SDNY EXCLUSIVE,
Nov 5 – Many
people are
killed by
fentanyl these
days.
On
the morning of
July 14, 2023
Inner City
Press covered
the sentencing
to three years
of a man for
causing a
deadly
overdose of
another, Peter
Krasniqi. Only
his family,
and Inner City
Press, were in
the courtroom
gallery.
Later
on July 14, a
20-year old
woman charged
with causing
the death of
the grandson
of actor
Robert De Niro
was held, with
significantly
more interest.
As in the
first case,
Inner City
Press was
there, thread
Since
then, with no
docketing of
this defendant
Sophia Marks
being
released,
there are 16
"Sealed
Documents
Placed in
Vault."
On
October 30,
Inner City
Press learned
the 16
defendants
would be
presented in
SDNY Mag
court(s) under
indictment
25-cr-484 -
which is now
on Patreon here
On
November 4 one
more defendant
was presented
and detained,
on consent
without
prejudice.
On
November 5 the
many
defendants in
US v. Brown
were brought
into Judge
Cote's
courtroom.
Inner City
Press was
there. While
the US
Marshals say
that no
criminal trial
with more than
four
defendants is
possible
during the
shutdown,
Judge Cote set
a trial date
for all by one
on September
14, 2026.
The
first case is
US v. Marks,
23-mj-5518

The
next case is
