1 (PROCEEDINGS HELD IN OPEN COURT AT 12:48 PM, ATLANTA, GEORGIA)
2 THE COURT: Back on the record.
3 Ms. Webster, did you have an opportunity to speak
4 with Mr. Foster more about his decision to testify or not
5 testify over the lunch break?
6 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor, we did. Thank you.
7 THE COURT: And what's your understanding of his
8 decision?
9 MS. WEBSTER: I don't believe he's going to testify,
10 Your Honor.
11 THE COURT: All right.
12 Mr. Foster, sir, good afternoon. I just want to ask
13 you some questions about that. And I'm sure that everything
14 I'm about to ask you is the same type of things that
15 Ms. Webster and Ms. Durrett have already gone over with you,
16 but I just need to, for the record, make sure you understand
17 your rights. So that's why I'm asking you these questions.
18 So, first off, do you understand that you have a
19 right to either testify or not testify?
20 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
21 THE COURT: Okay. And do you understand that if you
22 decide not to testify and if you want me to, I'll give an
23 instruction to the jury telling them that they're not to hold
24 that against you?
25 Do you understand that?

1 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
2 THE COURT: All right. And you understand that you
3 have a right under the Fifth Amendment not to testify if you
4 don't want to; correct?
5 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Correct.
6 THE COURT: All right.
7 Counsel, does anyone think any further questions are
8 necessary on this? I guess I need to ask the penultimate
9 question, but other than that?
10 MS. CHAIKEN: No, Your Honor.
11 THE COURT: Okay. And, Mr. Foster, do I understand
12 correctly from your attorney that you've decided that you do
13 not want to testify?
14 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
15 THE COURT: Okay. Ms. Chaiken has indicated she
16 doesn't think any additional questions are necessary.
17 Ms. Webster, do you think any additional questions
18 are necessary?
19 MS. WEBSTER: No, Your Honor.
20 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
21 And do I understand when we bring out the jury you
22 will rest and then it will be Mr. Marshall's case to present?
23 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor.
24 THE COURT: Okay. Mr. Marshall, how many witnesses
25 do you anticipate?

1 MR. MARSHALL: Anticipate one, Judge. We'll still
2 have to have the conversation with my client also, Judge.
3 THE COURT: And is that still Mr. Gaines?
4 MR. MARSHALL: It is. And he's sitting right
5 outside, Judge. He's ready.
6 THE COURT: Off the record for a moment.

10 Sir, as you may be aware, I'm JP Boulee. I'm the
11 judge in this case. Mr. Marshall, on behalf of his client,
12 Ms. Jackson, has elected to call you as a witness in this
13 case. And counsel suggested, and I agreed, that we should
14 make sure that you had counsel to represent you and assist you
15 in your decision about whether or not to testify and what you
16 wanted to testify about.
17 I know that you've now had a chance to consult with
18 Ms. Wiley, who is here via video conference; correct?
19 THE WITNESS: Yes.
20 THE COURT: All right. And although I know that she
21 has probably discussed your rights with you, I just want to
22 make sure that you do indeed understand your rights under the
23 Fifth Amendment, that you understand that you can invoke your
24 right not to incriminate yourself if you want to.
25 Do you understand that?

15 moment, Ms. Webster is going to rest her case and then it'll
16 be Mr. Marshall's case. And he'll formally call you as a
17 witness and we'll re-swear you in in front of the jury and

183
1 A. I can't recall that part.

3 asked you if you had any disagreement with those facts.

5 A. Yes.
6 Q. Do you remember saying that you did not have any
7 disagreements other than one clarification about who was the

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 56 of 198
184
1 THE COURT: I've heard no objection from Ms. Wiley,
2 so go ahead, Ms. Chaiken.
3 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
4 Q. Mr. Gaines, have you had an opportunity to review the
5 transcript from your plea hearing?
6 A. No, not yet.
7 Q. Okay.
8 A. All right.
9 MR. MARSHALL: Your Honor, can I see what the
10 government's having him review?
11 THE COURT: Of course.
12 MR. MARSHALL: Okay. Thanks.
13 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
14 Q. Mr. Gaines, does reviewing the transcript refresh your
15 memory that I said, On June 22nd, 2020, Defendant Gaines
16 caused a wire transfer to be sent from Gaines Reservation to a
17 company called Management Resource Services in the amount of
18 $179,985.72?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. And then I said the purpose of the transfer was listed as
21 payroll services?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. And then I said, In reality, however, Gaines Reservation
24 had no payroll and the purpose of the transfer was not payroll
25 services; correct?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 57 of 198
185
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. And then I said, Instead, the transfer was designed to
3 conceal the location, nature and source of the fraudulently
4 obtained PPP loan proceeds by making them appear to be spent
5 on payroll while sending them to an account controlled by
6 Mr. Gaines's ex-wife, Carla Jackson; correct?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. And then your attorney made a clarification for the
9 record about the fact that Andre Gaines is the person who owns
10 Gaines Reservation & Travel; correct?
11 A. Correct.
12 Q. And then Judge Boulee asked you, Mr. Gaines, with those
13 caveats, do you disagree with anything else that the Assistant
14 US Attorney said?
15 Do you remember that?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. And you said, no, you did not disagree; correct?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. So two weeks ago when you were sitting in this very
20 courthouse under oath what you said was that the money was not
21 actually for payroll; correct?
22 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'm going to object. I
23 think -- if I remember, I think I was asking questions to the
24 witness about the funds going to Management Resource Services
25 and to be used for payroll for Management Resource Services.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 58 of 198
186
1 I thought that was the focus of my question, Judge, not Gaines
2 Reservation & Travel and whether they were using funds for
3 payroll.
4 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, we're talking about the
6 exact same transaction that Mr. Marshall was asking questions
7 about.
8 THE COURT: Overruled.
9 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
10 Q. So, Mr. Gaines, two weeks ago in this courthouse you
11 testified -- you agreed under oath that the purpose of the
12 payment from Gaines Reservation & Travel to Management
13 Resource Services was not actually for any payroll; correct?
14 A. Based on the transcript, yes.
15 Q. And your testimony here to this jury today under oath is
16 that it was?
17 A. The funds were for the purchase of the building and to do
18 construction on the building.
19 Q. So you've changed your testimony in the past two weeks of
20 what the money was for?
21 A. That's what it was all the time.
22 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'm going to object. I don't
23 think that's what the facts have shown, but I'd like to put my
24 objection in, Judge.
25 THE COURT: So, I mean, you've -- I guess you've put

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 59 of 198
187
1 it on the record, but what's the objection?
2 MR. MARSHALL: Just to what he testified to, Judge.
3 I don't think it's inconsistent. I think the questions that I
4 asked were related to whether the funds that were going into
5 Management Resource Services were going to be payroll related.
6 And if him saying if it was, yes, it was going to be used for
7 that, for hiring people and things like that, that's not being
8 untruthful in his sentencing hearing for about how the funds
9 and -- what representations he made about Gaines Reservation &
10 Travel.
11 My questions are focused on what he relayed to
12 Ms. Jackson and what the funds were supposed to be for for
13 MRS, Management Resource Services, Judge. Not Gaines.
14 THE COURT: All right.
15 Ms. Chaiken, I think you've already responded to
16 that, but do you want to say anything else?
17 MS. CHAIKEN: No, Your Honor.
18 THE COURT: All right. Overruled.
19 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
20 Q. Now, Mr. Gaines, you testified a lot about Andre Gaines
21 and what his involvement was in Gaines Reservation & Travel.
22 Do you remember all of that testimony?
23 A. Today?
24 Q. Yes.
25 A. Yes.

1 Q. Now, isn't it true that Andre Gaines had a stroke in
2 2018?
3 A. I don't recall.
4 Q. You don't recall your cousin, that you worked closely
5 with in business, having a stroke?
6 A. No, I don't.
7 Q. Isn't it true that he's been diagnosed as having
8 generalized cerebral dysfunction?
9 A. Yeah, he has medical issues.
10 Q. And then in 2020 he was 67 years old; correct?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. Okay. And he was retired?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. And, in fact, he was permanently disabled at that point
15 in time; correct?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. And he had been retired since 2014; right?
18 A. I don't know. I don't recall. I don't know that.
19 Q. He had bad short-term memory; right?
20 A. I don't know his medical history like that.
21 Q. He was slow to respond when you asked him questions?
22 A. He's always had a stuttering speech impediment.
23 Q. But he was also slow to respond because he had trouble
24 understanding; right?
25 A. I don't know his medical history.

189
1 Q. Did you notice in 2018 that his cognitive function got a
2 lot worse?
3 A. I don't recall. I mean, when we hung out, he spoke well,
4 he moved well, he was capable of functioning daily. So I
5 don't know his medical history.
6 Q. And so you're saying that you and Mr. Gaines, who was
7 then in his late 60s and had been retired for almost six
8 years, all of a sudden decided to do a construction project
9 together in Alabama?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. And now you testified about Mr. Gaines -- I'm sorry --
12 about Andre Gaines having involvement in the PPP loan fraud,
13 do you remember that?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. Do you remember testifying that it was his name on the
16 PPP loan application?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. But it wasn't Andre Gaines who actually signed that PPP
19 loan application; right?
20 A. Based on what -- based on some information I received, it
21 was in all the packets when I was reviewing them. And on the
22 recordings she said he signed it and sent it (sic).
23 Q. And that's because you told him to say that; right?
24 A. No.
25 Q. Because after the FBI called him, you had back-and-forth
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 62 of 198
190
1 phone calls with him the whole day, talking about what to say?
2 A. No. I don't recall.
3 Q. You know personally that Darrell Thomas is the person who
4 signed that PPP loan application; correct?
5 A. I don't know if Darrell even signed it, to be honest with
6 you. I don't know who signed it.
7 Q. Well, Darrell Thomas e-mailed you the signed PPP loan
8 application after it was signed; right?
9 A. I beg your pardon?
10 Q. You use the e-mail address gainesmarty@gmail.com;
11 correct?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. Okay. You use the alias Marty Gaines?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And after the PPP loan application for Gaines
16 Reservation & Travel was signed, Darrell Thomas sent you
17 those documents; correct?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. So you knew that Darrell Thomas was the one who submitted
20 that loan, not Andre Gaines; right?
21 A. I can't speak on Darrell -- what Darrell did. I can't
22 speak on what he did or didn't do. I don't know.
23 Q. And you also don't know whether Andre Gaines did any of
24 that; right?
25 A. Well, based on the recordings, from one of the recordings

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 63 of 198
191
1 I listened to, he said he signed it and sent it. So I don't
2 know how that played out. We got the funds, that's all I
3 know. We ended up receiving the funds.
4 Q. Mr. Gaines, it was you, not Andre Gaines, who was working
5 with Darrell Thomas to prepare the PPP loan application;
6 correct?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. You're the one who sent Darrell Thomas a fake bank
9 statement for Gaines Reservation & Travel?
10 A. I beg your pardon?
11 Q. You sent him a fake bank statement for Gaines Reservation
12 & Travel?
13 A. I don't recall sending any documentation or fake bank
14 statement to Darrell. He requested at one point in time that
15 I get a fake bank statement. And I responded, Marie. And
16 that's it. But I never -- I don't recall sending him any bank
17 statements, me, personally sending him a bank statement.
18 Q. Okay. So your testimony is that you did not prepare
19 fake -- pay someone to prepare fake bank statements for Gaines
20 Reservation & Travel?
21 A. I don't recall. I said I do not recall.
22 Q. Okay. Let me see if we can refresh your memory with
23 that.
24 MS. CHAIKEN: Ms. Holland, could you please pull up
25 Government Exhibit 1408.

17 Okay.
18 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
19 Q. Mr. Gaines, does this refresh your memory that you did
20 get fake bank statements from Marie L. and send them to
21 Darrell Thomas?
22 A. I mean, that's just the text -- e-mail message. I don't
23 recall getting the actual bank statement and sending it to
24 Darrell.
25 Q. Would you like to see the attachment?

2 MS. CHAIKEN: Let's publish 1207A, please.
3 BY MS. CHAIKEN:

7 Reservation & Travel to Darrell Thomas?
8 A. Could you scroll it up, please, so I can see the second
9 page?
10 I don't recall this statement -- me sending this
11 statement from my e-mail.
12 Q. gainesmarty@gmail.com is your e-mail account; correct?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. Okay. And you're telling this jury that this was not you
15 e-mailing this?

17 Q. Okay. Do you have any reason to doubt that you sent this
18 e-mail?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. What's that?
21 A. I just don't recall.
22 Q. Do you have any reason to doubt that someone -- that you
23 used your e-mail account and e-mailed this to Darrell Thomas?
24 A. I don't recall sending this e-mail to -- this particular
25 document to Darrell Thomas. I don't recall. If you have

1 the -- if it came from the e-mail, can I see where it came
2 from my e-mail? I don't recall.
3 MS. CHAIKEN: Yeah. Ms. Holland, could you put 1207
4 side by side with 1207A, please.
5 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
6 Q. So this is the e-mail and then there's -- that's the
7 first attachment. There's two more attachments, which I can
8 show you if you'd like.
9 A. No. Would the e-mail -- wouldn't the e-mail have my name
10 and the document attached to it going to Darrell if I sent it?
11 Q. Yes.
12 On the left, Government Exhibit 1207 is an e-mail from
13 gainesmarty@gmail.com to Darrell Thomas. And there are three
14 attachments.
15 Do you see that the first one says Jan1.pdf?

17 that, though. I really don't.

19 Government Exhibit 1206 side by side with 1206A.
20 BY MS. CHAIKEN:

22 Darrell Thomas attaching a Gaines Reservation & Travel bank
23 statement. Do you remember sending this to Darrell Thomas?

