01/12/2009 15 OPINION AND ORDER # 96937 as to Bernard L. Madoff. III. CONCLUSION: The Government seeks an order detaining Defendant Madoff prior to trial based on risk of flight and danger to community. On this matter, the Government has the burden of proof -- by a preponderance of the evidence with respect to the question of flight, and by clear and convincing evidence with respect to question of danger -- that there are no conditions which can be set to address these concerns. The Court finds that the Government has failed to meet its burden as to either ground. Accordingly, its motion is DENIED. SO ORDERED this 12th day of January 2009.
