The attorney cited Irinia Dilkinska’s role as a “loving wife and mother,” claiming time served was an appropriate sentence for her role in the OneCoin scheme.
An attorney representing Irinia Dilkinska, who worked as “head of legal and compliance” for OneCoin, requested she be given time served for her role in the crypto scheme.
In a March 20 filing in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, John Buza submitted a sentencing memorandum asking a judge for leniency for Dilkinska. In November 2023, the former OneCoin compliance chief pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering.
“I respectfully submits that any sentence more than time-served would be greater that necessary,” said Buza. “Ms. Dilkinska’s unique role in this case, together with the devastating situation she finds herself in all suggest that a sentence of time-served is appropriate.”