25 may have sent it. I don't recall, that's all I'm saying.

1 Q. Do you remember admitting at your plea hearing that you
2 sent multiple fabricated bank statements to Darrell Thomas?
3 A. I don't recall everything I said.
4 Q. So two weeks ago at your plea hearing you remembered that
5 you sent fabricated bank statements and now you've forgotten?
6 A. I'm just trying to refresh my memory.
7 Q. Okay. Well, so -- did anybody else have access to your
8 e-mail account?
9 A. People hack stuff all the time.
10 Q. So you think somebody hacked your e-mail and e-mailed
11 Darrell Thomas a fake bank statement?
12 A. No disrespect, I just said I don't recall.
13 Q. Do you have any --
14 MR. MARSHALL: The question has been asked and
15 answered several times. He can't recall if he's sending these
16 documents is what he's said.
17 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken.
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I don't think he's really
19 answered it because I've asked him multiple times if he has a
20 basis to dispute he sent it and he keeps just saying, I don't
21 recall.
22 THE COURT: All right. I'm going to sustain the
23 objection. Let's move on, please.
24 MS. CHAIKEN: Okay.

1 Q. Now, Mr. Gaines, you have been using Marie,
2 checkstubsinfo@gmail.com, to make fake documents for you since
3 at least as far back as 2016; correct?
4 A. I don't recall. It's 2024.
5 Q. Would it refresh your recollection to look at some
6 e-mails between you and her?
7 A. Yes.
8 Thank you.
9 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'm going to object to this. I
10 don't see the relevance to this, to the line of questioning
11 that I asked him about his involvement with Gaines
12 Reservation & Travel.
13 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, Mr. Gaines's years long
14 involvement in fabrication of documents is impeachment
15 evidence. It relates to his credibility.
16 THE COURT: Overruled.
17 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
18 Q. Mr. Gaines, does this refresh your recollection that
19 Marie L. has been making documents for you since at least as
20 far back as 2016?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. And she made fake pay stubs for you; right?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. She also made fake titles for you, fake vehicle titles;

197
1 A. I don't recall.
2 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'm going to object. That's
3 not relevant to what we're talking about. We're talking about
4 PPP loan applications and then we're talking -- we're going
5 beyond that into another area, Judge.
6 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, Mr. Gaines's credibility is
7 at issue.
8 THE COURT: Overruled.

23 Thank you.
24 Q. You sent her a letter that you had drafted that was meant
25 to look like it was a letter from a bank saying that you

198
1 had -- that someone had opened an account -- a credit card
2 account in your name without your authorization; correct?
3 A. This is not my name on the documentation.
4 Q. If you look at the third page of what I gave you, that's
5 your name there; correct?
6 A. Oh, yes.
7 Q. And this is a letter that you typed up that's supposedly
8 about somebody opening an account in your name?
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. And then you sent her a real document from a bank and
11 asked her to put your letter onto the bank's letterhead;
12 correct?
13 A. I don't recall that.
14 Q. Okay. If you could look at the first page, does that
15 refresh your recollection that you asked her to please cut and
16 paste the letter you typed --
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. -- to the letterhead?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. You also used Marie L. to create fake police reports;
21 correct?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. And you used her to create fake utility bills; correct?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. And you used her to create fake social security cards;

1 correct?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. And you used her to create fake tax forms; correct?
4 A. Fake what?
5 Q. Tax forms, like W-2s and things like that.
6 A. I don't recall.
7 Thank you.
8 Q. You asked Marie to create documents reflecting fake
9 earnings for you; correct?
10 A. Well, they're not for me, but yes.
11 Q. For other people?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. And you've used Marie to make it look previously like you
14 were actually an employee of Management Resource Services;
15 correct?
16 A. I don't recall that.
17 Q. You asked Marie to take a pay stub and change the
18 employer's name to Management Resource Services and change the
19 name on the pay stubs to Marty Gaines; correct?
20 A. Yes.
21 Q. And you asked her to change the information on the W-2s
22 to match the pay stubs; correct?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. Is it fair to say that you've used her to make so many
25 fake documents over the years that you don't even remember

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 72 of 198
200
1 what you've asked her for?
2 A. Possibly.
3 Q. And in those few years, from 2016 to 2020, any time you
4 needed a document that showed something you didn't have, you
5 just had her make it; right?
6 A. Pretty much, yes.
7 Q. Now, I want to switch gears for a moment and talk about
8 Ms. Jackson.
9 Ms. Jackson's a sophisticated businesswoman, isn't she?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. She's been working for decades in the business world?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. She works on large-scale projects for businesses?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And she's worked for various companies in corporate
16 America?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. And she's managed projects worth millions of dollars?
19 A. I mean, I don't know all that. But I'm assuming, yes.
20 Q. She knows how businesses deal with each other; right?
21 MR. MARSHALL: Excuse me. Can you repeat that
22 question?
23 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
24 Q. She knows how businesses deal with each other?
25 A. I assume, yes.

201
1 Q. Like, she knows, for example, that companies don't make
2 upfront payments of $300,000 for contracts that haven't been
3 signed and deals that haven't been made?
4 A. I don't know what she thinks or how she perceives certain
5 things. I don't know.
6 Q. But she's sophisticated; right?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. She's someone who knows business; right?
9 A. Yes.

14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And she knew your family?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. And she knew your cousin Andre Gaines?
18 A. Vaguely, yes.
19 Q. Yeah. Well, you said you and Andre Gaines worked very
20 closely in business; right?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. And so --
23 A. This particular project, yes.
24 Q. And he's your first cousin; right?

202
1 Q. And she knew him?
2 A. She met him, yes.
3 Q. Now, you and Ms. Jackson separated around November
4 of 2019; is that right?
5 A. I can't recall the date. Somewhere around there.
6 Q. Okay. It was before you got involved in PPP loan fraud;
7 right?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. And you testified that that was because she found out you
10 had been keeping secrets from her?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. And so at that point she didn't trust you anymore, did
13 she?
14 A. I don't know -- I can't speak on how she felt or what she
15 thought.
16 Q. Well, you testified that's what caused her to file for
17 divorce; right?
18 A. My infidelity.
19 Q. And at that point she knew that you had been keeping
20 secrets from her; right?
21 A. I assume that. I don't know. You will have to ask her.
22 Q. Well, you testified that you told her, that she found out
23 that you had been unfaithful; correct?
24 A. I testified what again?
25 Q. That you had told her or that she had found out that you

1 were unfaithful.
2 A. Yeah. She found out, yes.
3 Q. And so at that point she knew that you had been keeping
4 secrets from her because you did not previously tell her you
5 had been unfaithful; correct?
6 A. Yes. Yes.
7 Q. Now, you testified that you went to Montgomery, Alabama,
8 to look at some real estate; correct?
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. And those were the photographs we looked at?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. And those are just photographs of you alone in
13 Montgomery, Alabama; correct?
14 A. No. I wasn't alone. Someone had to take the picture.
15 Q. And what I understood you to be saying is that you were
16 so intoxicated on this business trip that you don't even
17 remember who you were with?
18 A. I said a couple drinks and that was several years ago. I
19 said I don't recall.
20 Q. You don't remember who you were with on a business trip
21 to scout properties?
22 A. Not that particular time, no.
23 Q. And you don't remember when that trip was?

7 Justice Memorial Center?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. Did you go into the museum on your trip?

11 the Midwest and, you know, you seen a lot of stuff growing up
12 as a kid about history in the south and I was -- I happened to
13 be there, so I just wanted to see it for myself.
14 Q. But you don't remember if you actually went and saw it?
15 A. I don't know if it was open or not.
16 Q. Now, you have some pictures of a building that has the
17 number 2307 on it; right? Those were the pictures we looked
18 at?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. What was the address of that building where you were

12 call if you was interested in the building.
13 Q. That's not in any of your photos, is it?
14 A. I can't recall. You can pull them back up again and I'll
15 look at them again.
16 MS. CHAIKEN: Could we pull up 20, please -- sorry,
17 J20.
18 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
19 Q. So Defense Exhibit J20, there's no for sale sign in this
20 picture, right, or anything about calling for information?
21 A. Yeah, I don't see it.
22 MS. CHAIKEN: Exhibit J21, please.

1 Q. And 27 -- 2307 North Panama, that's not an address that
2 exists; right?
3 A. I beg your pardon?
4 Q. 2307 North Panama is not an address that exists; right?
5 A. That's the area where the building was.
6 Q. Okay. But this is not the street that the building is
7 the address of; right?
8 A. Are you going to show me the rest of the photos?
9 Q. Okay. Well, I'm just asking you to confirm that it's not
10 2307 North Panama because that address does not exist.
11 A. I can't recall.
12 MS. CHAIKEN: If you could go to J22, please.
13 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
14 Q. There's no for sale sign in this picture; correct?
15 A. Yes. Right on the other side of the tree there's a big
16 board. Right where the tree is in front of the building
17 there's a board right there on the window that says call.
18 You can see the white board right -- just beyond the tree.
19 There's a board right there that says if you're interested in
20 this property, call.
21 Q. Where are you looking?
22 A. See where the tree is in front of the building where the
23 L is?
24 Q. Yes.

207
1 below it where the limb is, down -- right there. There's a
2 white board right there with a number for you to call.
3 Q. Okay. You didn't take a picture of that sign, did you?
4 A. I don't recall. You got my text messages and all that,
5 pictures and stuff; right? I'm just asking a question.
6 Q. Mr. Gaines, have you given all of your text messages that
7 you have related to this transaction?
8 A. I'm not trying to be rude or disrespectful. I'm just
9 saying if you already have all my text messages and
10 everything, that should be in there because I did take a
11 picture of it.
12 Q. Mr. Gaines, Mr. Marshall showed you one text message that
13 you provided.
14 A. Well, I mean, there is a sign there that says call this
15 number if you're interested in the property. And that's what
16 I did.
17 Q. Do you have any communications that you had with a real
18 estate agent about purchasing this property?
19 A. It was actually privately owned.
20 Q. Do you have any communications with anybody that you
21 talked to about buying the property?
22 A. Not at this time, no.
23 Q. Do you have any text messages between you and the private
24 owner or any communications between you and the private owner?
25 A. Not to be disrespectful, I mean, you guys have all the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 80 of 198
208
1 information. I don't have it. I mean, I'm sure if you go
2 through the text messages or whatever, there should be
3 something there somewhere.
4 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, if there's information,
5 we've not been provided it, so I would --
6 THE WITNESS: No. You said there wasn't any
7 information saying where the property was, and it's right
8 there on the window.
9 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
10 Q. Mr. Gaines, I'm asking you if you have any communications
11 with the owner of this property about buying it.
12 A. At the time when I called them, yes. After I took the
13 information off the board, yes.
14 Q. Okay. And you don't have those here with you, do you?
15 A. No.
16 Q. Do you have any communications with a bank or a mortgage
17 company about getting a loan to buy the property?
18 A. Why do I need that when we got the PPP money? I didn't
19 need a loan from a bank.
20 Q. Well, you testified that you went on this visit right at
21 the beginning of the pandemic; right?
22 A. I said just after the pandemic, just before we got the
23 PPP loan money.
24 Q. Right. So at that time you didn't know that you were
25 going to get a PPP loan, did you?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 81 of 198
209
1 A. That's not what I stated. I said looked at the building
2 several times, just before we got the PPP money. When the PPP
3 money came in, we went back over, looked at it a few more
4 times, talked to the guy who was selling the building, and
5 then everything went crazy.
6 Q. And you don't have any messages that you exchanged with
7 Andre Gaines about this project you were going to do?
8 A. If there are, they're in my text messages. And I'm sure
9 you guys have all that information, that's what I'm saying.
10 When you gathered all this information about all the documents
11 I had doctored up, you should have all my text messages and
12 pictures as well.
13 Q. Mr. Gaines, have you made all of your text messages
14 available to anyone in this case?
15 A. I didn't make any of this available. You guys presented
16 it to me.
17 Q. Right. You keep saying that we have your messages.
18 A. I mean, if you -- all I'm saying -- I'm not trying to be
19 disrespectful --
20 MR. MARSHALL: Your Honor, I'm going to object at
21 this point. He was not under a duty when he was a defendant
22 in this case to turn over all of his stuff. They had every
23 opportunity to subpoena records, get court orders, get search
24 warrants and everything.
25 THE COURT: What's your objection, Mr. Marshall? I
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 82 of 198
210
1 mean, you've made a statement about your position on
2 something, but I'm not sure I heard an objection.
3 MR. MARSHALL: Asked and answered. It's the same
4 question going back and forth about these communications.
5 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken?
6 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I'm allowed to elicit
7 testimony that he doesn't have anything to corroborate the
8 testimony he's now giving.
9 MR. MARSHALL: He answered he doesn't have a copy of
10 the real estate transaction. And he's answered several
11 questions along those lines. And he kept saying, if there's
12 anything, you should have it, you have all my e-mails, you
13 have everything.
14 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken, anything else in response?
15 MS. CHAIKEN: No, Your Honor.
16 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken, how much more do you have on
17 this?
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Not a lot, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: All right. I'll give you a little
20 leeway. I'm not sure he's answered your question, but I think
21 Mr. Marshall's objection may be well taken if you go on too
22 much further down this line.
23 MS. CHAIKEN: Ms. Holland, could you please pull up
24 Government Exhibit 13 -- I'm sorry -- Jackson Exhibit 13.

