SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 30 – Hector Valdez Turbi
served thirty years in the
Dominican Republic army.
Then he came to
the United States and sold a
kilo of heroin.
On July 30
he was up for sentencing
before U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge William H. Pauley
III. Inner City Press covered
it.
Judge Pauley called it "in my
years on the bench, a rather
unique situation."
The guidelines
provided for 57 to 71 months.
Judge Pauley sentenced him to
32 months, to be served near
Boston where his wife lives -
then deportation to the
Dominican Republic.
The case is US v.
Turbi, 19-cr-403 (Pauley)
