Charlie Javice faces up to 30 years for tricking JPMorgan into buying her fintech startup for $175M. After Friday's verdict, her lawyers argued wearing an ankle monitor would ruin her Pilates career.
Convicted JPMorgan fraudster Charlie Javice will have a tougher time teaching Pilates, at least for now.
Wearing the bulky device once again — as she had for several weeks before a November decision granting its removal — would be a severe impediment to her career as a Pilates instructor, Sullivan said.
"To have your legs in the air and the monitor going up and down on your leg — it is a significant encumbrance," Sullivan told the judge. The lawyer held both arms aloft and waved them back and forth to demonstrate as he stood at a podium.
While wearing an ankle bracelet previously, she was only able to teach lessons briefly, and for family and friends, Sullivan said.
Her classes require "demanding physical movement and full flexibility and range of motion, specifically around her feet and ankles," her lawyers argued in court filings earlier Tuesday.
"Ms. Javice's services are sought after because her instruction is particularly challenging and dynamic," the filing said.
US District Judge Alvin Hellerstein ruled Tuesday that Charlie Javice must wear a GPS ankle monitor in the weeks prior to her August sentencing, at which she faces a possible maximum of 30 years in prison.
A jury found on Friday that Javice used fake data to trick JPMorgan, the country's largest bank, into believing her website had gathered the names and other personal data of more than 4 million students. The bank had hoped to market checking accounts and credit cards to these students, but later found that Javice had data for fewer than 300,000 of them.

She scammed Morgan - Chase in September 2021...... Right in the middle of the C19 scamdemic
Too bad. Don’t break the law, next time
She scammed Chase by hiring a hacker type to make up data that showed she had 4 million student customers. When she had only 300,000
Morgan Chase accepted thus data. I wonder what happened to the 173 million dollars she scammed?
Why is she not locked up?
put a chip in her
One of my cop shows had them tracing the ankle bracelet’s movement on a city building and street map on the computer screen showing the perp was outside the allowed area, and then closed in to find a cat walking around with the monitor.
Grin and bear it bitch!
“To have your legs in the air and the monitor going up and down on your leg — it is a significant encumbrance,” Sullivan told the judge.”
I seem to be in first with “In the 1990s Kamala Harris was red faced in anger and shouted to the judge that this will put me out of politics.”
20 to life at hard labor. Shoot her when she tries to escape.
LOL. Complaining about an ankle monitor. You might want to ponder that 30 year prison sentence you are facing, honey.
Kiddie version....
Can you imagine if the company had tried to be inclusive and had put a black child’s picture on the cover?
But for many kids now of all races, they grew up with criminal parents.

This witch is going to run.
She can teach it in prison, though sans equipment.
While she was an idiot, because she could have realized 13 mil for what she had legitimately, I’m not shedding any tears for her scamming a company that scammed us into a federal reserve system, scammed us out of 116,516 young men to collect on war loans to England and France 108 years ago, and facilitated a real estate fiasco that nearly brought down the world economy in 2008/9 and left us with nationwide artificially inflated housing still...
America is itself a free range prison. The smart phone is your ankle monitor. Stop and look people!
I was just going to say, she is facing 30 years in the hoosegow, and she is worried about an ankle monitor? She needs to get some proper perspective here.
Put an equal weight on the other leg and, Voila! Resistance training!
