Richelle Holness, daughter of former Broward County Commissioner Dale Holness, made her initial appearance in Federal Court in Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday. Last month, Holness was charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and fraud in connection with emergency benefits-both felonies. On Wednesday, Magistrate Judge Panayotta Augustin-Birch set bail at $100,000 dollars. Holness was ordered to surrender her passport.

Holness waived her right to an indictment, instead her case will be based on an information filed by prosecutors.

Holness is represented by Larry Robert Handfield.

“Various people who have business dealings with SBF say that Barbara and James Fox Miller could also have easily aided their nephew in making his $250 million bond given their significant wealth. FOX Business has not been able to confirm the matter.”

Perhaps Barbara and Uncle Jimmy can answer this matter on their blog?