211
1 Q. Mr. Gaines, do you remember Mr. Marshall showed you this
2 text message?
3 A. Yes.
4 Q. Okay. Is this the only text message that you provided
5 related to any of this having to do with the project and the
6 payments to Management Resource Services?
7 A. Maybe it's me, maybe I just don't understand what's going
8 on because like I said before, I didn't provide anything. You
9 guys obtained this information and now you've presented it to
10 me, about some of the things that I've done in the past. So,
11 therefore, I mean, I don't know. You picked and choosed which
12 ones you wanted to bring. I don't know.
13 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I'm going to move to strike
14 that as non-responsive.
15 THE COURT: All right. One moment.
16 I'm going to deny the motion to strike.
17 We've been going a good while. Ms. Chaiken, are you
18 close to the end of your cross or how much more do you have?
19 MS. CHAIKEN: It would probably be a good time for a
20 break.
21 THE COURT: Okay.
22 Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we will go ahead
23 and take a ten-minute break. Thank you.
24 (The jury exited the courtroom.)

1 continued at 3:00 p.m. as follows:)
2 THE COURT: I understand we have an issue,
3 Mr. Gaines. Do you need to speak with your attorney? Is that
4 right?
5 THE WITNESS: Yes.
6 THE COURT: Okay. You know, as we discussed, we can
7 break to let him do that. So we will break and let you have
8 that conversation separately with your attorney. And then
9 we'll go back on the record and bring out the jury, okay?
10 MR. MARSHALL: I guess, for the record, I'm going to
11 let Mr. Gaines use my phone, I guess.
12 THE COURT: That's fine.
13 We're off the record.
14 (Off-the-record discussion.)
15 (After a recess at 3:01 p.m., the proceedings
16 continued at 3:07 p.m. as follows:)
17 (The jury entered the courtroom.)
18 THE COURT: Y'all can be seated. Thank you.
19 And, Ms. Chaiken, you can continue with your
20 questioning.

1 correct?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. You recognize it from the time that you were with her?
4 A. More or less, yes.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: If you could go back to the check,
6 please, Ms. Holland.
7 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
8 Q. Now, when Ms. Jackson got this check from you, she didn't
9 ask you why can't you keep this money in your own account
10 until the project is further underway; right?
11 A. She could have but she -- that never came up.
12 Q. She didn't ask you, why are you transferring this to me
13 now if we don't even own the building in Montgomery, Alabama,
14 yet; right?
15 A. Could you ask me that again now.
16 Q. Well, she didn't ask you why the payment was coming now
17 even though you didn't even own the building yet; right?
18 A. Oh. What happened -- what actually happened when we
19 started moving the money over to MRS was Darrell Thomas had
20 called me and told me to tell -- he said that the PPP people
21 were pulling the money back, taking money back from people.
22 And so we decided to move it before they took it back.
23 Q. So you wanted to get it out of the Gaines Reservation &
24 Travel account to hide it; right?
25 A. Well, move it to MRS, move it before they took it back,
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 87 of 198
215
1 yes.
2 Q. But Ms. Jackson didn't ask you, you know, why are you
3 moving it now, we don't even have a project yet; right?
4 A. I didn't really -- like I said before when we talked
5 about the project, I didn't really go into detail a whole lot
6 about what was going to happen with that building at that
7 time, no. So he just told us we needed to move the money.
8 And we didn't want them to take it back, so we moved it.
9 Q. At this time in June 8th of 2020, Ms. Jackson was not
10 doing any consulting for Gaines Reservation & Travel; correct?
11 A. No.
12 Q. And she was not doing any daily business management;
13 correct?
14 A. I don't know.
15 Q. Not that you're aware of; correct?
16 A. Not that I'm aware of, yeah.
17 Q. And when you handed her this check for $155,000, she
18 didn't say, why does it say it's for consulting fees or daily
19 business management, I'm not doing that, did she?
20 A. I don't recall.
21 Q. Now, she also didn't ask you how you got $155,000 in the
22 middle of a global pandemic, did she?
23 A. I don't recall.
24 Q. And at this point in time in June of 2020, the economy
25 was basically ground to a halt; right?

1 A. I don't think -- Georgia didn't shut down, though, did
2 we?
3 Q. Businesses were closed; right?
4 A. I can't recall.
5 Q. I mean, that was the whole point of the Paycheck
6 Protection Program, right, was that businesses were losing

9 Q. And all of a sudden you showed up to Ms. Jackson with a
10 $155,000 check; right?
11 A. Yes.

1 Q. And you had told her the first check should be to USAA;
2 correct?
3 A. I don't remember the order, but yes.
4 Q. Well, the first one that you texted was USAA; correct?
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. And so she knew that that was money that was going to go
7 to USAA; correct?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. Not to Montgomery, Alabama, or anything having to do with
10 the real estate project?

2 Q. Was that for the driveway renovation that Ms. Jackson did
3 in July of 2020?
4 A. I don't recall.
5 Q. She did get her driveway renovated in July of 2020;
6 correct?
7 A. Yes. Yes.
8 Q. Now, there's no response from Ms. Jackson to these text
9 messages; correct, on June 18th? The next message is a
10 message from you on June 19th; correct?
11 A. Right. Yeah. That's what I'm trying -- I'm trying to
12 understand the question, I mean, of her responding back.
13 Q. Okay. So Ms. Jackson did not respond to your text
14 message and say, wait, hold on, I thought this was for payroll
15 for a project in Alabama, why are you asking me to write
16 checks to USAA and Capital One; right?
17 A. I just asked her to write the checks and pull the money
18 out and that was it. She didn't respond. But I ended up
19 getting the checks to the places they need to be.
20 Q. And she didn't ask you any questions about why, if this
21 money was supposedly for payroll, you -- she needed to write
22 checks to banks; right?
23 A. No.
24 Q. She didn't say, why can't you use your own money in your
25 own bank accounts to pay off these auto loans or whatever

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 91 of 198
219
1 you're paying off at these banks; correct?
2 A. You said she -- did she ask me that?
3 Q. She did not; correct?
4 A. No. No, she didn't ask.
5 Q. And then on June 19th you asked her for the account
6 number and wiring information for Management Resource
7 Services; correct?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. And that's because you were getting ready to do another
10 wire?
11 A. Yeah.
12 Q. You were getting ready to do a wire?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. Okay. And she just asked you for which account; correct?
15 A. I don't recall.
16 Q. Well, if you just look down at the bottom of the
17 messages, she said, Ah, good morning --
18 A. Okay.
19 Q. -- for which account; right?
20 A. Yes, I guess that's what that means, yeah.
21 Q. She didn't say, what are you wiring me, you know, why are
22 you sending me more money; right?
23 A. No.
24 Q. And she didn't say, oh, well, you sent me one check and
25 it was for payroll, but then you had me pay off your auto

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 92 of 198
220
1 loans, so I don't want you to send me more money; right?
2 A. No.
3 Q. By the time you sent her that wire, at that point she
4 already knew that what the money was being used for was to pay
5 off your auto loans; right?
6 A. I don't know what she knew. I just know that she did the
7 checks that I needed to get done and sent me the information
8 to get the wires sent over.
9 Q. You didn't hide from her what these checks were for;
10 correct? You told her that they were for USAA and Capital
11 one; correct?
12 A. Yes.
13 MS. CHAIKEN: If you could go to 1125, please,
14 Government Exhibit 1125.
15 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
16 Q. This is the wire transfer confirmation from Gaines
17 Reservation & Travel to Management Resource Services; correct?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. And Mr. Andre Gaines's name is on this wire transfer;
20 correct?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. But you went with him to the bank to do this wire
23 transfer; correct?
24 A. No. I think he had to make an appointment. He had to
25 make an appointment. And he was all the way out in like
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 93 of 198
221
1 Dallas, Georgia, somewhere and he said he could handle it.
2 Q. And you went with him; correct?
3 A. No, I didn't go with him when he made the actual
4 transfer.
5 Q. You gave him the routing information and the account
6 information for Management Resource Services?
7 A. I think I did.
8 Q. You told him what the amount should be of the payment?
9 A. I believe so.
10 Q. And you told him what to write as the purpose of the
11 transfer?
12 A. I don't recall that, but I know I told him to wire the
13 money and gave him the information.
14 Q. And just so the timing is clear, at this point in time
15 when the wire transfer was sent, Ms. Jackson had already
16 purchased those cashier's checks to pay off your loans;
17 correct?
18 A. Yeah. She wrote the checks to USAA and Capital One and
19 365.
20 Q. And when she got this wire transfer, your testimony is
21 she didn't ask you, wow, where did you get another $179,000 in
22 the middle of a global pandemic?
23 A. No. She knew it was coming from Gaines Reservation &
24 Travel.
25 Q. Before the PPP loan Gaines Reservation & Travel had zero

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 94 of 198

1 business; correct?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. Nothing?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. No money ever; right?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. Okay. Yes, no money ever?
8 A. I mean, it had just enough to keep the account open, I
9 guess.
10 Q. Right. 100 bucks in the account?
11 A. No, I think the business account you had to have at least
12 1,500 bucks in there.
13 Q. Okay. So if we looked at the business account, would we
14 see what the activity was in there?
15 A. I believe so.
16 Q. The Chase account for Gaines Reservation & Travel?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. And so Gaines Reservation had never before ever had more
19 than $1,500; correct?
20 A. Yes. Since the account had actually opened, yes.
21 Q. And so she just thought all of a sudden Gaines
22 Reservation & Travel, in the middle of a pandemic, came into
23 $335,000 that it was sending to her, that's your testimony?
24 A. Money was coming from Gaines Travel & Reservation (sic),
25 but she didn't know how we obtained the money.

223
1 Q. And she never asked you how you obtained all that money?
2 A. No.
3 Q. Now, Agent Stites interviewed both you -- I'm sorry --
4 both Ms. Jackson and Andre Gaines in early July of 2020;
5 correct?
6 A. Yeah, I'm assuming so. Yes.
7 Q. Well, you know he did because they called you and told
8 you afterwards; correct?
9 A. I think initially when they showed up, I was there.
10 Q. You were at Ms. Jackson's house; correct?
11 A. Yes. Yes.
12 Q. And when Agent Stites called Andre Gaines, you had

2 Q. And in one of those text messages Agent Stites wrote to
3 you, Mr. Gaines, you are connected to a significant money
4 trail from this and other loans involved in our investigation
5 to include your connection to Darrell Thomas. Your
6 cooperation in this investigation can benefit you, Andre and

19 A. Yes.
20 Q. And then later that day you said, This cracker is
21 desperate; correct?

2 without an attorney representing me?

4 today when he texted you and told you that you were connected
5 to a significant money trail and your cooperation could help

11 idea that you got a PPP loan for Gaines Reservation & Travel;

1 this fake document?
2 A. No.
3 Q. Let's go to the one that says changing the address on a
4 driver's license and expiration date. See if you can find
5 that document up there.
6 Well, let's make this quicker. All of the documents that

12 paraphrasing it right, is it unusual for -- unusual for a
13 professional businesswoman with her background to get money
14 before a project is even, I guess, in place. I think that's
15 essentially what she asked.
16 A. Yes.

1 Q. Right. And that's before they've done any work; right?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. So there are types of business entities where people pay
4 money upfront before the work is all completed; right?
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. And it may be pursuant to a contract or some type of
7 agreement that's written up; right?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. Let's go back to some of the initial questions that
10 Ms. Chaiken had for you on -- whether you're being truthful

12 hearing and the factual background.
13 Do you remember those initial questions?
14 A. No, I don't.
15 Q. Do you remember the questions Ms. Chaiken was asking you
16 about the answers and responses you gave during your change
17 of plea hearing about a week or so ago --
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. -- two weeks ago? Okay. All right.
20 On the questions related to payroll, when I was asking
21 you questions about payroll, was I asking you questions about
22 payroll related to Management Resource Services or was it
23 whether Gaines & Travel (sic) had payroll all established? Do
24 you recall?
25 A. I think it was MRS you was asking me about.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 111 of 198
239
1 Q. Okay. All right. Was the plan to have Management
2 Resource Services set up this program for this project in
3 Alabama and have payroll administered through Management
4 Resource Services?
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. So in that respect you weren't being untruthful about
7 anything related to your plea hearing, were you?
8 A. No. Just some of the stuff, I just didn't understand
9 what she was asking me at the time.
10 Q. Okay. Okay. All right.
11 I want to ask you, follow up with you a little bit. The
12 prosecutor asked you some questions about Andre and about
13 whether Ms. Jackson knew him. And you said vaguely. Flesh
14 that out a little bit for the jury.
15 She met him. Am I correct to say that -- in thinking
16 that they really didn't hang around or know -- and, you know,
17 stuff like that?
18 A. No. He stayed in Dallas, Georgia. And if he came out my
19 way, we were in Tucker, that's a nice haul. He would usually
20 be riding with me. He would come by the house in Marietta,
21 we'd get together, go get something to eat, then hang out a
22 little bit.
23 Q. Okay. Mr. Gaines, I'm going to see if I can refresh your
24 recollection. There were some questions asked of you about
25 whether you knew where this property was in Alabama and so

1 forth. Do you remember that?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. I pulled up something on Zillow, and I want to see if
4 this happens to refresh your recollection a little bit.
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. Does this property on Zillow refresh your recollection
7 of maybe where the location of this particular building was?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. And what is that address?
10 A. 2306 State (sic) Charles Street -- State (sic) Charles
11 Avenue.
12 Q. Is that St. Charles, S-T?
13 A. Yes. Yes. Montgomery, Alabama.
14 Q. Does this refresh your recollection maybe in the area
15 where this particular building was?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. Was this the location where you said you saw a call this
18 number placard on the window?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. Let me understand. So the prosecutor asked you some
21 questions about why Ms. Jackson would -- you know, I guess why
22 wouldn't Gaines & Travel keep this money and why have it come
23 over to Management Resource Services. Do you know why you did
24 it that way? What did you testify to earlier?
25 A. No. Like I said, Darrell had called me and told me to

