This legal document, dated July 16, 2019, is a filing from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York to Judge Richard M. Berman. The prosecution argues for the continued pre-trial detention of the defendant, citing the recent discovery of over $70,000 in cash, 48 loose diamonds, and a large diamond ring in a safe at the defendant's Manhattan residence. The government contends these assets demonstrate the defendant has the capability to flee the jurisdiction and should therefore not be released.
