COURTHOUSE,
Oct 25 – A man on parole who
got shot at Morris Avenue and
162nd Street in The Bronx in
January has now been indicted
as a felon in possession of a
gun.
On October
15 he pled not guilty in the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court, which Inner
City Press closely
covers.
The
shooting gave rise to a search
that the Complaint recounts
had been consented to in
advance, as a condition. A
Taurus pistol was found.
On July 11,
2025 Neil's counsel asked to
preclude the government from
cross-examining Neil about
certain prior convictions and
from arguing that he posed a
danger to anyone.
On July 16 Neil
pleaded guilty to Count 1, in
the SDNY Magistrates Court.
On October 24 his
Federal Defender wrote in that
"although not formally
docketed, I believe sentencing
is currently scheduled for
November 12... I request an
adjournment to January 26."
The case
is USA v. Neil, 24-cr-565