1 let my cousin know, Andre, that they were taking the money
2 back.
3 Q. Okay. So --
4 A. Reversing the wire. So we decided -- I decided that we
5 need to -- we both decided we need to move it.
6 Q. Any of that conversation, did you tell that to Carla
7 Jackson? Did she know any of that?
8 A. No.
9 Q. So what was -- what did you tell Ms. Jackson, what was
10 her understanding of why she was getting this money, these two
11 big deposits in her account, where they came from? Did she
12 know where the -- I mean, like, if it wasn't a PPP loan, where
13 was the money coming from?
14 A. No. She didn't ask and I didn't tell.
15 Q. Do you know anything more about Darrell Thomas's
16 background, like what jobs he's had in the past?
17 A. No.
18 Q. Had he ever worked in banking?
19 A. Yeah. He told me he did something with hedge funds or
20 something like that supposedly. That's what I was told.
21 Q. Do you know if Darrell Thomas had ever suggested that,
22 like, some kind of financing, that he had secured financing in
23 some way for this project?
24 A. I can't recall.
25 Q. So you don't really remember what you told Carla Jackson

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 114 of 198
242
1 about where the -- where are you getting this money?
2 A. I didn't say anything about where I was getting the money
3 from. I just asked her can we move it. And she said yeah.
4 And that was it.
5 Q. Well, I just asked you a question, did she know that
6 Darrell Thomas and you were trying to move money. You said
7 no.
8 A. Right.
9 Q. Okay. So did she know or not know?
10 A. No. No. She didn't know the money was coming from a PPP
11 loan, no.
12 Q. Did you tell her that Darrell Thomas was telling you to
13 move money and things like this?
14 A. No.
15 Q. I think the prosecutor asked you a question or two about
16 your interview when Agent Stites, I guess, called you. Was it
17 a phone call with him or did he come to visit you in person,
18 do you recall?
19 A. He talked to me on the phone. He went by the house, but
20 I wasn't there.
21 Q. Right. I think there was something, you didn't tell
22 Agent Stites that you were connected to this real estate
23 project. Was that the question that was asked of you?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. Well, you had a very short conversation with Agent

1 Stites; right? It wasn't very long.
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. Right? Was that -- did he ask a question about that?
4 A. No.
5 Q. Did you have any other follow-up meetings or interviews
6 with Agent Stites?
7 A. Other than text messages, no.
8 Q. Did he ever try to reach out to your attorney to talk to
9 you about any information related to the -- to this real
10 estate project?
11 A. Not that I recall. No, not that I recall.
12 Q. Okay.
13 MR. MARSHALL: Just one minute, Your Honor.
14 Nothing further, Judge. Thank you.
15 RECROSS-EXAMINATION
16 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
17 Q. Mr. Gaines, do you remember Mr. Marshall just showed you
18 a computer with an address on St. Charles Avenue?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. And he had said that that was a Zillow page, but it
21 wasn't a Zillow page; right? It was a Google page?
22 A. Yeah. Yeah.
23 Q. So it wasn't like a Zillow real estate listing of that
24 property being for sale; correct?
25 A. I have no idea.

244
1 Q. Just a picture of a building that he pulled up on Google?
2 A. No. No. No. The picture he just showed me, I don't
3 know where he got it from that he just pulled up, but the
4 picture that you showed me earlier, that's the actual property
5 where I had gone to look at the property, real estate.
6 Q. The pictures that were admitted into evidence that we
7 looked at on the screen?
8 A. Right.
9 Q. I just want to be clear about what happened at your plea
10 hearing, Mr. Gaines. Do you still have that plea transcript
11 in front of you?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. If you could turn to page 17, please.
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. The statements that I made were specific to the wire
16 transfer from Gaines Reservation & Travel to Management
17 Resource Services; correct?
18 A. Am I supposed to be finding this on this page 17
19 somewhere?
20 Q. Yes. At the bottom of page 17 I said: On June 22nd,
21 2020, Defendant Gaines caused a wire transfer to be sent from
22 Gaines Reservation to a company called Management Resource
23 Services in the amount of $179,985.72; correct?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. And then I said: The purpose of the transfer was listed

245
1 as payroll services; right?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. And then I said: In reality, however, Gaines Reservation
4 had no payroll and the purpose of the transfer was not payroll
5 services; correct?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. Okay. And you agreed to that; correct?
8 A. During the plea hearing?
9 Q. Yes.
10 A. Yes. Yes.
11 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I would move to admit
12 Government Exhibits 1220, 1225 and 1227, and the sub exhibits
13 to those pursuant to Rule 902.11.
14 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'd object. They're not
15 relevant still. That's my objection.
16 THE COURT: All right. Can you pass those up or are
17 these on the disk or the jump drive?
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Should be on the jump drive.
19 THE COURT: 1220, 1225 and 1227?
20 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
21 THE COURT: But not the sub exhibits to those?
22 MS. CHAIKEN: With the sub exhibits, Your Honor.
23 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken, what's your response to the
24 relevance objection?
25 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, this is in response to the

1 line of questioning about whether the PPP application from
2 Management Resource Services was intended to be a real
3 application. These applications for other businesses show
4 that they all follow the exact same pattern where the business
5 information was filled out, no employee and payroll
6 information, and then were being submitted to Darrell Thomas,
7 who is the same person who processed the fraudulent Gaines
8 Reservation & Travel application.
9 THE COURT: Mr. Marshall, anything else?
10 MR. MARSHALL: No, Your Honor.
11 THE COURT: Overruled. They're admitted.
12 MS. CHAIKEN: Thank you.
13 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
14 Q. Mr. Gaines, you sent PPP applications for various
15 businesses to Darrell Thomas; correct?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. And those were for businesses that did not have any
18 employees; correct?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. And you wanted Darrell Thomas to create fraudulent PPP
21 applications for those businesses, just like he was doing with
22 Gaines Reservation & Travel; correct?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. And you knew that that's what Darrell Thomas was doing
25 during this time period; correct?

1 A. Yes. I figured it out, yes.
2 Q. You figured out that he was preparing fraudulent loan
3 applications; correct?
4 A. Yes.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: If you could go to 1227, please.
6 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
7 Q. This was an e-mail that you sent to Darrell Thomas on
8 May 26th of 2020; correct?
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. And it was for a company called Main Street Events?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. And you had the name Marvin Hollman associated with it,
13 but then you said here's my other company; correct?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And Marvin Hollman is another alias that you use; right?
16 A. No. No.
17 Q. It's a name you've had Marie create documents for before;
18 correct?
19 A. Yeah. There is a Marvin Hollman.
20 MS. CHAIKEN: And if you could go to 1227A, please.
21 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
22 Q. This was the attachment; correct?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. So you sent Darrell Thomas a PPP application for Main
25 Street Events?

1 A. Yes.
2 Q. And it left the average monthly payroll, the number of
3 employees blank?
4 A. Yes.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: If you could publish 1225, please.
6 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
7 Q. This is a PPP application that you sent to Darrell Thomas
8 for a business called DUI School; correct?
9 A. Yes.
10 MS. CHAIKEN: And if you could go to 1225A, please.
11 BY MS. CHAIKEN:

13 A. Yes.
14 Q. You sent him a PPP application for Driving Under
15 Intelligence, DUI?
16 A. Yes. Yes.
17 Q. And, again, the average monthly payroll and the number of
18 employees was blank?
19 A. Yes.
20 MS. CHAIKEN: And if you could go to 1220, please.

22 Q. This was for 365 Enterprises, the business we've talked
23 about; correct?

2 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
3 Q. This was the PPP application; correct?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. And the PPP application you sent him was blank for
6 average monthly payroll and number of employees?
7 A. Yes.
8 MS. CHAIKEN: If we could go back to 1228A, please.
9 BY MS. CHAIKEN:
10 Q. This was the PPP application for Management Resource
11 Services; correct?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. And, again, the average monthly payroll and the number of
14 employees was blank?
15 A. Yes.
16 Q. And that was the same thing that you had been sending to
17 Darrell Thomas for other businesses; correct?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. And you knew that Management Resource Services didn't
20 have any employees; correct?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. And I think Mr. Marshall asked you if you cc'd Carla
23 Jackson on your e-mail to Darrell Thomas. Do you remember
24 that?
25 A. Yes.

1 Q. But you didn't conceal from Carla Jackson that there was
2 a PPP borrower application form for Management Resource
3 Services because she herself filled this out; correct?
4 A. Yes.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: Nothing further. Thank you.
6 MR. MARSHALL: Ms. Chaiken, can I see the transcript
7 you were looking at, page 17, please. Thank you.
8 FURTHER REDIRECT EXAMINATION
9 BY MR. MARSHALL:
10 Q. Mr. Gaines, if you can review page 17 and 18 on your plea
11 transcript. Do you still have that up there in front of you?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. Is it highlighted for you as well?
14 A. No, it's not.
15 Q. It's not? Okay.
16 So the bottom paragraph, starting on line 22. Read that
17 paragraph and go into the next page and go through page 7
18 on -- excuse me, line 7 on page 18.
19 A. It says, For example, on June 22nd, 2020, Defendant
20 Gaines caused a wire transfer to be sent from Gaines
21 Reservation to a company called Management Resource in the
22 amount of $179,985.72. The purpose of the transfer was listed
23 as payroll services. In reality, however, Gaines Reservation
24 had no payroll and the purpose of the transfer was not payroll
25 services. Instead the transfer was designed to conceal the

251
1 location, nature and source of the fraudulent obtained PPP
2 loan proceeds by making them appear to be spent on payroll,
3 while sending them to an account controlled by Mr. Gaines's
4 ex-wife, Carla Jackson.
5 Q. Now, again, this is you and Darrell Thomas at the center
6 of this; is that correct?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. Right?
9 So all of the -- the statement in your plea transcript in
10 here, that's a true statement that you made there, right, in
11 your plea proceeding?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. Or the factual basis that's laid down there for you;
14 correct?
15 A. Yes.
16 Q. So none of this -- none of this addresses Carla Jackson
17 knowing anything about the nature of the funds that are coming
18 into Management Resource Services and payroll and their
19 purposes for payroll; right?
20 A. Yes.
21 Q. Is this separate, a whole separate thing?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. Okay. All right.
24 On that PPP loan application for Management Resource
25 Services that was shown, that exhibit, was there a point in

1 time when Ms. Jackson asked you not to submit that
2 application?
3 A. I don't recall.
4 Q. Okay. All right.
5 MR. MARSHALL: That's all I have. Thank you, Judge.
6 Thank you, Mr. Gaines.
7 THE COURT: Anything else, Ms. Chaiken? Or anything,
8 Ms. Webster?
9 MS. CHAIKEN: No, Your Honor.
10 MS. WEBSTER: No, Your Honor.
11 THE COURT: All right.
12 Sir, you can step down. Thank you.
13 (Witness excused.)
14 THE COURT: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I need
15 to discuss a couple things with counsel and so I think this is
16 a good time for you to take a comfort break. I'm going to
17 discuss some things with counsel and then give counsel and
18 staff a break as well, so this could be a -- instead of a
19 ten-minute-er it might be more like a 20-minute-er or so,
20 okay? Thank you.
21 (The jury exited the courtroom at 4:01 p.m.)
22 THE COURT: Y'all can be seated.
23 MS. WILEY: Excuse me, Your Honor. May I be excused?
24 THE COURT: You may, Ms. Wiley. Thank you. And we
25 all hope that you feel better.

253
1 MS. WILEY: Thank you.
2 THE COURT: All right. Take care.
3 Mr. Marshall, do you have any more witnesses?
4 MR. MARSHALL: No more witnesses, Judge.
5 THE COURT: Do I take it from that that Ms. Jackson
6 has decided not to testify after consultation with you about
7 that decision?
8 MR. MARSHALL: That's correct.
9 THE COURT: Ms. Jackson, I want to ask you some of
10 the same questions I asked Mr. Foster earlier. I know that
11 you've already communicated with your counsel about that
12 issue, but I just want to make it clear for the record.
13 First off, you understand that you have a Fifth
14 Amendment right against self-incrimination; correct?
15 DEFENDANT JACKSON: Yes.
16 THE COURT: And you understand that here when you're
17 on trial, you either get to testify if you want to or you get
18 to not testify if you want to? Do you understand that?
19 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
20 THE COURT: And do you understand that that's your
21 decision?
22 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
23 THE COURT: And do you understand that if you choose
24 not to testify, I will give an instruction that the jury may
25 not consider the fact that you haven't testified in their

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 126 of 198
254
1 deliberations? Do you understand that?
2 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
3 THE COURT: And you've discussed this decision with
4 your attorney. Do I understand that correctly?
5 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes. Yes.
6 THE COURT: And is it your decision, having discussed
7 that with him and having understood your rights, that you've
8 decided not to testify?
9 DEFENDANT FOSTER: Yes.
10 THE COURT: All right. Thank you very much.
11 All right. What we'll do is we'll go back on the
12 record and I'll let you rest, Mr. Marshall.
13 But let me ask the government if they anticipate
14 whether or not there will be any rebuttal case?
15 MS. CHAIKEN: A very brief one, Your Honor. Like
16 five minutes, less than five minutes.
17 THE COURT: Will that be on the subject of the
18 government's motion to admit evidence of the co-defendants'
19 guilty pleas or will it be on something else?
20 MS. CHAIKEN: No. Your Honor, after considering the
21 totality of Mr. Foster's case, we're not proceeding on the
22 grounds we articulated in our motion.
23 However, one of the areas that we do intend to get
24 into on rebuttal is just to establish that Gena Pyfrom-Foster
25 is one of the individuals who was charged, not pleaded guilty
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 127 of 198
255
1 but charged, because we do believe that a misimpression may
2 have been created with the jury that she has escaped any
3 culpability for her conduct by virtue of questions as to the
4 number of people charged, then going through some, but not
5 all, of who those people were, and then presenting a
6 significant amount of evidence in the defense case about Gena
7 Pyfrom-Foster and her involvement. So we just want to clear
8 that up on rebuttal.
9 THE COURT: All right. Very well.
10 MR. MARSHALL: Judge?
11 THE COURT: Yes.
12 MR. MARSHALL: Just -- as far as timing, I guess when
13 we formally rest our case, I'm going to renew our Rule 29
14 motion again.
15 THE COURT: I understand. I'll ask, I guess,
16 after -- you can renew it then or you can renew it after the
17 government gives its rebuttal case.
18 MR. MARSHALL: That's fine, Judge.
19 THE COURT: All right. Let's all go ahead and take
20 our own comfort break, then we'll come back and I'll let
21 Mr. Marshall formally rest. And then we'll hear the
22 government's rebuttal case, all right?
23 MS. CHAIKEN: Thank you.
24 (After a recess AT 4:06 p.m., the proceedings

6 Mr. Marshall?
7 MR. MARSHALL: Your Honor, the defense rests.
8 THE COURT: All right. Thank you, Mr. Marshall.
9 Ms. Chaiken, anything in rebuttal?
10 MS. CHAIKEN: Very briefly, Your Honor.
11 The United States calls Special Agent Stites to the

13 THE COURT: Very well.
14 He's been previously sworn, so I think we're okay.

23 for you today.
24 Do you recall being asked questions about how many people
25 were charged in connection with your investigation?

