Heather Morgan, who was charged along with her husband Illya Lichtenstein for attempting to launder $3.6 billion worth of Bitcoin from the 2016 Bitfinex, has requested a modification of her pre-trial release terms. Morgan Allowed to Find New Job Before Trial According to a Bloomberg report from today, Heather Morgan requested a judge in Washington to modify the conditions of her pre-trial release terms to allow her to seek ‘legitimate employment and receive income greater than $10,000 per month.’ The report by Bloomberg further pointed out that prosecutors did not object to the request. In February, the U.S. Department of Justice arrested Morgan and her husband in New York for attempting to launder over $3.6 billion in Bitcoin linked to the 2016 hack on the Bitfinex exchange. The agency also seized $3.6 billion worth of bitcoin tied to the 2016 hack of Bitfinex. According to court documents, they allegedly conspired to launder the proceeds of roughly 119,754 Bitcoin stolen in 2016 from Bitfinex and initiated over 2,000 unauthorized transactions to a wallet belonging to Lichtenstein. Both Morgan and Lichtenstein were charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and conspiracy to defraud the United States and could face as many as 25 years in prison if convicted. They were subsequently granted bail.The post Bitfinex Hack Suspect Heather Morgan Free to Find New Job Before Trial appeared first on Cryptoknowmics-Crypto News and Media Platform.
