SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 28 – Neil Cole, the brand
manager charged with financial
chicanery was freed on $1
million bond on December 5,
2019 and allowed to travel
throughout the United States
by agreement of the US
Attorney's Office, contrary to
the "SDNY and EDNY only"
restrictions they routinely
place on less affluent
defendants.
SDNY Magistrate
Judge Barbara Moses accepted
the agreed bail conditions,
and said that they can be
appealed or asked to be
modified before SDNY Judge
Edgardo Ramos to whom the case
was assigned.
On October 6,
2021, the first jury trial
began and Inner City Press
live tweeted Day 1 here,

Amendment right against
self-incrimination. Letter on
