SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 16 – Yoga To The People
founder Gregory Gumucio was
indicted for tax fraud this
month.
On August 31 the
prosecutors sought to impose a
$1,000,000 bond and home
incarceration. Instead they
got a $250,000 bond and GPS -
and Gumicio got a free (or tax
payer funded)
lawyer.
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Jennifer E.
Willis, on duty this week,
held the bond hearing. Inner
City Press was in the
Magistrates Court, as usual,
and live tweeted it here
The other
co-defendant is Michael
Anderson.
Checking in on
June 30, 2023, ten months into
the case, and there have been
ten requests for a continuance
in the interest of justice,
and still no indictment. What
gives?
On January 3,
2024, six month later, the US
Attorney's Office wrote in of
Gregory Gumucio that "the
parties have reached an
agreement in principle and the
defense is currently reviewing
a written plea offer," status
by January 17.
On October 4,
Inner City Press attended
Gumucio's guilty plea. Thread
On October 23,
co-defendant Michael Anderson
followed suit and pled. His
defense lawyer said he
disagreed as to Gumucio but
that his client had done what
he allocuted to.
On June 16, 2025
Gumucio's Federal Defender
wrote in asking for a sentence
of five years probation, no
prison.
The case is now
USA v. Gumucio, et al.,
1:23-cr-595 (Cronan)
