SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 17 – Andrew Franzone was arrested for fraudulently inducing victims to purchase limited partnership interests in an investment fund by means of misrepresentations and omission. But, with retained counsel, he is seeking to suppress.
On September 12, 2022, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Vernon S. Broderick held an in-person suppression hearing. Inner City Press went and covered it.
Franzone was arrested, then later the room was searched. Afterward Judge Broderick ordered the government to submit an affidavit listing the investigative steps taken between Franzone's arrest on April 22, 2021 and the request for the second search warrant on May 21, 2021, and on communications with the Westin Hotel.
The affidavit(s) are due by September 30, with Franzone's counsel to submit a supplemental brief by October 7.
The case is US v. Franzone, 21-cr-446 (Broderick)
