SDNY MAG COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Nov 1 - In
the U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York on November 1, a
detention or bond proceeding
was held by Magistrate Judge
Barbara C. Moses on a
defendant in a federalized
jewelry store robbery case.
Inner City Press was there,
the only media in the Mag
Court.
The
defendant Malik Townsend was
put into state custody three
days after the robbery,
wearing a Rolex Day-Date watch
missing a diamond in a certain
location, "below where the
6:00 hour marker would be
located."
Citing the Hobbs Act, and the
interstate sales of the West
207th Street jewelry story,
the defendant was taken into
Federal custody on November 1
at 8:30 am.
Judge
Moses asked if his CJA lawyer
would be asking for release on
bond. He is already in state
custody, was the answer. "So
it would do much good." He was
detained on consent.
The case is
US v. Townsend, 22-mj-6683
(Moses)
