COURTHOUSE,
May 9 – A man pled guilty to
bank fraud without giving his
name on May 9 before U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Stewart D.
Aaron. Inner City Press was
there, the only media in the
SDNY Mag court.
The
defendant was arrested as
"First Name Unknown, Last Name
Unknown a/k/a Reginald Davis"
and detained in January 2024,
represented by Federal
Defenders.
On May 9,
now represented by a white
shoe Manhattan law firm, he
was brought in by U.S.
Marshals. The firm had four
people there. They had written
in that their client has a
Fifth Amendment right not to
give him name - even as he
pled guilty.
The AUSA, too, referred to
"Mister
LNU."
Apparently the
concern is that he could be
forced to incriminate himself
for the charge of using a
false name. Now that he has
pled guilty, under what name
will he be incarcerated?
The case is
USA v. FNU LNU a/k/a Reginald
Davis, 1:23-cr-678 (Berman /
Aaron)
