COURTHOUSE,
Nov 20 – In a multi-defendant
car theft and fraud case,
differnt bail packages were
offered on November 13 in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court. Inner City
Press was there, the only
media, and tweeted.
One
defendant was freed on a
$250,000 unsecured bond.
Another was offered $100,000
bond, but was told the GPS
could not be installed until
Monday and so he would stay
detained. Another
co-defendant consented to
detention, his lawyer
remarked, because he had an
outstanding murder charge.
The lead
defendant was released on a
$300,000 unsecured bond. The
case was still sealed, pending
a release the follow day.
Cited were CarFax and switched
VIN numbers on
cars.
On November 20
another co-defendant, Rojas
Cruz, was presented and
released on $100,000 unsecured
bond, with the condition he
not drive any car not
disclosed to Pre-Trial
Services, and not speak with
any co-defendant other than
his father.
The case is
USA v. Lopez Marte, et al.,
1:25-mj-3584 (Parker /
Tarnofsky)
