Bank Fraud Charge Bring A Guilty Plea While Lead Defendant Moves to Suppress in SDNY

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, May 19 –  Henry Ogbuokiri is charged with bank fraud and aggravated identity theft. 

    On May 19, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Katherine Polk Failla held a change of plea proceeding. Inner City Press covered it. 

Ogbuokiri said he deposited fraudulent checks.

His lawyer said he's south of New York, so travel to the plea proceeding was avoided.

 Now his sentencing is set for September 30.

Meanwhile on September 23 Judge Failla held a proceeding for the named defendant, Oladayo Oladokun. It focused on the government's ability to search a car if officer saw inside a bank deposit slip. The defense said this is too broad. The AUSA said that even seeming innocent items could be used in this scheme.

The case is US v. Oladokun et al., 20-cr-3 (Failla)
