SDNY COURTHOUSE,

civil case involving Guo

District of New York, which
Inner City Press closely
covered, here,
March 15, 2023 saw the
unsealing of a twelve-count
Indictment of Miles Guo
onvarious wire fraud,
securities fraud, bank fraud,
and money laundering charges.
On May 22, Inner
City Press live tweeted jury

pool.

Guo was
convicted. And on September 10
Judge Torres granted a defense
letter motion and moved Guo's
sentencing to December 9:
"GRANTED IN PART. Sentencing
is this matter is adjourned to

Letter and
endorsement (order) on Patreon

On November 22
for Yvette Wang the US
Attorney's Office asked for a
ten year sentence, 31 page
sentence memo on Patreon here.
On December 13,
with nothing in the public
docket asking for or
explaining it, Judge Torres
scheduled a change of counsel
for Guo.
Inner City Press
went on December but was
quickly asked to leave the
courtroom. When allowed to
return, from the thread:
On Miles Guo,
sentencing has just been
postponed; the lawyers who
defended him at trial have a
filing due Dec 30. Will it be
public?
