`
`Re: United States v. Mustapha Raji
`19 Cr. 870 (JMF)
`

`
`Dear Judge Furman:
`
`I am the attorney for Mustapha Raji, the defendant in the above-referenced matter. On
`May 27, 2020, the Court granted Mr. Raji’s bail application and ordered that he be released
`pursuant to a $100,000 personal recognizance bond co-signed by three “financially responsible
`persons” and secured by $10,000 in collateral. Mr. Raji remains in custody.
`
`At this time, the parties have reached an agreement, and the government, by AUSA Eun
`Young Choi, consents to Mr. Raji’s release on bond co-signed by two financially responsible
`persons and one person for moral suasion purposes. The government has interviewed and
`approved all three individuals – Sergena St. Fort and Cheri Backman, who will be co-signing as
`financially responsible persons, and Patrick Wisner, who will be co-signing for moral suasion.
`
`Accordingly, it is respectfully requested that the Court modify its May 27, 2020 Bail
`Order to allow the bond to be co-signed by two financially responsible persons and one
`individual for moral suasion.
`
`If the Court has any questions regarding this matter, please contact my office. I thank
`your Honor for your time and attention to this matter.
