SDNY COURTROOM,
Feb 8 – In the U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York on
February 8, a detention or
release proceeding was held by
Magistrate Judge Debra C.
Freeman on a defendant brought
in on a violation of
supervised release.
Inner City
Press was in the the Mag Court
awaiting another case, but
took notice when defendant
Richard Hill's lawyer, only
for purposes of presentment,
said he was not arguing for
release on bail.
He said
the argument would be made on
February 28 before District
Judge Gregory H. Woods - three
weeks from now.
What is
the violation of supervised
release Hill is charged with?
Failure to report to
probation.
Hill was
initially convicted as the
seventh defendant in a
22-defendant crack conspiracy
case.
On July
30, 2021, his Criminal Justice
Act lawyer wrote to Judge
Woods that "Hill's life has
been riled with neglect,
trauma and drug abuse which,
by the time he was a teenager,
triggered his own li[f]e-long
addictions. Now age 31, he is
at a crossroad."
And he
will spend three weeks in the
MDC or Essex, for failure to
report.
The case is US v.
Hill, 16-cr-396 (Woods).
