US Court Defers OneCoin Co-Mastermind’s Sentencing

The sentencing of Konstantin Ignatov, an alleged key player of OneCoin crypto scam, has been adjourned again with no clear future date.

Ignatov’s sentencing was scheduled for Wednesday, but the US attorney requested the court to move his sentencing by four months as his cooperation process with the prosecutors is still ongoing.

“Because the defendant’s cooperation is not yet complete, the Government respectfully requests that the sentencing control date be adjourned for approximately four months,” Audrey Strauss, acting US attorney, noted.

Inner City Press pointed out that the publicly available court calendar shows that the New York court judge is taking another case at the previously given timeslot to Ignatov’s sentencing, meaning the plea has been granted.
