SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 5 – More than a
dozen defendants are charged
in a Hobbs Act robbery and
narcotics
conspiracy.
On June 14, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Alvin K. Hellerstein held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
With so
many defendants and counsel,
the roll-call took a long
time. It emerged that Levalle
Maitland, in pre-trial
detention in the Essex County
Correctional Facility, had not
been produced, and his lawyer
said he couldn't reach him. It
was decided to go
forward.
Three trial
dates were selected, splitting
the group or conspiracy in
two: March 28, 2022 for some,
May 16 for others, and June 20
for still others.
On January 5,
2022 Judge Hellerstein heard
oral argument on possibly
releasing co-defendant
Nathaniel Croskey on bond. But
Judge Hellerstein pointed out,
as the AUSA did, that Croskey
had fired a gun 10 times in
the air; he said that the
danger could not be addressed
even by GPS monitoring. But
the trial is coming.
The overall case
is US v. Spearman, et al.,
20-cr-631 (Hellerstein)
