SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 16 – Jermaine Dore was
sentenced to 65 years in
prison for a robbery
conspiracy that resulted in a
death.
Then court
decisions by the Supreme Court
and Second Circuit required
that he be resentenced.
On
January 15, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York sitting
Judge (now on the Second
Circuit) Richard J. Sullivan
held an in-person
resentencing. Inner City Press
covered it.
AUSA Michael
Maimin and Judge Sullivan
spoke about Sixth and Seventh
Circuit precedents.
Then Maimin
explained again some specifics
of what Dore had done,
including kidnapping a man
coming out of a mosque, taking
him to his home and robbing
it.
Dore's CJA
lawyer said he had been trying
to better himself in jail even
with little prospect of being
released.
But Maimin said
he had flushed something down
the toilet while his cell was
being searched.
Judge
Sullivan re-sentenced him, on
a slightly different theory,
to the same 65 years. Dore
said, See you in hell, you
might as well kill me. It was
over.
The case is US v.
Dore, 12-cr-45 (Sullivan)
