SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 13 –
An arrest warrant was signed
for one Jose Cruz on November
18, 2019 by U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Katherine H.
Parker, on charges of
conspiracy to distribute
cocaine, marijuana and
oxycodone.
Cruz was
arrested, and before SDNY
Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn
on November 20 Cruz agreed to
detention on consent, without
prejudice to a later
application for
bail.
On January 13,
nearly two months later, Cruz
applied for bail - to
Magistrate Judge Parker, who
has signed his arrest warrant.
In support of his application
his lawyer Richard Palma
submitted a lease of an
apartment on Marion Avenue in
The Bronx, and the salaries of
his father and sister in
support of his $150,000 bond.
Judge Parker ask his father,
seated in the Magistrates
Court gallery where Inner City
Press was the only media, to
stand up and come forward. She
asked, Will you be a court
appointed guardian, and tell
Pre Trial Services if your son
violates the conditions of his
release? Yes, the
father said.
Judge Parker
ordered Cruz released, and he
smiled over at his father as
the ruling was read out. There
are conditions, including a
visit of the Bronx apartment.
The case is US v. Cruz,
19-cr-821 (Wood /
Parker).
