Information on the case US vs. Sterlingov. #FreeRoman
Roman Sterlingov defence won a production part of what they sought from chainalysis. Chainalysis gave the defence sensitive proprietary information about their heuristics and bcs of this Chainanalysis requested that the Court enter a more stringent protective order, which was granted. One of the defenses expert witnesses will not sign the new protective order because it exposes them to potential liability. This is the problem with the Government using private vendor to conduct criminal investigations. This issue got the trial delayed from Sept to Oct. One of the defences important expertwitness - who they need for the full duration of the trial - was already to appear in another trial in October. The next available date was in february. Now this is a hard date. the Court will not move the trial date again.
To request for a move of the trial date was Romans own call. Roman spoke up in court and was super respectful and polite and spoke of how he would accept moving the trial to a date that could facilitate this expert witnesses appearance. The prosecution was trying to force an Oct. trial. They dumped loads of discovery and material on the defence on the eve of the trial which ment that the defence would not have had time to analyze the material during the trial. This continuance gave the defence 5 months to go through the last minute dump of discovery and material.
This situation also mean that Roman's lawyers need to raise more money for Roman's Defense. This time however they are gagged from discussing Roman's case on podcasts or media like they have in the past bcs of the more stringent protective order of the Court. If anyone can help spread the word and this link where people can #donate to Roman's defence that would be great. If the defence get enough funding they might not be able to afford some of their expert witnesses.
Please like and retweet and #donate❤️.
