SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 9 – Oladayo Oladokun and a
dozen others are charged with
bank fraud and identity theft.
The complaint
against them says the
conspiracy opened more than
sixty bank
accounts.
On December 9 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Katherine Polk Failla held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
The scheme
involved accounts with names
like Front Paige Events,
PepCo, and King Metal Fencing.
One of the
defense counsel's phone froze
just as waiving Speedy Trial
Act time was discussed. He
returned, apologized and
agreed.
The next
conference is on March 9, and
time is excluded until then.
The case is US v.
Oladokun et al., 20-cr-3
(Failla)
