SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 2 – In a three-defendant tax fraud case, on January 2 Israel Pellot turned himself in at 290 Broadway at 8:30 am. Just after noon he was presented and arraigned in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrates Court. Inner City Press was there, the only media present, and live tweeted:
It's part of larger US v Holtz case.
Magistrate Judge Jennifer E. Willis: How do you plead?
Defense: Not guilty.
Judge: Does the US seek to detain?
AUSA: No, we propose $250,000 unsecured bond, co-signed by his mother as moral suasion.
Judge: Mr. Pellot, based upon my review of the indictment... and the agreement of the Government, I am prepared to release you.
The case is USA v. Holtz, et al., 1:25-cr-580 (Vyskosil)dny