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 129 of 198
257
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. Do you recall Ms. Webster identifying who some of those
3 people were?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. Were the people that she listed all of the people that
6 have been charged in connection with this case?
7 A. No.
8 Q. Tell me whether Gena Pyfrom-Foster has been charged with
9 PPP fraud in connection with this investigation.
10 A. Yes, she has.
11 MS. CHAIKEN: Nothing further, Your Honor.

21 MS. WEBSTER: Thank you.

1 MS. CHAIKEN: That concludes our rebuttal case, Your
2 Honor.
3 THE COURT: All right. Ms. Webster, Mr. Marshall,
4 any rebuttal to the rebuttal?
5 MS. WEBSTER: No rebuttal, Your Honor, but we have
6 motions.
7 MR. MARSHALL: No rebuttal, Judge. We have motions
8 too.
9 THE COURT: All right. Ladies and gentlemen of the
10 jury, the evidence in this case is now closed. You'll receive
11 instructions from me in the morning. And you will also hear
12 closings from the attorneys in the morning as well.
13 I'm going to go ahead and release you for the night.
14 You're reminded of your instructions for breaks, most
15 importantly, not to talk to anyone about this case, including
16 yourselves, until deliberations begin. And although the
17 evidence is closed, deliberations don't yet start. I'll be
18 very clear to you when I tell you to go start your
19 deliberations. So at this point do not speak to anyone,
20 including yourselves, about this case. And, of course, don't
21 do any research about this case in any way.
22 I hope you have a wonderful early evening. And we
23 will see you tomorrow at 9:00. Thank you.

259
1 Ms. Webster, Mr. Marshall, you've noted you had some
2 renewed motions. Do you want to state those for the record?
3 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor.
4 We renew our motion under Rule 29 for judgment of
5 acquittal on all counts against Mr. Foster on the same basis
6 as we articulated yesterday.
7 I'm sorry, one second.
8 (Pause in proceedings.)
9 MS. WEBSTER: We don't believe the government has
10 shown that he has any -- has proven -- has met its burden to
11 establish that he was acting with the requisite mens rea, that
12 there was no intent, specifically as to the money laundering
13 count, that -- and there was no evidence that he actually
14 accessed the funds.
15 I think we proved during our defense case that the
16 funds that were the subject of Count 59 were withdrawn
17 during -- were withdrawn by someone with access to the account
18 and that Ms. Pyfrom-Foster was the only person with access to
19 that account.
20 And then as to the remaining counts, again, the
21 government has not called anyone who will identify Mr. Foster
22 as the actual participant in the case. I think that's the
23 basis for the renewed Rule 29 motion, Your Honor.
24 THE COURT: Thank you.
25 Mr. Marshall?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 132 of 198
260
1 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, we'd renew our Rule 29 motion
2 on the same bases yesterday generally for both counts. Even
3 with the testimony of Mr. John Gaines, I don't think it
4 changes any of the arguments I said yesterday; no direct
5 evidence that my client had knowledge of the source, the
6 illegal source of the funds, or that the purpose was to
7 conceal the funds as part of the financial transaction.
8 The government's case is built primarily on
9 circumstantial evidence and we just don't think it's met the
10 standard for proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
11 I did want to address one more just minor argument
12 related to that -- not to the constructive amendment argument,
13 this is more just sufficiency of the evidence on the elements,
14 Judge.
15 On Count 46 -- and this may be a little bit premature
16 for my Rule 29 on this issue, but on Rule 29, the elements of
17 the offense that we have in the proposed jury instruction --
18 and I know we're not there yet, but the third element of that,
19 and this is request number 26, says -- and this has to be
20 proven beyond a reasonable doubt -- money or property did come
21 from a specified unlawful activity, specifically wire fraud.
22 So the jury is going to be instructed and they will
23 get a definition of what wire fraud is. And if this comes in
24 as is, as this instruction, that transaction was not wire
25 fraud. It was different. So I think this element that the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 133 of 198
261
1 jury is going to be instructed on, I mean, I would argue in
2 closing that they would have to find him not guilty because --
3 on Count 46 because it was not wire fraud.
4 So I'd just make that now preliminarily as a Rule 29
5 motion for acquittal and additional bases just on that
6 argument, too, Judge.
7 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
8 Ms. Chaiken, what's your response to both motions?
9 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, on the last point raised by
10 Mr. Marshall, that's a misstatement of the law and I think a
11 misunderstanding of what the elements are. The third element,
12 which refers to the money being derived from a specified
13 unlawful activity, specifically wire fraud, is a reference
14 to where the money came from that was the source of the
15 transaction, which in this case is the PPP loan fraud, which
16 has been proven to be a wire fraud.
17 The third element has nothing to do with whether the
18 financial transaction involves a wire transfer or a check or
19 anything else. It's a reference to the fact that the source
20 of the money has to be wire fraud, just as it could be a bank
21 fraud or it could be some other specified unlawful activity.
22 And so not only do we think it's not grounds for a
23 Rule 29, but we also think it would be inappropriate argument
24 to the jury because it misstates what the law is and what the
25 elements are.

1 As far as the remaining arguments, Your Honor, we
2 would rest on what we argued yesterday. We believe our case
3 has gotten stronger after the defense cases than it was
4 yesterday.
5 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
6 I'm going to deny the motions at this juncture as
7 well. I believe that the evidence viewed in the light most
8 favorable to the government was sufficient -- or is sufficient
9 for a rational trier of fact to find guilt beyond a reasonable
10 doubt as to both defendants on the charges.
11 All right. Let's go ahead and have a discussion of
12 the jury instructions.
13 I have in front of me Document 840, the parties'
14 consolidated jury instructions.
15 Before we begin, are there any of these that we
16 think, now that we know what's come in and hasn't come in,
17 don't apply at this point? I think there may be some.
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Can we have a moment to look through
19 them, Your Honor?
20 THE COURT: Sure.
21 MS. WEBSTER: Your Honor, we will withdraw our
22 request for number 11, the identification instruction. So
23 that can be resolved. And I do think a couple of other ones
24 no longer apply.
25 THE COURT: And on number 11, that was just requested

1 by Mr. Foster, not by Ms. Jackson.
2 Is that correct, Mr. Marshall?
3 MR. MARSHALL: That's correct.
4 THE COURT: Okay. So we will -- we're off the record
5 for one moment.
6 (Off-the-record discussion.)
7 THE COURT: So we'll strike number 11. It's
8 withdrawn.
9 MS. CHAIKEN: So, Your Honor, I think 6A will no
10 longer be in because neither defendant testified.
11 THE COURT: Does everyone agree, 6 is out?
12 MS. CHAIKEN: 6A.
13 THE COURT: 6A?
14 MR. MARSHALL: Yes.
15 MS. WEBSTER: 6A is out, yes.
16 THE COURT: Okay.
17 MS. CHAIKEN: I think with 12, 12C and D are out
18 because no defendant testified.
19 THE COURT: Does everyone agree?
20 MS. WEBSTER: Yes.
21 THE COURT: Hold on one second.
22 MR. MARSHALL: 12B, Judge?
23 THE COURT: 12C and D.
24 MR. MARSHALL: Yeah, C. C and D are out, yes.
25 THE COURT: Okay. We all agree on that. One moment.

