SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 20 – Victor Peterson was
on supervised release when he
became a fugitive.
Casimir Griffin was on
supervised release when he was
charged with shooting a gun in
Newburgh, New
York.
On December 20 in U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York,
Second Circuit Court of
Appeals Judge Richard J.
Sullivan, sitting by
designation in his past
criminal case, held an
in-person VOSR proceeding with
Peterson. Inner City Press
covered in by the rightly
provided listen-only call-in
line.
In the
docket was Peterson's
handwritten letter about
addiction to crack cocaine.
Judge Sullivan
referenced it, but said that a
sentence at the top fo the
recommendation was necessary.
He said he had
intended to do more, but based
on representations at the
hearing, he arrested at nine
months, minus forty some days
Peterson has already served.
The six months of
in-patient drug treatment,
five years of supervised
release.
The case is
US v. Peterson, 17-cr-365
(Sullivan)
