SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 11 – Lionel Moore
pleaded guilty to 100 grams of
heroin in 2018 and has been in
USP Lewisberg since. He filed
his own pro se motion for
compassionate release, to
which assigned counsel has
supplemented.
On October 9 U.S.
District Judge for the
Southern District of New York
Andrew Carter held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Moore is
40 years old. In 2004 he was
shot multiple times in the
neck and abdomen.
Judge Carter listened and
expressed sympathy, but ruled
that it did not constitute
extraordinary and compelling
circumstances. He denied the
application for compassionate
release.
The case is US v.
Moore, 17-cr-274
(Carter)
