  A spokeswoman for Huffman, Elizabeth Much, told USA TODAY she had "no information to share at this time."
  They can't "just assume they are involved in the illicit activity because they are members of the same family, company or organization," Dietl told USA TODAY. "Investigating complicated fraud matters demands looking at each person's independent actions and their actions in collaboration with the larger group."
  Huffman appeared in court on Tuesday, and a judge released her on $250,000 bail but said she must restrict her travel to the continental United States. Houghlin is due in court on Wednesday.
  Because it's a high-profile case, the accused may have to post bond. "But it's very unlikely for a bond to be set at such a level that anybody will stay in custody because they can't make bail," Cohen said.
  Because the accused appear to be otherwise upstanding members of the community who are unlikely to flee, Cohen said, "they may just be released on their own recognizance and not have to pay anything in terms of bail."
