented on
November 14.
It was Mrs
Rose, in a wheel chair and a
hat. Quickly bailed, with
forthcoming financially
responsible co-signers barred
from being the same as used by
relatives, next stop will be a
mass status conference before
Judge Paul G. Gardephe. Inner
City Press will stay on this.
Back on November
7 the government asked for a
$150,000 bond for defendant
Eddie Abayev.
This was
triple the $50,000 the
government requested for the
other co-defendants brought
out of the holding cell with
him. The Assistant US Attorney
made a point of telling Judge
Gorenstein, on the record,
that when Abayev after arreste
was given access to his phone
ostensibly to get some
information like a phone
number off it, he used the
chance to delete from his
phone an application,
specifically WhatsApp.
Apparently
that put Abayev on the hook
for $100,000 more than the
co-defendants around him.
Earlier in
the afternoon the government
asked to detain the alleged
ringleader, Anthony
Rose.
Judge Gorenstein
asked, What is the sentencing
guideline?
I
have the loss amount but I
don't have the guideline with
me at the moment, the
Assistant US Attorney replied.
"I have a book," Judge
Gorenstein said, handing the
AUSA the sentencing guidelines
book, so often waved around in
the SDNY. "Take your
time."
More than two
minutes later, the AUSA
estimated a potential
sentencing of 25
years. Judge
Gorenstein called that figure,
based on the imposition of
consecutive sentences, highly
unlikely.
Calling it a
close case, he offered Anthony
Rose conditions of release: a
$1 million month secured by
$20,000 and his mother's home
and no contact with
co-defendants, which includes
his wife Tara Rose.
Rose's Federal Defender had
offered that Rose's mother
could take care of Tara Rose.
Apparently she is being
counted on for that, and to
put up her home, not yet
committed to or confirm.
Unless all
the conditions are met,
Anthony Rose will remain in
detention. The government said
he has 13 pseudonyms, burner
phones and recently visited
Cuba, and that a warrant for
his Apple electronics found
him discussing moving his
whole operation to Costa Rica.
Jump-cut to June
14, 2021. Antony Rose is out
on pre-trial release - and he
has just written to Judge
Gardephe for permission for a
big business trip from July 3
onward, "selling natural hair
for Ethnicity Hair Collections
(EHC)," to Puerto Rico, SC,
LA, GA, NC. Watch this site.
This
multi-defendant case is US
v. Rose et al, 19-cr-789
(Gardephe / Gorenstein).
