SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Jan 27 – Joshua Gumora was up
for sentencing on November 25,
2020.
He complained
that there are drugs in the
prisons he has been. He said
he is a musician and does not
belong in
jail.
U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Vernon S. Broderick held the
sentencing, which Inner City
Press
covered.
Judge
Broderick made a point of
asking Assistant US Attorney
Daniel Wolf to be sure to made
the authorities aware of
issues in the sealed
pre-sentencing report, and in
the non-sealed sentencing
submission. (Inner City Press
is not publishing them here,
nor the name of a victim which
was said in connection with a
gun brandishing charge).
Similar
follow up was not requested on
Gumora's statements about
drugs in the prisons, even
during lockdown.
But Judge
Broderick imposed a year and a
day, so that Gumora can be
eligible for good time credit.
And in 2022 Judge
Broderick ordered: "ORDER as
to Joshua Gumora. IT IS HEREBY
ORDERED THAT, on March 28,
2022, the United States
Marshals Service shall produce
Joshua Gumora, Register Number
87617-054, to the cell block
on the fourth floor of the
Daniel Patrick Moynihan United
States Courthouse, to be
released to the United States
Probation Office. SO ORDERED.
(Signed by Judge Vernon S.
Broderick on 3/25/2022)."
Jump cut to
January 27, 2023, when Gumora
was brought back into SDNY
Magistrates Court. Inner City
Press was there. Gumora spoke
for himself, powerfully, how
his father died while he was
in custody and, troubling,
that he was raped in jail.
Magistrate
Judge Sarah L. Cave ordered:
"ORDER as to Joshua Gumora: A
renewed bail hearing is
scheduled for Monday, January
30, 2023 at 3:30 pm and will
take place in person, in
Courtroom 18A, 500 Pearl
Street, New York, New York.
(Bail Hearing set for
1/30/2023 at 03:30 PM in
Courtroom 18A, 500 Pearl
Street, New York, NY 10007
before Magistrate Judge Sarah
L Cave.) (Signed by Magistrate
Judge Sarah L Cave on
1/27/2023)." But
what will be done on Gumora's
allegations of rape in jail?
He is a whistleblower. Watch

The case is, or
was, US v. Gumora, 20-cr-144
(Broderick).
