Samourai Developers Keonne Rodriguez and William Lonergan Hill Face Court for First Time, Defense Argues Against Money Transmitting Allegations
Samourai Wallet developers Keonne Rodriguez and William Lonergan Hill appeared together for the first time in court for a status conference in New York. The developers face conspiracy charges for committing money laundering and operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business.
The prosecution presented extensive discovery, including data from the developers' seized devices, while the defense argued it needed more time to review the evidence. Hill's attorney challenged the charges based on conflicting interpretations of financial regulations. In contrast, Rodriguez's attorney requested modifications to his bail, which the judge denied. The case is ongoing, with the defense pushing for more time and potentially a motion to dismiss.
