New York – New York attorneys Steve Zissou and Elizabeth E. Macedonio have been retained as defence counsel for alleged crime boss Christopher “Dudus” Coke.The attorneys were named in documents filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York yesterday, approximately a month after Coke was extradited to the United States to face drug and gun trafficking charges.Last month, a trio of top-level criminal lawyers had indicated that they would be representing Coke, but it was reported that that could not be finalised until it was proven that the money being used to pay them was not sourced illegally.
