#BigU’s co-defendants in his federal RICO case want to push back their trial, scheduled to start later this month. Their attempt to do that has brought something startling to light: the sheer volume of evidence in the case. In a new court filing, the government reveals that it has a mountain of material against the former #NipseyHussle manager and his six co-defendants. Included in that pile are, prosecutors say, “20,000 intercepted audio calls, as well as numerous surreptitious audio and video recordings.” In addition, there are law enforcement reports, search warrants and returns, criminal history documents, recordings, and photographs in total, about 60 GB of material. On top of having to sort through such a huge amount of evidence, many of the co-defendants’ lawyers are also scheduled to handle trials for a number of other criminal cases, some of which overlap with the planned trial start date of May 20, 2025. 👀 via complex
