SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 11 – Daurell Chavis was
charged with distributing
oxycodone and fentanyl in a
complaint before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Robert W.
Lehrburger on February
10.
The
complaint describes for
example the sale of 23
oxycodone pills for $440 on
Amsterdam Avenue in Manhattan.
On February 11,
after the arrest of Chavis and
his alleged co-conspirator
Timmie Sampson, the Federal
Defenders argued for Chavis'
release on bond. Assistant US
Attorney Ni Qian opposed
release.
Chavis, it
emerged, needs dialysis. After
a break, Judge Lehrburger
ordered him released that day,
with another signer due in a
week's time, and the Pre-Trial
Services' home visit put off
for the next
day.
Meanwhile Chavis'
co-defendent Timmie Sampson,
assigned a CJA lawyer, was
detained on consent. Was it
the dialysis? The case is US
v. Chavis, 20-mj-1519
(Lehrburger).
