COURTHOUSE,
Jan 16 – Amid the news
of the arrest of the Alexander
brothers in Miami on SDNY sex
trafficking charges, in the
SDNY Magistrate Court on the
morning of December 11 the
superseding indictment was
"wheeled out" to District
Judge Valerie E. Caproni.
Inner City Press was there,
and X-ed it out.
On December 31
Tal Alexander's lawyer wrote
to Judge Caproni, on Patreon here
On August 21 Oren
Alexander retained two of the
defense lawyers in Sean Combs'
recent trial, Marc Agnifilo
and Teny Geragos, amid
pre-trial skirmishes.
On November 7
Inner City Press filed
opposition to the Alexander
brothers' extensive
redactions. Judge Caproni
cited and docketed the motion
on November 10, denying the
Alexanders' request and
ordering less redactions by
November 14, order and Inner
City Press letter on PACER here
and on DocumentCloud here
Late on December
11 Marc Agnifilo docketed his
Brady letter - now on Patreon
here.
On January 12,
the courtroom was abruptly
sealed after defense counsel
referred to sealed memo not
visible in the docket on
PACER. Inner City Press filed
a letter with the Court, on
DocumentCloud here.
Judge Caproni
denied it, citing 412. The
intent was to cover others of
the many sealed filing. But
onward-
On January 16,
citing the (same?) filings
that went in under seal on Jan
12, Judge Capronio ordered
that "not later that Friday,
January 23, the parties are
directed to file on the
docket, with appropriate
redactions, the letter motions
and briefings" - that's the
week day before opening
arguments. Inner City press
will report more at that time
(the jurors, selected January
20 to then, are to be
anonymous).