264
1 I'm sorry.
2 Go ahead, Ms. Chaiken.
3 MS. CHAIKEN: So I think 12B is out because nobody
4 was impeached by a felony conviction. So that would leave us
5 with 12A.
6 THE COURT: Everyone agree, 12B is out?
7 MR. MARSHALL: Yes.
8 MS. WEBSTER: That's fine, Your Honor.
9 THE COURT: Okay. Go ahead, Ms. Chaiken.
10 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, we think number 13 is --
11 should be out because I don't think there was any witness who
12 was impeached by reputation or opinion about truthfulness.
13 MS. WEBSTER: We agree.
14 MR. MARSHALL: Agree.
15 THE COURT: All right. 13 is out.
16 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I think 14 should be out as
17 well because I don't believe character evidence was presented
18 as to any defendant.
19 MS. WEBSTER: We agree.
20 MR. MARSHALL: Agree.
21 THE COURT: All right. 14 is out as well.
22 MS. CHAIKEN: So 15 is -- I think we need to look at
23 15 because 15 is when a co-defendant with a plea agreement
24 testifies. And here Mr. Gaines testified, but the instruction
25 refers to the government making a plea agreement with a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 137 of 198
265
1 co-defendant in exchange for his or her testimony.
2 So I haven't fully read through it, but I think we
3 should put a pin in that as something that may need to be
4 removed.
5 THE COURT: Come back to 15 and discuss that.
6 MS. CHAIKEN: I think 16 should be out because no
7 404(b) evidence was admitted.
8 THE COURT: Everyone agree, we should delete 16?
9 MS. WEBSTER: Agreed.
10 MR. MARSHALL: Yes. Agreed.
11 THE COURT: All right. And so here's what I have for
12 discussion. I think there was -- we need to discuss
13 number 10, number 15, 26, 32. And then there was a
14 supplemental request to charge by Foster.
15 Has the government now received that, Ms. Webster.
16 MS. WEBSTER: Yes. I believe it was e-mailed to all
17 parties.
18 THE COURT: Okay. We need to discuss all those --
19 yes.
20 MS. WEBSTER: I'm sorry. To be clear, we filed one
21 under seal yesterday that we have not distributed, but we are
22 doing right now. And then there was one that we just filed
23 within the past half an hour that was sent to all the parties.
24 THE COURT: Okay. Well, I haven't even seen that one
25 yet. I saw the one from last night, but I now see that my
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 138 of 198
266
1 inbox includes an e-mail from 4:37. It's 4:38.
2 MS. WEBSTER: Yes. Yes.
3 THE COURT: We'll look at that, too.
4 MS. WEBSTER: Were you done listing the other ones we
5 need to address?
6 THE COURT: I think that covers the ones that someone
7 had lodged an objection on.
8 MS. WEBSTER: I think that we have an objection to
9 30, maybe.
10 THE COURT: Oh, I forgot to list 30. Yes. I have
11 that tabbed as well. Sorry.
12 So two supplemental requests, 32, 30, 26, 10 and 15;
13 right?
14 MS. WEBSTER: That's correct, Your Honor.
15 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
16 THE COURT: All right. Why don't we just take those
17 in order.
18 Number 10 is confession or statement of multiple
19 defendants. The issue here is, I believe, that the
20 instruction references, After being arrested or detained, you
21 must consider that evidence with caution and great care.
22 I understand the government's concern that this is
23 about when somebody is -- makes a statement after being
24 arrested or detained. And, obviously, that's not what
25 happened here.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 139 of 198
267
1 I know, as you state, Ms. Webster, that Mr. Foster
2 did make a statement but it wasn't after arrested or detained.
3 Here's a potential solution. We could just say --
4 and I'm just editing out a little bit of this. We could say,
5 If the government offers evidence that a defendant made a
6 statement or admission to someone, you must decide for
7 yourself, and then just read the rest of the instruction.
8 Is that agreeable to everyone?
9 MS. CHAIKEN: That's agreeable to us, Your Honor.
10 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor.
11 MR. MARSHALL: Yes, Your Honor.
12 THE COURT: Okay. We'll do that.
13 Did you get that, Ms. Mueller?
14 MS. MUELLER: Yes. So everything after "someone"
15 comes out?
16 THE COURT: Yeah. So you say, Or admission to
17 someone, you must decide for yourself. And then we have the
18 rest of it. Okay.
19 Moving to 15, give me one moment to look back at
20 that.
21 Ms. Chaiken, do you take issue with number 15?
22 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I don't think it applies
23 given the circumstances of the testimony in this case because
24 it suggests that a witness with a plea agreement may have
25 testified in the hopes of gaining more favorable treatment.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 140 of 198
268
1 And that -- Mr. Gaines is the only witness or only
2 co-defendant with a plea agreement and he testified on behalf
3 of the defense.
4 So this was obviously put in there with the
5 expectation that there may be co-defendants with plea
6 agreements who testify for the government. I don't think it
7 applies anymore.
8 THE COURT: Ms. Webster or Mr. Marshall?
9 MS. WEBSTER: I don't have strong feelings about
10 this, so I'll defer to whatever Mr. Marshall says.
11 MR. MARSHALL: Well, I'd like to change the wording
12 entirely around. You know, if you have someone that's coming
13 in without a plea agreement, that --
14 THE COURT: I'm sorry. You lost me there. You want
15 to what?
16 MR. MARSHALL: Well, I'd love to tailor this towards
17 somebody that comes in in the situation that my client did --
18 that Mr. John Gaines came in to testify. But I don't really
19 have an objection to removing this, Judge. It doesn't apply
20 to the facts of this case.
21 THE COURT: All right. So just so the record's
22 clear, everyone is amenable to deleting number 15.
23 Correct, Ms. Chaiken?
24 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
25 THE COURT: Correct, Ms. Webster?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 141 of 198
269
1 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor.
2 THE COURT: Correct, Mr. Marshall?
3 MR. MARSHALL: Yes.
4 THE COURT: All right. Let's move to on 26. And,
5 again, give me one moment.
6 I guess are there two issues here? One is the
7 original issue, which is the added language in the paragraph
8 to prove the element of concealment on page 44. And then
9 there's the additional issue that Mr. Marshall raised. Is
10 that the universe of what we need to discuss as to 26?
11 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
12 THE COURT: Okay. Let's take those in order then.
13 And, again, one moment.
14 All right. Ms. Webster, you wanted to add this
15 language to the pattern, I believe. So I'll hear from you
16 first.
17 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor.
18 The language comes from the Supreme Court's decision
19 in Cuellar, and the Eleventh Circuit's decision in Johnson.
20 And it is necessary to define the element of concealment,
21 which is an essential element of this concealment money
22 laundering offense.
23 And so the instruction currently does not define what
24 it means to conceal or disguise or that the purpose has to be
25 to conceal and not -- that the purpose has to be to conceal,
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 142 of 198
270
1 not merely the effect. And so this language, which I don't
2 think there's any dispute is an actual and correct statement
3 of the law, I think it's necessary for the jury to fully
4 understand what it must find in order to convict the defendant
5 under -- of concealment money laundering.
6 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
7 Mr. Marshall, anything from you on this before I hear
8 from the government?
9 MR. MARSHALL: No. Judge, we support Foster's
10 request for that additional language.
11 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken?
12 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, there's a lot of language
13 in various case law about what different statutes and criminal
14 statutes require that are not included in the pattern. This
15 language that's been added is from cases that are more than
16 15 years old. And the Eleventh Circuit pattern jury
17 instructions have been updated since then.
18 We're not aware of any authority holding that the
19 pattern jury instructions are in any way insufficient or
20 inaccurate. They're used regularly in this district. And
21 the -- I'm sorry, I'm just scrolling up to the element.
22 The element of concealment, as it's explained in
23 the pattern instruction, is that the defendant knew the
24 transaction was designed in whole or in part to conceal or
25 disguise the nature, location, source, ownership or control of
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 143 of 198
271
1 the proceeds.
2 Design is the same thing as purpose, that's what the
3 jury is being told, is that the transaction has to be designed
4 to conceal. And we don't think that anything further needs to
5 be explained on that.
6 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
7 Anything else, Ms. Webster?
8 MS. WEBSTER: No, Your Honor.
9 THE COURT: All right. I think it's a fair statement
10 of the law.
11 As far as the age of those cases, I guess it depends
12 on your perspective. Maybe it's an oldie but goodie from
13 Mr. Foster's perspective. So I'll allow that language in.
14 MS. WEBSTER: Thank you.
15 MR. MARSHALL: You will, Your Honor, yes?
16 THE COURT: Yes.
17 MR. MARSHALL: Thank you.
18 THE COURT: And then, Mr. Marshall, you wanted to be
19 heard on the wire fraud issue? I think Ms. Chaiken had
20 already stated her piece on that.
21 MR. MARSHALL: Yeah. Judge, I'll withdraw that. If
22 there's an issue, Judge, I may file something additional, but
23 I'll withdraw my argument.
24 THE COURT: All right. So that request is withdrawn.
25 Nothing to rule on there.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 144 of 198
272
1 Let's go to 30.
2 And, again, one moment while I look over my notes.
3 All right. Let me hear from all of you on this.
4 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, we request the deliberate
5 ignorance instruction. We believe that, especially in light
6 of the testimony that was given today by Mr. Gaines, there's
7 been ample evidence from which the jury could conclude that
8 Ms. Jackson buried her head in the sand to avoid finding out
9 what the source of the PPP loan funds were.
10 We believe we can prove actual knowledge as well,
11 but the Eleventh Circuit has held that this instruction is
12 appropriate where the jury, based on the evidence -- or when
13 the evidence could support both actual knowledge or deliberate
14 ignorance. And here the evidence we heard today established
15 that she knew Mr. Gaines was involved in PPP loan
16 applications, she had filled one out for herself. And shortly
17 after that received a huge amount of money and didn't ask any
18 questions about where it was from and what the source of it
19 was, from a business that had never before given her money or
20 had any business.
21 And so we think the facts we've heard today strongly
22 support, at the very least, deliberate ignorance. And we'd
23 ask the instruction be given on that basis.
24 THE COURT: Let me hear from Mr. Marshall first on
25 this one. And then I'm happy to also hear from you,
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 145 of 198
273
1 Ms. Webster.
2 MS. WEBSTER: Thank you.
3 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, even with Mr. Gaines's
4 testimony, Judge, I just -- there's no other evidence in the
5 case, any kind of e-mail, anything where it even infers
6 Ms. Jackson was trying to avoid getting knowledge about the
7 source of the funds. We already know -- there's just no
8 directives. It's all between Darrell Thomas and John Gaines.
9 Even if we accept the testimony that Ms. Jackson knew
10 about PPP loan applications, I asked Mr. Gaines about that,
11 about that e-mail, and he said, well, that communication with
12 Mr. Thomas was because it was going to be a legit PPP loan
13 application. And he didn't want that S-H-I-T messed up for
14 his wife. I don't think that there's any evidence in the
15 record that shows that Ms. Jackson was deliberately trying to
16 not gain knowledge about the illegal source.
17 And, again, Judge, we have to remember the witnesses
18 that would have been great for the government to help fill in
19 the backstory to this are, you know, Mr. Andre Gaines, who
20 could have testified, and Mr. Darrell Thomas. I just don't
21 think there's evidence to support this charge. And especially
22 based on citations that I put on page 50, Judge.
23 THE COURT: All right. I'm going to be blunt. I,
24 frankly, can't imagine a case where deliberate ignorance is a
25 more appropriate charge based on the Gaines's testimony that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 146 of 198
274
1 we had for several hours this afternoon. It strikes right at
2 the heart of this instruction in my opinion based on the
3 evidence.
4 And I've looked at those citations, and I understand
5 that this is not something to be given frequently, but in a
6 case like this, it seems like it's wholly applicable, at least
7 as to Ms. Jackson in her case.
8 But let me hear from Ms. Webster vis-a-vis
9 Mr. Foster. And I'm not even sure the government wants the
10 instruction as to Mr. Foster.
11 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, we don't really have a
12 view as to how the Court should address who it's as to.
13 THE COURT: All right. Well, Ms. Webster, if you
14 take issue with it, perhaps I can model this to apply to only
15 one defendant then.
16 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor. We do take issue
17 with it. So I think if the Court's going to give it to
18 Ms. Jackson, then we would request that the Court instruct the
19 jury that it only applies as to Ms. Jackson and does not apply
20 as to Mr. Foster.
21 THE COURT: All right. I'll do that without
22 objection from the government.
23 So, Ms. Mueller, let's start that one, you know,
24 we'll have the title, "Deliberate Ignorance As Proof of
25 Knowledge."
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 147 of 198
275
1 And before I say the words "if a defendant's
2 knowledge," I'll start off by saying, This next instruction
3 applies only to the government's case against Ms. Jackson. It
4 does not apply as to the government's case against Mr. Foster.
5 Let's move on to number 30 -- 32 we don't need
6 because there's the stipulation; right? Does everyone agree?
7 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
8 MS. WEBSTER: Yes.
9 MR. MARSHALL: Yes.
10 THE COURT: Okay. Then we've got the supplemental
11 request to charge. And I know those were all coming in here
12 as we were -- or I'd seen one of them, but not the other, and
13 the government, I guess, hadn't seen either of them.
14 So why don't we take a short recess just in place.
15 But if anybody wants to walk down the hall for a few minutes
16 for a comfort break, we'll do that as well. We'll just all
17 get back on the record here in, you know, maybe ten minutes or
18 so. Okay?
19 We're in recess. We don't need to stand up. Thank
20 you.
21 Thank you, Officer.
22 (After a recess at 4:54 p.m., the proceedings
23 continued at 5:13 p.m. as follows:)
24 THE COURT: I assume the government's had a chance to
25 look over these two supplemental requests?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 148 of 198
276
1 MS. CHAIKEN: We have, Your Honor.
2 THE COURT: Let's take them in order.
3 First off, defendants' theory of defense. Any
4 objection to that by the government?
5 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
6 THE COURT: Go ahead.
7 MS. CHAIKEN: I apologize, Your Honor, I just put
8 lotion on.
9 THE COURT: Take your time.
10 MS. CHAIKEN: Just before I touch my computer. Sorry
11 about that.
12 Your Honor, we were looking at United States v. Orr,
13 O-R-R. It's 819 at F.App'x 756. It's an Eleventh Circuit
14 case from 2020.
15 THE COURT: I'm sorry, that cite again? 18 F.App'x
16 1156?
17 MS. CHAIKEN: No, sorry. 819 F.App'x 756.
18 THE COURT: All right.
19 MS. CHAIKEN: One moment, Your Honor. My computer is
20 freezing up on me.
21 So, Your Honor, in that case, the Eleventh Circuit
22 explained that a theory of defense instruction is not
23 appropriate where it is little more than a defendant-friendly
24 commentary on the evidence and where it's argumentative.
25 And the Court in that case said, Our cases hold that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 149 of 198
277
1 a defendant is not entitled to an instruction that is more in
2 the nature of legal argument or a judicial narrative of his
3 version of the facts than an objective instruction on the law.
4 The Court in that case held that the district court
5 did not err by refusing to give the instruction in that case.
6 And that if the district court had given the instruction, it
7 would have impermissibly placed the defendant's desired
8 factual findings into the mouth of the Court instead of
9 fulfilling its role of providing the jury with neutral
10 guidance about the issues for deliberations.
11 And those are the same issues that we think
12 Mr. Foster's proposed instruction raises. It is basically a
13 closing argument as to what Mr. Foster believes the facts have
14 shown in the case, but it doesn't set forth any statement of
15 the law as to an element or something that would require
16 acquittal that he -- you know, that he doesn't think has been
17 proven. It's more in the nature of just legal argument as to
18 what the evidence has shown. And he's asking the Court to
19 instruct the jury as if that's an instruction on the law. And
20 that is our -- the basis for our objection.
21 THE COURT: All right. Ms. Webster, I mean, that's a
22 2020 case, which would seem to be later than your other Fifth
23 Circuit cases and -- that you cite. And I guess you have an
24 Eleventh Circuit from '86.
25 And then you've got some other cases cited, but as
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 150 of 198
278
1 far as the ones that would say, you know, you're entitled to
2 this, it looks like that's the Lively case?
3 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor. And --
4 THE COURT: It seems like -- I guess I -- obviously I
5 want to look to the most recent Eleventh Circuit case on this.
6 Ms. Chaiken's citing something from 2020. I know that's a
7 F.App'x case, but still persuasive authority, I guess.
8 MS. WEBSTER: Yes, Your Honor. But I think if you're
9 looking at the actual instruction that was requested in Orr,
10 it's quite different from what we had requested. So in that
11 case it is I think someone who was interacting with someone
12 who was underage online.
13 And so the instruction says, A major component of
14 the entertainment on the Internet is the rapid repartee, in
15 addition to having imaginative fun. When engaging in Internet
16 role play, people love to experiment with their personas.
17 Typically people weave a bit of truth about themselves with a
18 great deal of imagination and/or exaggeration.
19 And it goes on like that, just sort of describing,
20 like, general hypotheticals -- or not hypotheticals, but
21 generally the idea behind role playing online. That's not at
22 all what we have asked for, Your Honor.
23 So our proposed instructions specifically are tied to
24 the counts and -- that are charged against him and identifies
25 the piece -- or the element that we do not feel has been

1 established.
2 And so I think that -- and it's also phrased instead
3 of in the language of these are facts, which I feel like is
4 how the instruction in Orr is phrased, our instruction is
5 phrased in the language of, Mr. Foster contends that the
6 government has not shown. And, you know, he contends that
7 there is no evidence that the PPP applications were submitted
8 to the banks with his knowledge.
9 And then as to Count 59 specifically, Mr. Foster
10 contends that the government has not shown that he was a
11 willing participant.
12 And so I think that the instruction that Orr is
13 responding to is quite different from the argument that -- or
14 from the proposed instruction that we have submitted. And I
15 think our instruction is permitted under the Eleventh Circuit
16 decision in Lively and would ask that it would be given.
17 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken?
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, the requested instruction
19 that was at issue in Lively was -- it was a short instruction
20 that said, Members of the jury, you are hereby instructed that
21 after the arrest of David Richards, who was an alleged
22 co-conspirator, on March 24th of 1985, he became the
23 government's agent and informer and thereafter could not be a
24 co-conspirator with William David Lively because one who acts
25 as a government agent and enters into a purported conspiracy

1 in the secret role of an informer cannot be a co-conspirator.
2 That was a theory of defense that was based on the
3 law that you cannot be a co-conspirator if you are a
4 government informer. And so that instruction was instructing
5 the jury as to law that it should consider in its
6 deliberations that could impact how it -- how it deliberates
7 and what verdict it reaches.
8 Whereas here, I think in looking at the theory
9 of defense instruction, there's no additional law or no
10 additional concept that is not covered in the jury
11 instructions that the defense is asking the jury to be given.
12 They're just asking basically for their closing argument to
13 be included in the jury instructions and characterize the
14 evidence as part of a jury instruction.
15 THE COURT: All right. Thank you, Ms. Chaiken.
16 Yeah, Ms. Webster, you know, we -- it seems like what
17 was at issue in Lively, as Ms. Chaiken just quoted, was
18 something that does go to the law involved. Whereas, in the
19 2020 Eleventh Circuit case, you know, it talked about little
20 more than a defendant-friendly commentary on the evidence and
21 putting the desired factual findings into the mouth of the
22 Court. That seems to be exactly what you're doing here.
23 I mean, you highlighted your word "contends," but I
24 would say that that's putting me in the realm of what's the
25 2020 case -- what was the name of that case?

