EDNY COURTHOUSE,
Aug 17 – For the murder of
Jason Mizell (Jam Master Jay
of Run-DMC), Karl Jordan Jr.
was arraigned by U.S. District
Court for the Eastern District
of New York Magistrate Judge
Lois Bloom on August 17. Inner
City Press live tweeted
it: Judge Bloom: Mr.
Jordan, you have been indicted
by a grand jury on August 13
on 10 counts. You have filed a
financial affidavit that you
were not working and have four
dependents. Your CJA lawyer is
an esteemed member of the
panel, including on the
capital panel Do you
consent to appear by video,
Mr. Jordan? Jordan:
Michael, do I consent?
Michael Hueston, CJA: Yes, we
do. You do. AUSA: The
government is seeking a
permanent order of detention
pending trial. It's a
presumption case. US
Attorney's Office describes
fatal shooting of Mizell
inside the victim’s recording
studio in Hollis,
Queens. Jordan is charged with
several additional narcotics
distribution counts. In 2003
Jordan was charged on guns.
And 2017, with drugs. AUSA:
This case carries the
possibility of the death
penalty. So there is a
compelling risk of
flight. Judge Bloom: I
wanted you to hear it, Mr.
Jordan, since you haven't
gotten a copy of the US
detention memo. It is not your
CJA lawyer's job to rebut this
today. CJA lawyer: We
are going to consent to
detention with leave to submit
a bail application
later. Judge Bloom: Your
lawyer knows how to get it on
the court's calendar. The
overall case, next date in
Sept 17, 11 am. Anything more?
No? We are adjourned.
