Summary
This document is a court transcript where a speaker, likely a prosecutor, argues against the notion that the defendant would have surrendered if asked. The speaker asserts the government arrested the defendant due to a serious flight risk and points to the defense counsel's uncooperative behavior in a separate civil case as further evidence of untrustworthiness. The speaker concludes by noting the lack of a substantive response regarding the defendant's finances.

1 Turning to several specific points, your Honor, that I
2 would like to respond to. I want to address the notion that
3 the defendant would have surrendered if the government had
4 asked her to. As defense counsel conceded, no offer along
5 those lines was ever made. And of course the government
6 doesn't have to accept the defense counsel's representation
7 that their client would surrender.
8 In fact, the fact that the government took these
9 measures to arrest the defendant reflects how seriously the
10 government takes the risk of the defendant of flight. Why on
11 earth would the government notify the defendant through her
12 counsel that she was about to be indicted and arrested if the
13 government had serious concerns that she was a risk of flight?
14 That is exactly what occurred here.
15 In addition, it is interesting that defense counsel
16 notes that it should have been obvious to the government that
17 the defendant would have surrendered when, at the same time, in
18 civil litigation in this district, defense counsel declined to
19 accept service on behalf of plaintiffs who were seeking to sue
20 the defendant in connection with some of these allegations, and
21 they were required to seek leave of the court to serve the
22 defendant through their counsel.
23 Your Honor, turning to the question of the defendant's
24 finances there is still at this point no substantive response
25 regarding defendant's finances or about the lack of candor to
