SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Aug 4 – A Desmond Brannon was
sentenced, for stealing checks
and paying homeless people to
cash altered versions of them,
to a year and a day by U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge William H. Pauley III.
That was in 2018.
On May 22,
2020 Judge Pauley held a
telephone proceeding with
Brannon and Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge Pauley
asked Brannon why he had not
followed up with Probation
about working for
FreshDirect.
Brannon explained
this in light of avoiding
COVID-19.
Judge Pauley
pointed out that other hard
working New Yorkers are riding
the subway and working.
Brannon said that
he is working, then that it is
an unpaid internship. Judge
Pauley expressed scepticism,
then asked Brannon why he was
snickering.
Brannon said it was a cough.
The next
conference was held on August
4, and Inner City Press again
covered it. It emerged that
the name is Desmond Scott, the
case was done "under an
a/k/a." Judge Pauley again
said that employment is
important. Brannon / Scott
said he is still concerned
about taking the subway, but
will do it to show Judge
Pauley something. Another
conference was set for August
31. The case is US v. Brannon,
18-cr-358 (Pauley).
