SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 9 - In the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
on January 9, a sentencing was
held by Judge Gregory H. Woods
on a man for handing a loaded
gun to another.
Warren Wilder was
at the defense table, in
detention despite among other
communication once from a
nephew, initially directed to
Judge Kimba Wood, about his
medical issues and distrust of
his then-lawyer.
Now, the
US Attorney's Office was
asking for a sentence above
the guideline of 46 to 57
months, which his new lawyer
said was rare when he was at
the US Attorney's Office.
The US
sentencing memo quoted Wilder
to Morgan, "You did what you
did and he should have been in
the way" - he being a nephew.
Also, "You need a few dollars
to go somewhere, hit me, I'll
gitve it to you."
Judge Woods,
noting Wilder had lost a son
to gun violence and has more
than a dozen children,
sentenced him to 48 months.
The case is US v.
Wilder, 20-cr-543 (Woods)
