SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 13 –
Alberto Borges is 31 and came
up for sentencing on November
12.
U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Valerie E. Caproni held the
sentencing. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge
Caproni heard about, then
asked about, a series of
violent assaults including in
jail. Borges' lawyer said he
had to do it, to not back
down. Borges when asked
declined to speak.
Judge Caproni
said she had never seen a
record like this, and
sentenced Borges to 17 years
in prison, to be followed by
five years of supervised
release.
The case is US v.
Borges, 19-cr-862 (Caproni)
