SDNY COURTROOM
Exclusive, March 10 –
A Bronx man who served 51
months in prison for shooting
at a man on Brook Avenue after
a car accident has been
arrested and detained again,
for menacing two women in an
apartment building in the
South
Bronx.
On March 10, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn
held a detention proceeding.
Inner City Press covered it,
the only media in the Mag
Court.
In
the gallery were the man's
girlfriend and her three young
children. His Criminal Justice
Act lawyer told Judge Netburn
that the ammunition found in
the apartment he had been
living in may not have been
his.
The apartment,
she said, is under the name of
the mother of his
ex-girlfriend, who the lawyer
said is a cocaine addict and
"sleeps with a variety of men"
to feed her habit.
The CJA
lawyer said that for the armed
menacing, the Bronx District
Attorney has decided not to
prosecute.
But the
standard of proof in Federal
Violation of Supervised
Release proceedings is lower.
Judge Netburn
said that along with other
SDNY judges she has inquired
and found there is no
requirement for arraignment on
VOSRs. She also
said it was sad that the
children were in court to hear
this, that they were "a little
young."
Judge Netburn
ruled that the defendant will
not be released, and that he
can make his case before the
District Judge in his 2017
case, Judge Lorna G.
Schofield.
