This document is a transcript from a court hearing on April 1, 2021, concerning a defendant's bail. A government representative, Ms. Moe, argues that the defendant is a significant flight risk due to possessing multiple passports, large sums of money, and international connections, and should therefore be detained pending trial. The judge clarifies with Ms. Moe that the government's sole basis for requesting detention is the risk of flight, not any danger the defendant poses to the community.
