Safemoon首席執行官Braden John Karony要求法官推遲他即將進行的刑事審判，理由是唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）政府的監管變更

在2月5日向紐約東區（EDNY）美國地方法院提交的文件中，卡里的法律團隊認為證券交易委員會（SEC）

SafeMoon (SFM) CEO Braden John Karony has requested a postponement of his upcoming criminal trial, citing potential changes in regulatory policies under the Donald Trump administration that could impact the charges against him.

Safemoon（SFM）首席執行官Braden John Karony要求推遲他即將進行的刑事審判，理由是唐納德·特朗普政府規定的監管政策的潛在變化可能會影響對他的指控。

In a Feb. 5 filing with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York (EDNY), Karony’s legal team highlighted the recent executive order signed by Trump on Jan. 23, which proposed a review of crypto regulations.

在2月5日向美國東部地區紐約東區（EDNY）的地方法院提交的文件中，卡里的法律團隊強調了特朗普在1月23日簽署的最新行政命令，該命令提出了對加密法規的審查。

They also pointed to statements made by SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, suggesting the possibility of retroactive relief for some crypto-related cases.

他們還指出，SEC專員Hester Peirce的陳述表明，一些與加密相關的案件有可能追溯救濟。

Karony’s lawyers specifically requested to move jury selection from March 2025 to April 2025, arguing that upcoming SEC policy changes could influence whether SafeMoon’s SFM token is classified as a security.

Karony的律師特別要求從2025年3月至2025年4月搬遷陪審團，並認為即將進行的SEC政策變更可能會影響Safemoon的SFM Token是否被歸類為安全。

“Under the current scheduling order in this case, the parties may learn within days or hours of the commencement of trial that DOJ no longer considers digital assets like SafeMoon to be ‘securities’ under the securities laws,” Karony’s lawyers wrote in the filing.

卡里尼的律師在檔案中寫道：“根據當前的日程安排令，當事方可能會在審判開始後的幾天或幾個小時內學習，司法部不再認為像Safemoon這樣的數字資產是根據證券法為“證券”。”

His defense team further explained that changes in classification could occur before, during, or after the trial, impacting how charges are prosecuted.

他的國防小組進一步解釋說，分類的變化可能發生在審判之前，期間或之後，會影響指控的起訴方式。

“This would obviously have a profound impact on the remaining charges in this case, which hinge on the classification of digital assets like SafeMoon,” they added.

他們補充說：“在這種情況下，這顯然會對剩餘的指控產生深遠的影響，這取決於Safemoon等數字資產的分類。”

Federal prosecutors indicted Karony, Kyle Nagy, and Thomas Smith in November 2023 on multiple charges, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering.

聯邦檢察官於2023年11月指控卡羅尼，凱爾·納吉（Kyle Nagy）和托馬斯·史密斯（Thomas Smith）以多項指控，包括串謀實施電匯欺詐和洗錢。

Authorities claim that the SafeMoon executives misappropriated millions of dollars from SafeMoon’s SFM token between 2021 and 2022. Karony pleaded not guilty, while Nagy reportedly fled to Russia.

當局聲稱，Safemoon高管在2021年至2022年之間從Safemoon的SFM代幣中盜用了數百萬美元。卡里（Karony）不認罪，而據報導納吉（Nagy）逃往俄羅斯。

On Feb. 7, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the EDNY filed a response, opposing Karony’s motion to delay his trial.

2月7日，美國埃德尼（Edny）的檢察官辦公室提出了回應，反對卡里（Karony）推遲審判的動議。

The prosecution argued that Karony's request for a trial delay is based on hypothetical regulatory policies and that the remaining charges against him are not affected by the classification of SafeMoon’s token as a security.

檢方認為，卡里對審判延誤的要求是基於假設的監管政策，而對他的剩餘指控並不受Safemoon代幣分類為安全的影響。

“Even if the SEC were to change its approach to digital assets like SafeMoon, which it has not, these additional counts have nothing to do with SafeMoon’s status as a security or the hypothetical policies to which the defendant points,” John Durham, a federal prosecutor, wrote in a court filing.

“即使SEC要改變其對Safemoon（Safemoon之類的數字資產）的方法，這些額外的計數與Safemoon作為安全的地位或被告指向的假設政策無關。”檢察官在法庭文件中寫道。

The prosecution further stated that no imminent regulatory changes would impact the criminal case.

檢方進一步指出，即將發生的監管變更不會影響刑事案件。

“There is no pending administrative proceeding, no imminent agency action, and no regulatory change that would moot these charges,” the filing reads.

該文件寫道：“沒有待在的行政程序，沒有迫在眉睫的機構訴訟，也沒有任何可能提出這些指控的監管變更。”

As of Feb. 7, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the EDNY is being led by John Durham, who was appointed in an acting capacity. Trump has nominated Joseph Nocella Jr. to take over, pending Senate confirmation.

截至2月7日，美國埃德尼檢察官辦公室由約翰·達勒姆（John Durham）領導，約翰·達勒姆（John Durham）被任命為表演能力。特朗普已提名小約瑟夫·諾塞拉（Joseph Nocella Jr.）接管參議院的確認。

In the Southern District of New York, Danielle Sassoon is currently overseeing cases.

在紐約南部地區，丹妮爾·薩桑（Danielle Sassoon）目前正在監督案件。

Reports have indicated that some prosecutors in the DOJ may reduce crypto-related enforcement while waiting for Trump’s appointee, former SEC Chair Jay Clayton, to be confirmed.

報告表明，司法部的一些檢察官可能會在等待特朗普任命的前SEC主席傑伊·克萊頓（Jay Clayton）時減少與加密相關的執法。

The SafeMoon CEO was released on a $3 million bond in February 2024, awaiting trial.

Safemoon首席執行官於2024年2月以300萬美元的債券發行，等待審判。
