SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 25 – In a four defendant
crack conspiracy case centered
around the Lambert Houses in
The Bronx, Malik Muhammad had
a bail hearing on September
14, 2023 before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Sarah L.
Cave. Inner City Press was
there.
The
Assistant US Attorney, after a
trial day that ended at 3 pm,
cited beyond the alleged crack
to a shooting he said Muhammad
had been picked out of a line
up for.
Judge Cave
said she had before her only
the crack indictment.
The AUSA
passed up to the bench a six
pack photo array and at first
asked the defense counsel not
see it as it had the witnesses
name. The defense said
"attorney-eyes only" and saw
it.
Judge Cave
ordered the defendant released
on $25,000 bond, subsequently
raised to $75,000.
Jump cut one year
to September 25, 2024 when on
co-defendant McIntosh, the US
Attorney's Office wrote in
asking for a sentence of 87
month, citing "his bringing
his six-month-old child to a
drug deal." Sentencing is set
for October 8.
Meanwhile,
Conyers is headed to trial,
with reply due October 26.
The wider case is
USA v. Conyers, et al.,
1:23-cr-457 (Clarke)
