Filippi was charged with felony conspiracy, and released on a $250,000 personal recognizance bond. He had to surrender his passport, and his travel was restricted to the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York — essentially New York City, Westchester and Long Island. He was outfitted with an electronic monitoring bracelet to make sure he didn’t try to flee.
A few weeks later, he asked a judge for permission to go to Atlantic City for 10 days in November and Las Vegas for two weeks in early December, court records show.
“This is his job. This is how he earns a living,” his lawyer, Jeremy Schneider, told the Daily News on Thursday. “Those are the places he works.”
