SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 12 – Robert Jeffrey
Johnson and two others have
been indicted for a precious
metals leasing program fraud
scheme involving a silver
warehouse in Florida that
never existed.
On
July 12, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Edgardo Ramos
held a proceeding. Inner
City Press covered it.
Bail
terms were affirmed, and CFTC
emails were discussed.
The next
proceeding was set for
September 16 at 10 am - by
phone, Judge Ramos agreed,
with the defendants all in
Florida (unlike the silver).
The other two defendants are
Ross Baldwin and Kathleen
Hook.
The case is US v.
Johnson, et al., 21-cr-428
(Ramos)
