SDNY COURTHOUSE,
May 8 –
Brooklyn rapper Dajahn McBean,
also known as Jeezy Mula, was
late to court on May 8.
The court was a
video proceeding before U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Katharine Polk Failla.
And McBean
wasn't late by choice. He is
in Westchester County Jail in
Valhalla, and the video
connection was late.
When he
got on, he pleaded not guilty
to bank fraud charged in a
case filed in 2020, but which
dates back to allegations in
2018 and early 2019.
Assistant
US Attorney Andrew Chan told
Judge Failla that of four
smartphone seized in January
2019, law enforcement has only
been able to crack one of
them.
Still, both
McBean and his co-defendant
William Valdez are purchasing
1-terabyte hard drive have the
discovery material burned onto
them.
Judge Failla said she will
inform Judge Richard J.
Sullivan, now on the Second
Circuit Court of Appeals but
who is still handling a McBean
case and a number of other
cases still on his docket
covered by Inner City Press,
of the day's proceedings. The
case is 20-cr-226, US v.
McBean (Failla).
