SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 24 – Wilkin De Los Santos
in charged in a conspiracy to
false obtain iPhones for
resale.
On June 22,
2022 U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Analisa Torres
presided over his trial. Inner
City Press went and covered
it.
The
witness was describing dozens
of cell phones mailed from
states ranging from Wyoming to
Colorado. On the screen a
spreadsheet of the phone
transfers.
There was
been extensive pre-trial
motion practice about the
admission of business records.
On June 23, on
the stand being cross examined
was a cooperator who admitted,
after signing his plea deal,
to continuing to sell
Play-Dough to look like new
iPhones. He got a new
cooperation deal on June 20
and was asked about it. There
are crimes it does not cover.
On June 24, the
defendant was found guilty and
ordered to home confinement
pending sentencing: "ORDER as
to Wilkin De Los Santos: On
June 24, 2022, Defendant was
found guilty by a jury of
Counts One, Two, and Three of
the Indictment. Defendants
bail is continued but is
modified to include a
condition of home detention
with location monitoring. SO
ORDERED. (Signed by Judge
Analisa Torres on 6/24/2022)."
The case is US v.
