I don't think HT is that stupid
Fishman’s “trusted clients” statement appeared in a January 5, 2019 email from Seth Fishman to Lisa Giannelli listing products offered by Equestology. The relevant entry stated:
“BB3 . . . would only let trusted clients have this.”
The email was admitted as Government Exhibit 309 (GX 309) in the federal prosecution, United States v. Lisa Giannelli, S6 20 Cr. 160 (MKV), Southern District of New York.
During Fishman’s trial on January 25, 2022, federal prosecutor Sarah Mortazavi had FDA veterinary medical officer Dr. Jean Bowman read that entry to the jury.
The strongest primary-document reference is the government’s September 1, 2022 sentencing submission for Giannelli:
United States v. Lisa Giannelli
Case No. 1:20-cr-00160-MKV
ECF Document 919
Page 2
Citation: GX 309
That government filing quotes GX 309 directly and also cites GX 319J, in which Fishman reportedly advised Giannelli to “stay low key” regarding BB3.
