SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Aug 12 – Lael Young was
arrested in March on the
charge of being a felon in
possession of ammunition. He
was released on $25,000 bond.
On July 30 he was
indicted on the same charge by
a grand jury ostensibly in
Manhattan. On
August 12 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Ronnie Abrams
held an arraignment on the
indictment. Inner City Press
covered it.
An issue that
arose, as it has in other SDNY
cases from US v. Balde
to US v. Schulte,
concerns how many of the grand
juror were actually physically
present.
In this case,
Assistant US Attorney Christy
Slavik that five of the grand
juror appeared virtually, "by
VTC." The issue will be
briefed.
The case is US v.
Young, 20-cr-391 (Abrams)
