SDNY MAG COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Nov 16 - A man
charged with murder in aid of
racketeering was brought
without fanfare into
Magistrates Court in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
on November 16.
Inner City
Press was
there, the
only media in
the Mag Court.
The case was
still sealed,
after the
arraignment.
But as said in
the courtroom,
the
defendant's
name is Lamar
Williams. He
wore a
sweatshirt
emblazoned "10
NINE 0" and
mouthed words
to his
significant
other in the
gallery.
His assigned Criminal Justice
Act lawyer said he consented
to detention - which he seemed
not to immediately agree with.
The AUSAs
- there were two of them -
said he had been arrested on
the morning of November 16, in
Manhattan.
After the
proceeding, their Office said
"On August 11, 2013, WILLIAMS
shot and killed Rasheed Barton
in the vicinity of East 174th
Street and Bronx River Avenue
in the Bronx, New York."
The case,
while still sealed, had been
"wheeled out" to District
Judge Buchwald. A control date
of December 7 was set. Inner
City Press will continue to
follow it. More on Patreon here
The case is US v.
Williams, 22-cr-600 (Buchwald)
