SDNY COURTHOUSE,
April 21 – After the
president of Honduras' brother
Tony Hernandez was convicted
of drug trafficking and
sentenced to life plus thirty
years, on April 21 the
ex-president himself, Juan
Orlando Hernandez, was
extradited to the United
States.
Inner City
Press which covered the trials
of Tony Hernandez and Giovanny
Fuentes Ramirez immediatley published
the unsealed JOH indictment,
which was returned on January
27, 2022 but left under
seal.
The
indictment is under the same
docket number of Tony
Hernandez, 15-cr-379, before
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge P. Kevin Castel.
Later on April
21, a lawyer filed a notice of
appearance to represent JOH:
Raymond L. Colon of 131
Pugsley Avenue in The Bronx,
with 30 other cases over the
years in SDNY.
Previously,
Inner City Press asked UN
Secretary General Antonio
Guterres why he supported
already-disgraced JOH in
helping to steal his second
election, by sending a four
person panel with no read-out.
There has still
been no answer from UN
Spokesman Stephane Dujarric -
but Guterres' head of media
access Melissa Fleming has
banned Inner City Press,
ongoing.
On April 21 Inner
City Press posted vlogs in English
and Spanish,
and streamed the DEA press
statement from DC, here.
We will cover JOH's
presentment, arraignment and
trial.
The case is US v.
Juan Orlando Hernandez,
15-cr-379 (Castel).
