They are also accused of swindling Davidson, telling him that he was in danger and that they could offer protection.<br /><br />Davidson brought his computer, which had a virus, to Bedi in 2004 for service. Prosecutors originally said the man and woman swindled $6 million, but they now say it was closer to $20 million.<br /><br />A state judge refused to change Bedi's multimillion-dollar bail Monday. Assistant District Attorney Steven Vandervelden, who said Bedi should be held without bail, said there was strong evidence Bedi was planning to flee the country.<br /><br />Vandervelden said authorities found suitcases filled with $400,000 cash and that Bedi was planning to buy a home in Iceland, Ingvarsdottir's homeland.<br /><br />Both sides have until March 10 to work out a plea deal. If there is no resolution by March 11, the case will return to Mount Kisco court, and either a felony hearing could take place or the matter could be given to a grand jury for consideration of indictments, Vandervelden explained.</p>