281
1 MS. CHAIKEN: It was Orr, O-R-R.
2 THE COURT: Orr? O-R-R? Yeah.
3 So I'm inclined to sustain the government's
4 objection, but I want to -- it's a conditional ruling. I want
5 to read those cases in their entirety. And happy to hear
6 tomorrow morning if anybody has any additional cases to point
7 to me, but I just think the Orr case is persuasive because as
8 you read this, it's not filling in for the jury anything about
9 the law like in Lively, it's essentially just kind of, hey,
10 I'm the judge and here's the defense, here's the defense case.
11 And that seems to be, you know, what the Orr case is saying is
12 not necessary.
13 So I'll look over the cases, but just for planning,
14 I'll tell you that I'm leaning to sustaining the government's
15 objection on that.
16 Let's move to --
17 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I have no objection obviously
18 to that charge anyway. Just wanted to put that on the record.
19 THE COURT: All right. Thank you, Mr. Marshall.
20 No dog in that hunt, I guess you would say?
21 MR. MARSHALL: I mean, I'm sitting back here.
22 THE COURT: All right. Let's move to the next one.
23 This involves Mr. Dixon. Is there an objection,
24 Ms. Chaiken, to this?
25 MS. CHAIKEN: There is, Your Honor.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 154 of 198
282
1 THE COURT: Okay. Go ahead.
2 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, the case -- the first case
3 that Mr. Foster cites in footnote 1, he has the quote from the
4 Eleventh Circuit in United States v. Raphael, 487 F.App'x 490,
5 which says, The Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals has not yet
6 addressed the issue of whether the government's refusal to
7 grant immunity to a witness may serve as a basis for a missing
8 witness instruction.
9 The very next sentence of that case, which is not
10 included in this footnote, is, But every circuit to have
11 considered this question has held that the government's mere
12 ability to grant immunity without more does not make a witness
13 who invokes the Fifth Amendment right not to testify
14 peculiarly available to the government within the meaning of
15 the missing witness rule.
16 And there are cites to a Fifth Circuit case, a Second
17 Circuit case, a First Circuit case, a Ninth Circuit case, a
18 Seventh Circuit case and a DC Circuit case.
19 So every circuit that has considered this issue has
20 unanimously held that the government's ability to grant
21 immunity to a witness cannot serve as a basis for this missing
22 witness instruction. And here, Your Honor --
23 THE COURT: One moment, Ms. Chaiken, I'm sorry.
24 Go ahead, Ms. Chaiken. Sorry for the interruption.
25 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, the proposed instruction

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 155 of 198
283
1 here says it was particularly within the power of the
2 government to grant immunity to Ricky Dixon. And that, in the
3 circumstances in which this has happened in this case, is not
4 true.
5 The first time we heard of any request for immunity
6 was this morning, minutes before Mr. Dixon was here. A grant
7 of immunity to a witness requires multiple levels of approval,
8 both from our office and from the Department of Justice. And
9 this case has been on the trial calendar for nine months. We
10 have not heard about it until this morning. And it would be,
11 I think, very misleading to suggest to the jury that we could
12 have decided to grant Mr. Dixon immunity and have him testify
13 under these circumstances because we could not have done so.
14 I also don't think any record has been made that
15 Mr. Dixon would have given favorable testimony to the defense.
16 We asked them to do so. They refused to do so and to say what
17 he was going to testify about, how they knew that, what they
18 expected him to say.
19 And so I think in the circumstances where Mr. Dixon
20 has already invoked the Fifth in the presence of the jury,
21 Ms. Webster was permitted to ask him a series of questions as
22 to which she knew he was going to invoke the Fifth and
23 basically allowed her to just say whatever she wanted in the
24 presence of the jury and have him invoke the Fifth, I think
25 the inference, whatever it is, you know, has already been

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 156 of 198
284
1 presented to the jury. But I don't think there's any basis,
2 both given the law and given the circumstances here, to
3 instruct the jury that Mr. Dixon would have provided favorable
4 evidence and to suggest to the jury that the reason why we
5 didn't grant him immunity is because we didn't want him to
6 testify favorably to the defense.
7 THE COURT: Ms. Webster, let me hear from you. Also
8 I would be interested to hear from you about the -- and, you
9 know, as Ms. Chaiken was reading it, I was also pulling up the
10 case and reading it myself.
11 One moment.
12 I guess I'd like to hear you regarding the selective
13 quotation there. I mean, you quoted, This Court has not yet
14 addressed the issue of whether the government's refusal to
15 grant immunity to a witness may serve as a basis for a missing
16 witness instruction, but you didn't give me -- and obviously
17 Ms. Chaiken looked at the case and gave me, and simultaneous
18 with that, my law clerk had pulled the case and sent to me the
19 second sentence right after that that says, But every circuit
20 who has considered this question has held, et cetera.
21 So I'm, frankly, a little concerned by that.
22 MS. WEBSTER: Your Honor, may Ms. Durrett address
23 this issue? She was researching it while I was --
24 THE COURT: Yes. I'd be happy to hear from whoever
25 Mr. Foster's counsel elected to give me just part of that.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 157 of 198
285
1 MS. DURRETT: Your Honor, it's me. I'm the one that
2 wrote that and sent that to the Court.
3 The "without more" part of those cases is without a
4 showing that the testimony would be favorable. So the cases
5 say you can't just say, okay, they didn't grant him immunity
6 so we should be able to have an adverse inference in this
7 case. It's that you have to have a witness who is
8 particularly within the control of one of the parties and that
9 you can show that the testimony would be favorable that you
10 want.
11 And so that's the "without more" component, Your
12 Honor, that we can show that the government had the ability to
13 grant immunity. Mr. Berne requested that immunity. The
14 government denied that request. And Ms. Webster did put on
15 the record that Mr. Dixon would testify in a favorable way.
16 THE COURT: Well, did the government deny the request
17 or did Ms. Chaiken say she doesn't have the ability to do
18 that, which I think is true? Ms. Chaiken does not sit there
19 as a Department of Justice of one. She didn't have the
20 ability at that moment to grant the immunity.
21 I mean, could someone have requested that we pause
22 the case and take a week for it to go up to Washington, DC,
23 and back down? Perhaps, but no one did so. So her statement
24 that she didn't have the ability to do that was true. I mean,
25 Ms. Chaiken doesn't have the ability to grant Mr. Dixon

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 158 of 198
286
1 immunity as we were sitting here today.
2 MS. DURRETT: That's right, Your Honor. But the
3 government also didn't bring Mr. Dixon to testify in this
4 case. They had the ability to bring him as a witness. So the
5 cases talk about the -- how a witness is available to both
6 parties; right?
7 So typically in a situation where a witness is
8 unavailable, they're unavailable to both parties. But we
9 can -- we have a showing here where the witness was only
10 unavailable as to us. And that's because the government could
11 have brought him, they could have given him immunity to
12 testify, but they chose not to do so. So we are the party
13 that is -- that he is unavailable to. And that's what the
14 cases talk about. And the government didn't say that it would
15 have tried to get immunity.
16 THE COURT: I'm sorry?
17 MS. WEBSTER: I think that what the -- if I recall
18 correctly, and I obviously don't have the transcript in front
19 of me, but I think that what the government --
20 THE COURT: One moment.
21 Your instruction, It was particularly within the
22 power of the government to grant immunity to Ricky Dixon, who
23 could have given material testimony on an issue in the case,
24 but that's just different than the situation we have.
25 I mean, you called -- you decided to call -- I mean,

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 159 of 198
287
1 there were dozens of co-defendants the United States could
2 have called or the defense could have called. I assume the
3 decision was made not to call co-defendants because all of
4 them had been engaged in -- or most of them had been engaged
5 in fraud, so perhaps they're not the best witnesses. But this
6 is a situation in which you called the witness. And as we've
7 seen, calling these co-defendants, some of them decide to
8 invoke their Fifth Amendment rights. Mr. Dixon did. Some of
9 them don't. Mr. Gaines testified in great detail.
10 And so at that moment the government didn't have the
11 ability. And I think that's what Ms. Chaiken said, is -- and
12 we can, you know -- when was that? Was that this afternoon or
13 was it this morning?
14 MS. CHAIKEN: It was this morning, Your Honor. And I
15 believe we said we don't have authority to do that.
16 THE COURT: And you don't; is that correct, as an
17 officer of the court?
18 MS. CHAIKEN: No. We -- and with Mr. Moore, who is
19 here from the Department of Justice, that imposes even greater
20 approval requirements on the grant of immunity because we
21 would each need to get approval from that -- from our --
22 through our respective processes.
23 THE COURT: All right.
24 Ms. Durrett, go ahead.
25 MS. DURRETT: Your Honor, I mean, I think that what
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 160 of 198
288
1 we've said is our position, that we believe that he was
2 unavailable only as to us, and for that reason we think we're
3 entitled to the instruction.
4 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor?
5 THE COURT: Yes.
6 MS. CHAIKEN: I pulled up the first case that was
7 one of the cases cited in the Raphael decision about other
8 circuits that have considered this issue. It's a Fifth
9 Circuit case, United States v. Rios, 636 F.3d 168. It's a
10 Fifth Circuit case from 2011.
11 And in that case the Fifth Circuit said -- well, the
12 defendant in that case argued that a particular witness was
13 peculiarly within the government's control because the
14 government had the ability to grant immunity. And further the
15 defendant argued that the witness's testimony allegedly would
16 have been relevant.
17 The Court then went on to say, The Fifth Circuit has
18 yet to address whether a witness who relies upon his or her
19 constitutional right not to testify is peculiarly within the
20 government's control. Every circuit that has considered the
21 question, though, has held that the government's ability to
22 grant immunity does not make a witness who invokes the Fifth
23 Amendment right not to testify peculiarly available to the
24 government.
25 That was not dependent in any way on whether or not
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 161 of 198
289
1 the person -- or that the defendant had made a showing that
2 the testimony would have been favorable; it was just
3 addressing the question of whether the government's decision
4 not to grant immunity makes the witness peculiarly within the
5 government's control.
6 And then the Court went on to say -- the Court went
7 on to say, Some circuits have provided an exception where
8 there's a substantial showing of an abuse of prosecutorial
9 discretion or where circumstances indicate that the witness
10 would have been exculpatory.
11 And the Court then went on to say, Requiring a
12 missing witness instruction each time the prosecution decides
13 not to immunize a witness would constitute a substantial
14 judicial encroachment upon prosecutorial discretion.
15 In addition, a prosecutor's decision not to grant
16 immunity does not categorically give rise to an inference that
17 the witness's testimony would be unfavorable to the
18 government.
19 And the Court then goes on to say, We conclude that
20 the government's failure to grant immunity to a witness who
21 invokes the Fifth Amendment right not to testify does not by
22 itself entitle a defendant to a missing witness instruction.
23 The defendant in that case did not argue
24 prosecutorial abuse of discretion, so they need not consider
25 whether exceptions apply.

