SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 27 – Martin Conception is
on trial for child sex
trafficking.
On July
27, 2022 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge J. Paul Oetken
was presiding over the trial.
Inner City Press went and
covered it.
On the
stand was a Ms. Rodriguez, who
testified she was 16 years old
when she was prostituted out
by a trio including Concepcion
a/k/a Tito.
Judge Oekten
admonished some of those in
the courtroom gallery for
gesticulating during the
testimony and said if it
continued, they would be
removed.
The events
described took place in The
Bronx around 184th Street and
Creston Avenue, and Valentine
Avenue. Tito got shot, but did
not go to the hospital, at
least not immediately.
Concepcion's defense counsel
repeatedly asked Rodriguez
about her previous
prostitution, and how many
months she had been missing.
A long sidebar in
the robing room ensued.
The case is US v.
Concepcion, 19-cr-883
(Oetken)
