Part article: A judge approved the defense’s request for a laptop in August, but getting it in his hands has been slow because of modifications required to prevent misuse and the volume of evidence being saved to it.
The Manhattan district attorney’s office, which is prosecuting the state case, didn’t want him to have a laptop. Federal prosecutors didn’t take a position, and their spokesperson declined to comment Thursday.

Give him whatever he wants.

“Takes many weeks” just take the wireless chip out? It’s literally a component? You can fuckin wiggle it hard and itll break off. I dropped a laptop once and had to hardwire it.

To comply with jail regulations, she said, the laptop had to be sent to an outside technology vendor to disable its connections to the internet, printers and wireless networks — a process that took “many weeks to complete.”
Funny it only takes my IT dept about 5 minutes to do the same thing by disabling the connection and putting them behind admin privileges. Are they physically removing the parts?

This shit is trivial. Storage is cheap. Locking down an endpoint is baby shit.
Smells like lying, incompetence, or both.

As a software engineer, this must drive him crazy! Like he could do it less than an hour. But it’s been 8 MONTHS and still nothing! This is deliberate on the part of the prosecution

What did he do wrong to be in prison?

I bet if he was a child sex offender he would get one.

He should ask to borrow Maxwells computer in Texas, she doesn’t seem to have any trouble getting one. And she’s convicted not just accused.

It’s going to have multiple terabytes of discovery information on it. Part of the delay is they had to bring in an external hard drive to take spillover. The hearing is Dec. 1.
Even if he got it today, that’s a massive volume of information to analyze, go over with your attorneys, and get ready for a key hearing that’s less than a month away AND over the Thanksgiving holiday. That’s arguably 9 business days at most, and 16 calendar days assuming you have to say fuck it and work over both weekends and on Thanksgiving.
The defense attorneys are pointing this out to the judge – don’t be surprised if the Dec. 3 hearing gets pushed back.

So the DOJ is intentionally screwing up this case for it to get thrown out on procedural grounds, huh?

Have you opened the ticket so the technician can do this? No ticket, no support

They just want to Chuck Mangione in a cell and forget about him.

Just remove the wifi card, takes like 5 minutes max maybe a little more if it’s soldered

That’s just grounds for appeal-fuel that will later help him. Can’t have a fair trial with them doing stuff like that.

Not a fair trial.

The government LOVES fucking with people they are prosecuting. I dont know how many high profile cases(you know the ones that they KNOW people are actually watching) make it obvious that prosecutors and the court are just acting in bad faith. Its crazy. I can only imagine how vile they are with people that dont draw the attention of the masses.

Is this a common judicial order? It seems like a complicated process, substantial expense and high security risk, not to mention being unequal to the treatment every other defendant receives. And is there truly a deeply valid reason that the defendant themselves, without a law degree and experience in capital cases, absolutely cannot participate in their defense without access to the whole catalog of documents?

Has he asked Ghislaine Maxwell if he can borrow her’s when she’s having a spa day?

Open the laptop and cut the antennas what’s so hard about this.

To play devil’s advocate, I can *kind of* see the reasoning for this. There’s probably like one IT person in the entire prison system that is allowed to do this stuff and you obviously can’t just trust any random Geek Squad employee to alter tech that is being given to an inmate.

I’m excited for when he’s finally released. He’s truly a good man and deserves a hero’s welcome back into society <3
