SDNY COURTHOUSE,
March 13 – Jingdong Jiang was
changed with a role in
laundering drug money.
The complaint
described a proposal to
launder $300,000, using the
serial number of a one dollar
bill to prove identity.
On March 12, U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Denise L. Cote held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Jiang was
pleading guilt, to a guideline
of 21 to 27 month, and
allocuted more "more than
$10,000" in narcotics
proceeds.
The sentencing
was set for June 18.
In fact, it took
place on June 22, and Inner
City Press covered it. Jiang
asked for mercy, mentioning
his wife. Judge Cote called it
a serious crime and sentenced
him to a year and a day (to
allow for "good time" sentence
reduction), and three years of
supervised release. He is to
self-surrender on July 30 at 2
pm.
The case is USA
v. Jiang, 20-mj-5191 (Cote)
