SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 8 – Jonathan Pettiford
was convicted of bank fraud
and then out on supervised
release.
He was
found with 11 credit cards,
eight of them with different
names (and one, from Wells
Fargo, with a name not
matching that on its magnetic
strip).
On
September 8 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge P.
Kevin Castel held a
sentencing. Inner City Press
covered it.
Pettiford
spoke movingly for himself,
about wanting to get back to
his children, and businesses
he has run, from repairing
junker cars to, now, hair
weaves.
Judge
Castel sentenced him to six
months, minus time already
served.
The case is US v.
Pettiford, 17-cr-301 (Castel)
