SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 10 – Luperio Naranjo
was out on supervised release
when he traveled to Ecuador -
then stopped calling in to
Probation.
On
September 24 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Judge Jed S. Rakoff held a
Violation of Supervised
Release proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
The
Assistant US Attorney said the
Office could live with release
on bond. An address on 82nd
Street in Jackson Heights was
listed (Inner City Press is
not publishing it in full,
voluntarily).
But Judge Rakoff
emphasized Naranjo's not
calling in from Ecuador and
said there is a risk of
flight. Naranjo was ordered
detained, while his lawyer
Jason Foy said he was trying
to get documents from Ecuador.
He did, and
it worked.
On November 10,
before continuing with the
MiMedx criminal jury trial,
Judge Rakoff held Naranjo's
sentencing. Foy's documents
were accepted to show that
Naranjo's failure to return
from Ecuador was not willful
disrespect of the Court.
So Judge
Rakoff, showing mercy,
sentencing him to time served
- then left to get to the
MiMedx trial. The lawyers
called after, to dismissed
Specification One. Through the
deputy, it was done. It
worked.
The case is US v.
Naranjo et al., 13-cr-351
(Rakoff)
