SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 14 – Damien Matthews is
charged with the armed robbery
of a store at 1594 York Avenue
in Manhattan. But there are
issues about how the grand
jury that indicted him on
August 25 was selected.
On
September 14 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Mary Kay Vyskocil held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Federal
Defenders, saying many
residents of the SDNY were and
are practicing social
distancing due to the COVID-19
pandemic, asked for records
about the Master and Qualified
Jury Wheels, as in US v. Balde
(and US v. Schulte, etc).
Recently
Inner City Press asked Acting
US Attorney Audrey Strauss if
Columbia University ex doctor
Robert Hadden was indicted by
a virtual or in person grand
jury. In person, she seemed to
say.
Judge
Vyskocil took note of the Jury
Wheels requests, and put the
next date for November 4.
The case is US v.
Matthews, 20-cr-430-MKV
(Vyskocil)
