SDNY MAG COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Nov 17 - In
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York on November 17, a
detention or bond proceeding
was held by Magistrate Judge
Jennifer E. Willis on a
defendant charged conspiring
to transport 200 kilos of
narcotics cross-country to New
York.
Inner City
Press was there, the only
media in the Mag Court.
The
defendant, Christopher Burgos,
had retained counsel, who
argued that his client has a
job driving trucks in airports
and should be released.
The
prosecutor sought detention.
But Judge Willis ruled that if
a $100,000 personal
recognizance bond is signed by
three other people, including
two family members (possibly
including the wife from whom
Burgos was said by his lawyer
to be separated), he can be
released.
The case is US v.
Burgos, 22-cr-618 (Cronan /
Willis)
