SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 6 – Back on September 3
SDNY prosecutors announced
that "DANIEL KAMENSKY, the
founder and manager of New
York-based hedge fund Marble
Ridge Capital (“Marble
Ridge”), was charged in a
Complaint in Manhattan federal
court with securities fraud,
wire fraud, extortion, and
obstruction of justice."
Then they agreed
that Kamensky could be
released the same day on
$250,000
bond.
That same day in
the same Magistrates Court, a
man named Jamel Porter was
charged with shooting a gun in
The Bronx, and with
claustrophobia, was ordered
detained.
Inner City
Press could not live tweet
that one, being in a
collective stake out of
Kamensky- but noted that it
would "write a story later
despite the prosecutors not
publicizing the case and the
docket number not being
given."
And now here it
is: on October 6 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Richard M. Berman held a bail
hearing on Jamel Porter. Inner
City Press again covered it.
Since September 3
Porter has been in Essex
County Jail in New Jersey, at
first in lockdown 23 hours a
day. The US Attorney's Office
sought continued detention,
citing a shooting on 165th
Street and Bryant Avenue in
the Bronx. The Office said
that "GX-1 is one of the
surveillance videos showing
the defendant committing the
shooting."
Judge
Berman ordered continued
remand but asked Federal
Defenders to submit a proposed
order on medication. The next
conference was set for
December 10 and Speedy Trial
Act time was excluded.
The case is US v.
Porter, 20-cr-459 (Berman)
