The court denied Mr. Tanory's motion for review of denial of bond modification. The court stated that Mr. Tanory was a high flight risk and a danger to the community because of his significant criminal history and no condition or combination of conditions would reasonably assure Mr. Tanory's appearance. The court also concluded that Mr. Tanory's medical needs were addressed by the BOP and the BOP had taken adequate measures to mitigate the risks of transmission of COVID.
