SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 10 – Joshua Gumora was
charged with meth and ketamine
and having a gun as a felon.
In April,
2020 he applied to U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Vernon S. Broderick for
release from jail amid
COVID-19. He was
denied. On July 1
Gumora appeared before Judge
Broderick to plead guilty.
Inner City Press covered
it.
Gumora has a plea
agreement with the US
Attorney, for 46 to 57 months.
This means any sentence before
57 months, he generally could
not appeal from.
Judge Broderick
asked if he understood this -
he did - and named October 21
or 14 as the sentencing date.
Gumora's
lawyer said he wants it as
soon as possible, so October
14, 2020. Judge Broderick
said, see you on October 21.
Whereupon Gumora asked, Isn't
it the 14th? Yes, it was.
Jump cut to
Friday November 5, 2021.
Gumora was in shackles before
SDNY Magistrate Judge Sarah L.
Cave. His lawyer asked for
release, if he can find an
in-patient treatment facility.
Judge Cave
remaned Gumora but set another
conference, by phone, on
November 10. Inner City Press
covered that as well. No
facility had yet been found,
though no fault on the defense
lawyer, who has been making
calls. It is unclear if the
question of release remains
before Magistrate Judge Cave,
or District Judge Broderick.
The case is US v.
Gumora, 20-cr-144
(Broderick).
