@mc926@burneystweets Yea, Scott made a mistake with that and the actual plea Ermin took which was a miscarriage of a felony unrelated to Quinn charges but related to the drug activity he knew was taking place at the strip club.
2/2. The government’s understanding of this evidentiary rule is as follows: Fed. R. Evid.
801(d)(2)(B). The Rule expressly recognizes that, under appropriate circumstances, silence in response to an accusation may constitute an adoptive admission.
1/2. Peter Gerace’s cell mate saw Gerace watching a video of a woman feeding rats to a snake and asked if they were the same rats left on Quinn’s car. According to govt.Peter didn’t respond with denial and this can be considered a tacit admission of guilt.
Anthony Gerace was Bongiovanni's co-conspirator 2 and traveled with him to Toronto with others who were involved in the distribution of cocaine and marijuana.
Feds want the court to allow Crystal Quinn statement about "mob meetings" at Gerace's home alleging "this evidence is highly relevant to Mr. Gerace's motive for conspiring to kill Ms. Quinn."
