SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 24 – Agustin Marmolejos
pleaded guilty to being a
broker of both heroin and
fentanyl, and got an agreed
guideline of 70 to 87 months,
with the Government agreeing
he was eligible for the
so-called safety valve.
On
November 24 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Paul A. Engelmayer held his
sentencing. Inner City Press
covered it.
Marmolejos' lawyer noted that
where his client grew up in
the Dominican Republic, there
still is no indoor plumbing.
He said
Marmolejos had worked in Dave
& Busters and at a sushi
restaurant in Patterson, New
Jersey - and that he would be
deported.
Judge
Engelmayer went with the
recommendation of Probation,
36 months, noting that this
was Marmolejos' first offense
and imposing a search
condition on Supervised
release.
