On Man Pleading Guilty to Drugs and Gun in Hunts Point US Asks for 4 Years Health Cited

by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 27 – A man charged with selling drugs, and having a gun as a felon, in the Hunts Point neighborhood of the Bronx pleaded guilty on March 20 before U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrate Judge Gary Stein. Inner City Press was there, the only media in the SDNY Mag Court. 

 The complaint has a photo of the gun. Remand pending sentencing was expected, notwithstanding the US v. Chavez decision.

But the AUSA showed mercy: the defendant is on dialysis, and is on the transplant list.

  Bail was continued.

On August 21, Hines' Federal Defender wrote in asking for no prison time, with medical information redacted.

On September 20, the US Attorney's Office wrote in asking for four years, "to be served at a BOP facility that can provide adequate medical care for the defendant."

On September 27 Federal Defenders wrote in, largely redacted, saying that a "sentence of imprisonment would be a potential death sentence." Sentencing is now set for October 10 at 3 pm.

The case is US v. Hines, 24-cr-162 (Gardephe)
