SDNY COURT
Exclusive, July 5 – Saadah
Masoud has been indicted for
punching and dragging Matt
Greenman, who was wearing a
flag of Israel, on 42nd Street
near the United
Nations.
On July 5,
2022 U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Denise L. Cote held
the arraignment of Masoud on
Federal hate crimes charges.
Inner City Press covered it,
as the only media in the
courtroom. (Tweets here)
Assistant
US Attorney Lindsey Keenan
told Judge Cote that Masoud,
after his arrest, said upon
being bring to the courthouse,
"All this for one Jew?"
Judge Cote
set a February 21, 2023 trial
date. Masoud's Criminal
Justice Act (publicly-funded)
lawyer said while Masoud is on
home confinement he wants to
travel to Florida for a
wedding on July 7.
AUSA
Keenan replied that her Office
and Pre-Trial Services
previously opposed a social
event permission for Masoud
and would likely oppose this.
She added that her review of
social media found
inconsistencies in Masoud's
statements about his
employment.
Masoud's
lawyer said his client has a
moving business. Judge Cote
asked if he files taxes. The
response was that the business
is cash, and has no website
keeping track of what is moved
for whom.
The request
to travel to Florida was filed
and quickly denied.
The case
is US v. Masoud, 22-cr-359
(Cote)