290
1 THE COURT: All right. I think that's persuasive
2 authority and I think it applies here. I mean, there's no --
3 is there any prosecutorial abuse here, Ms. Durrett? I mean,
4 the prosecution was faced with this immunity issue on the fly
5 and said it didn't have the authority to do that, which is
6 true, right during the trial anyway. And no one requested a
7 pause for them to go up the flagpole for that.
8 MS. WEBSTER: Your Honor, to jump in, we can -- I can
9 review the transcript later, but I think -- I may be wrong,
10 but I thought what the government said was, we don't have the
11 authority to do that and we're not going to do that. And so
12 they did not indicate that there was any willingness to try;
13 therefore, pausing the trial to allow that to happen would
14 have been futile because there was no indication of any
15 willingness by the government to do so.
16 And I just want to go back and make very clear that,
17 based on our conversations with Mr. Dixon's attorney, there is
18 a very clear belief on our part, and I think -- I want the
19 record to be clear that Mr. Dixon's testimony would have been
20 favorable because he would have said that Darrell Thomas told
21 him to identify Teldrin Foster. And we have a good faith
22 basis for saying that. That is not speculation. And I think
23 I put that on the record this morning, but I just want to be
24 very clear about that. And I think that's all.
25 THE COURT: Why don't you both give me briefs on this

1 by 9:00 tomorrow morning. You can just restate what you've
2 already stated if you don't have anything new, or if you have
3 something new, you can add it so I have it all in one place.
4 Ms. Lee, let's tell the jury, if we have the ability
5 to get in touch with them, to not come until 10:00. I want to
6 make sure I've read the proper cases on this one before we
7 make any decision.
8 Actually, get me those by 8:30, if you can. That'll
9 give me -- in addition to looking over some things this
10 evening, it'll give me 8:30 to 9:30 to review your filings
11 and then 30 more minutes to talk to you about it if I need it
12 before we bring in the jury at 10:00.
13 And I'll also look back further on the theory of
14 defense cases which I want to read through.
15 All right. Anything else from anyone this evening?
16 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, as far as the time
17 limitation for closing arguments, I had previously, when there
18 was still four defendants, requested 90 minutes. I would like
19 to revise that request to 75 minutes.
20 THE COURT: Okay. And how much time do each of the
21 defendants want?
22 MS. WEBSTER: I'm going to request 60, but I don't
23 think I will talk that long.
24 THE COURT: All right.
25 Mr. Marshall?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 164 of 198
292
1 MR. MARSHALL: How much time, Leigh Ann?
2 MS. WEBSTER: I requested 60.
3 MR. MARSHALL: Yeah. No more than an hour, Judge. I
4 think that's appropriate. 60 minutes.
5 THE COURT: All right. Well, if -- Ms. Chaiken, if
6 you need a full 75, you can have it.
7 Ms. Webster, if you need a full 60, you can have it.
8 Mr. Marshall, do you know what I'm about to say?
9 MR. MARSHALL: Same thing I hope, Judge.
10 THE COURT: Yes. If you need a full 60, you can have
11 it, but I would hope that each of those can be shorter than
12 that.
13 MS. WEBSTER: Your Honor, I'm sorry, we did have one
14 issue. I am slightly concerned, based on some of the answers
15 to cross-examination yesterday, that I feel like I should
16 renew our motion in limine about the government taking
17 inconsistent positions between this trial and then its
18 positions at Gena Pyfrom-Foster's sentencing hearing.
19 And it's limited to -- currently to this issue, which
20 is that on the stand the -- I believe that the agent denied
21 that they were -- that Gena Pyfrom-Foster was hiding her
22 communications with Darrell Thomas from Mr. Foster.
23 And I crossed him on that a little bit more, but at
24 Ms. Foster -- or Ms. Pyfrom-Foster's sentencing hearing, the
25 government specifically stated, There is, if anything, an
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 165 of 198
293
1 indication Ms. Pyfrom-Foster's communications with Darrell
2 Thomas that she was hiding from her husband, that she was
3 talking to Darrell Thomas directly. She talks about Ted all
4 the time in a negative way in her WhatsApp messages. And then
5 she says there was no indication she was being forced to do
6 any of this, she was hiding that she was doing it from
7 Mr. Foster.
8 And so while we are not currently asking for, you
9 know, any sort of information to go back to the jury, I just
10 wanted to put on the record that if the government takes a
11 position that's inconsistent with its statements, that -- or
12 implies that, you know, Ms. Pyfrom-Foster and Mr. Thomas were
13 all communicating with Mr. Foster together, especially during
14 the relevant time periods, that we believe that -- we would
15 believe that that would be objectionable and will object at
16 the time.
17 So I just sort of wanted to put that on the record at
18 this point.
19 THE COURT: So noted.
20 Anything else from anyone this evening?
21 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, does the Court instruct the
22 jury before or after closing arguments?
23 THE COURT: I usually do it after.
24 MS. CHAIKEN: After? Okay.
25 MR. MARSHALL: Your Honor, does the jury get a copy
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 166 of 198
294
1 of the jury instructions, a printout to take back for
2 deliberations?
3 THE COURT: Would everyone like that?
4 MR. MARSHALL: I would for Ms. Jackson.
5 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes.
6 MS. WEBSTER: Yes.
7 THE COURT: Ms. Webster? All three of you do?
8 That's fine.
9 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, should we prepare a copy of
10 the indictment to be sent back to the jury?
11 THE COURT: Yes. I thought we discussed that at the
12 pretrial conference and that y'all were doing that. Do I
13 misremember?
14 MS. CHAIKEN: I'm probably misremembering, Your
15 Honor.
16 MR. MARSHALL: Judge -- I'm sorry.
17 MS. WEBSTER: I don't know that I remember what the
18 conversation was, but is it --
19 THE COURT: I thought we breached that subject, but I
20 may not remember. I assume --
21 MS. CHAIKEN: Yeah. I mean, we think --
22 THE COURT: I don't know how they could do their work
23 without it; right?
24 MS. CHAIKEN: I agree, yes.
25 MS. WEBSTER: We agree.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT - OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

295
1 THE COURT: Ms. Webster and Mr. Marshall, it sounds
2 like they agree as well.
3 MR. MARSHALL: (Nods head.)
4 THE COURT: I guess that there were going to be
5 some -- then there's the stipulations about the banks or
6 whatnot, was that changed to company one, bank one or
7 something, and then there was a stipulation about that. So
8 I'm not sure how that all panned out.
9 MS. CHAIKEN: Correct, Your Honor. We have the
10 stipulation that has the chart of what the entities correspond
11 to. And my understanding was that when the Court explained
12 the indictment or told the jury that they were going to get a
13 copy of the indictment, it would let them know that they would
14 have this chart with them, is my understanding.
15 So we'll send back the jury instructions, the
16 indictment, the stipulations, the exhibits obviously.
17 I think that's it.
18 THE COURT: Okay.
19 MR. MARSHALL: Your Honor, I have one more comment on
20 the jury instructions I don't think we raised. Sorry.
21 MS. CHAIKEN: Oh, I did have one more question, Your
22 Honor. Sorry.
23 THE COURT: Hold on. Let me finish my notes, then
24 I'll hear from Mr. Marshall, then I'll hear from you, please.
25 Okay. Mr. Marshall.

1 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, on request to charge number 19,
2 did we discuss that, by chance? This has to do with the
3 introduction to offenses instructions, that's request to
4 charge number 19. Since we don't have the same defendants in
5 the case, we have to modify that language in the first
6 paragraph and downward.
7 THE COURT: All right. This is just what y'all sent
8 me. So what do you want to change from what you've sent me
9 that you wanted earlier?
10 MR. MARSHALL: Well, it just lays out which
11 defendants are charged with which counts. So Defendant Gaines
12 should not be in here anymore. So that needs to be deleted,
13 that line in the first paragraph where it says, Defendant
14 Gaines is charged in Counts 6 through 8, Count 37 and Counts
15 44 through 47.
16 The next line goes out with Defendant Baptiste.
17 Defendant Jackson can stay in there, just take the
18 "and" out and leave it as -- you know, fix it that way.
19 The second paragraph, the Defendants Gaines, Baptiste
20 or Foster, that needs to be changed as far as the conspiracy.
21 And I don't represent -- I don't know, Leigh Ann, if
22 you want to talk about that, how that goes.
23 MS. WEBSTER: Yeah. The next paragraph, so the third
24 paragraph should also be modified to just say other charge --
25 other counts charged. I don't think anything -- I mean, it's

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 169 of 198
297
1 just who's charged. I don't think the substance of anything
2 needs to change.
3 MR. MARSHALL: Yep. It's just who is charged.
4 THE COURT: All right. So just so we're clear on
5 this -- and I don't think this is any issue, I don't hear
6 Ms. Chaiken saying anything -- but on request to charge 19,
7 we're going to delete, starting with Defendant Gaines, that
8 line, the entire next line, and then through -- 48 through 50?
9 MS. WEBSTER: Correct.
10 THE COURT: Okay. And then we're going to delete the
11 words "Gaines," "Baptiste" in the second paragraph, and we're
12 going to delete the words "Gaines," "Baptiste" in the third
13 paragraph; correct?
14 MS. WEBSTER: Yes.
15 THE COURT: Correct, Mr. Marshall?
16 MR. MARSHALL: Yes, Judge.
17 THE COURT: Correct, Ms. Chaiken?
18 MS. CHAIKEN: Yes, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: Ms. Mueller, do you have that?
20 Wonderful. All right. Thank you.
21 I need to hear from Ms. Chaiken on something else.
22 I'll be reviewing your filings that I get by 8:30 tomorrow
23 morning. At 8:30 tomorrow morning, I'd like the -- any of the
24 paralegals involved in the case that have been tracking all
25 the exhibits and Ms. Lee to meet to make sure we have a stack

Case 1:20-cr-00296-JPB-CMS Document 1030 Filed 06/14/24 Page 170 of 198

1 of exhibits ready. You know, if that's not planned in
2 advance, you know, we'll have the instruction -- I'll give
3 them the instructions, I'll tell them to go deliberate and,
4 hold on, we'll get you the exhibits, and then it's an hour
5 later before y'all have the exhibits ready to go back.
6 So I would like between 8:30 and 9:30 for that to be
7 done by everyone concerned. Y'all can compare lists and make
8 sure the stack is accurate.
9 Ms. Chaiken, you had an additional issue?
10 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, just a question as far as
11 the exhibits going back. Does the Court want us to send back
12 a list of our exhibits that have been admitted to aid the jury
13 or not?
14 THE COURT: If everyone wants to put a list together,
15 that's one combined list, that's not objectionable to anyone,
16 I'd be happy to have you do that. But to the extent we're
17 going to get into disputes about how something's labeled, we
18 won't have any lists.
19 So if y'all can agree on a combined list of exhibits,
20 what they are, I'm happy to send the list back. But if
21 sending a list back is going to mean that we're going to need
22 to have a conversation about how to describe something, you
23 know, I'll cross that bridge when we come to it, but I can
24 tell you I'm probably not going to want to have that
25 conversation.

1 MS. CHAIKEN: Understood, Your Honor. We'll talk to
2 defense counsel.
3 THE COURT: Anything else?
4 MR. MARSHALL: Ms. Chaiken, verdict forms?
5 Sorry, Judge. We have one or two issues with the
6 verdict forms or what are suggestions. We want them ready
7 tomorrow.
8 It can probably be done tomorrow if you want, Judge.
9 THE COURT: No, let's go ahead and do it tonight.
10 Thank you for the reminder.
11 I, frankly, hadn't -- as to the verdict form, I had
12 seen these come in. I didn't know there was much controversy
13 about them. I was under the impression there wasn't. Let me
14 know what you disagree on, if any.
15 I'm looking at Document 841, parties' proposed
16 verdict form. And then I'm looking at 842 and 845.
17 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, I'm not sure which docket
18 entry is which one because I'm looking at the Word documents.
19 But we are in agreement with Mr. Foster as to the verdict
20 form, that was an agreed verdict form.
21 With respect to Ms. Jackson's verdict --
22 THE COURT: So just so the record is clear, and I
23 think it's -- 841 is parties' proposed verdict form as to
24 Mr. Foster. And that's, yeah, correct where I flipped and
25 didn't see any issues.

1 And then 842, that's Baptiste. We don't need to
2 concern ourselves with that.
3 But 845 is the proposed verdict form regarding
4 Ms. Jackson. Give me one moment.
5 MR. MARSHALL: I can make this quick, Judge.
6 THE COURT: Yes.
7 MR. MARSHALL: I don't demand that we take our
8 request that we take the word "unanimously" out. I think that
9 was the only remaining issue on mine; right? I think?
10 MS. CHAIKEN: Well, also you had wanted -- you had
11 wanted to delete, As to Count 46 of the indictment charging
12 money laundering, you had just wanted it to say, We the jury
13 find Defendant Carla Jackson.
14 MR. MARSHALL: We can leave that in, Judge. I have
15 no objection.
16 So it can be, As to Count 46 of the indictment, leave
17 all that in and unanimously.
18 THE COURT: All right. So it sounds like any
19 objections the defense had to the government language are
20 withdrawn.
21 MR. MARSHALL: Yes.
22 THE COURT: So we have an agreed-upon form as to
23 Ms. Jackson as well.
24 I guess the only issue is that the government had
25 noted that the order of guilty, not guilty was different in

301
1 Ms. Marshall's (sic) than in Mr. Foster's.
2 MS. CHAIKEN: Right. Yes. I mean, we just think it
3 should be consistent, whatever it is.
4 MR. MARSHALL: Judge, I'd just prefer the other.
5 It's always ordered guilty, not guilty, but, you know, there's
6 a presumption of innocence and I like the not guilty appearing
7 first.
8 MS. WEBSTER: We would also not mind not guilty
9 coming first, but I don't feel strongly about it.
10 MR. MARSHALL: But I wouldn't want them -- if they're
11 inconsistent between --
12 THE COURT: All right. Let's just --
13 MS. WEBSTER: -- all of them, it would be a problem,
14 between the two.
15 THE COURT: Ms. Chaiken, do you have any position on
16 this?
17 MS. CHAIKEN: Your Honor, we're fine with whatever
18 order. If Mr. Foster wants to reverse those because it's a
19 long verdict form with a lot of counts. You know, it would
20 just take longer to switch the not guiltys and guiltys on that
21 one than to switch the guilty and not guilty on Ms. Jackson's.
22 THE COURT: It sounds like Ms. Webster's willing to
23 be the scrivener to make those administrative changes. Is
24 that right, Ms. Webster?
25 MS. WEBSTER: I thought I was making it easier by

1 agreeing with Mr. Marshall, but sure, we can change it, yes.
2 THE COURT: Yeah. Okay. Well, those will -- we'll
3 keep Ms. Jackson's verdict form the way it is, and then
4 Ms. Webster will get us a new verdict form that reverses the
5 guilty, not guilty order.
6 And I will speak with you at 9:30 regarding that one
7 open issue about Ricky Dixon.
8 And I'll also look back and -- I've read excerpts of
9 the cases on the other issue, but I'll go back and read the
10 entirety of those cases and let you know if I've changed my
11 mind on that or if you have any additional argument on that.
12 I hope all concerned have a good evening.
