SDNY COURTHOUSE,
March 28 – Kelvin Martinez
served a lengthy prison
sentence in a drug gang
case.
On
March 28, U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Richard M.
Berman held a termination of
supervised release proceeding.
Inner City Press covered
it.
Judge
Berman said he likes to do
such things on consent,
unanimously. Long-time
Assistant US Attorney Michael
D. Maimim when called on told
a story, that his son asked
him why criminals aren't just
locked up forward.
After
noting the separately of
powers, Maimim said that
Kelvin Martinez' case might
initially seem to call into
the question, why not lock up
forward. But Kelvin Martinez
has turned things around.
There was talk of
his work at the Hunts Point
market, and wanting to move to
Florida when a child
graduates.
Supervised release was
terminated early.
The case is
US v. Martinez, 09-cr-765
(Berman)
