SDNY MAG COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Sept 16 - In
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York on September 16, a series
of detention or bond
proceedings were held by
Magistrate Stuart D. Aaron.
Inner City Press was there,
the only media in the Mag
Court.
The U.S.
Marshals pursuit of
"Individual-1" for having cut
off his location monitor
bracelet lead them to an
apartment that was, in fact, a
drug mill.
The owner
of the apartment, addressed by
Judge Aaron as Diaz Mata (but
by his retained counsel with
the names reversed) had been
left out in the hallway of the
apartment building during the
arrest of Individual-1. He
went into another apartment,
that the AUSA implied might be
an attempt to flee.
Judge Aaron
did not credit that, but
conditioned the release on
$50,000 bond of Diaz Mata on a
home inspection by Pre-Trial
Services on Monday or at
latest Tuesday. A co-defendant
was released on September 16.
His hard-working CJA counsel
ensured he can continue with
his cleaning job in Wayne, New
Jersey.
Notably, the name
of Individual-1 was never
given in open court, although
it was shown one of the three
defense lawyers.
The case is US v.
Diaz Mata, 22-mj-7574 (Aaron)
