SDNY COURTHOUSE,
July 15 – Francis Guzman
Sanchez was charged in a
narcotics
conspiracy.
On October
27, 2021 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Sidney H. Stein
scheduled a change of plea
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
When it came time
to allocute, the defendant
said what he had done wrong
was to allow the conspiracy to
put a company in his
name.
Judge Stein
asked where it had all
happened, for purposes of
venue. Manhattan?
No, the defendant said.
The
Assistant US Attorney said he
had driven a truck through the
Bronx.
Again, the
defendant said No. Judge Stein
indicated he would not be
accepting the plea.
But a breakout
meeting was held, and the line
went dead.
The plea
was accepted, and then
sentence imposed.
In July 2024 -
docketed on July 15 - Sanchez
wrote to Judge Stein seeking a
two level reduction of
sentence under 3582(c)(2)
The case is
US v. Sanchez et al.,
20-cr-326 (Stein)
