SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 6 – Luis Aaron
Solano-Monroy was arrested in
December 2019 and charged with
transporting meth from
California to New York. He
pleaded not
guilty.
On July 6 U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge J. Paul Oetken held a
change of plea proceeding.
Inner City Press covered it.
The
proceeding started nearly an
hour late, for various
reasons. By the end there was
no video for the defendant but
he waived it.
Solano-Monroy said he and his
wife didn't know what they
were transporting, and didn't
want to ask. They were paid
$5,000. He wants to be
sentenced as soon as possible,
his lawyer said.
The
pre-sentencing report with be
expedited in two weeks, with
sentencing set for July 29.
The case is
Solano-Monroy, 20-cr-28
(Oetken)
