US Magistrate Lauren Louis rejected a defence motion for release, stating the brothers failed to prove they are not a flight risk or a danger to the community. Lawyers for the dual US-British citizens argued that their continued detention in America severely hampers their ability to prepare for ongoing legal proceedings in Romania. Prosecutors maintained the brothers pose a flight risk due to their financial resources and access to multiple passports, despite defence claims that their online wealth is exaggerated. The brothers, who are supporters of US president Donald Trump, have been held at the Federal Detention Center in Miami since their arrest on 18 July.
