SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 26 – Adedayo Ilori is on
trial for a scheme to obtain
more than $7 million in
Paycheck Protection Program
(PPP) and Economic Injury
Disaster Loans -- and also for
identity theft, including for
using a bank card in the name
of a victim to purchase items
as a Manhattan coffee shop.
On October
26, 2022, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Mary Kay
Vyskocil was presiding over
the trial, while videos of the
coffee shop purchases were
played for the jury. Inner
City Press was there.
The
manager of the coffeeshop
identified Ilori waiting in
line, then inserting the bank
card; he was asked about
Square records. Ilori's
Criminal Justice Act lawyer
asked about "non cold brew
draft with an extra single;"
he paused his cross
examination to confer with his
client, who gesticulated and
pointed at the screen.
Behind him
were two U.S. Marshals. Ilori
is in detention, also on
violation of supervised
release in another identity
theft case before SDNY Judge
Lewis J. Liman.
This case is US
v. Ilori, 21-cr-746 (Vyskocil)
