COURT, Jan 10 - In the
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
on January 10, a detention or
bond proceeding was held by
Magistrate Judge Robert W.
Lehrburger on a man arrested
at 6 am that day for an armed
robbery in November 2020 in a
three defendant case in which
one defendant got probation,
the other said he would plead
guilty.
The US Attorney's
Office asked for detention.
The robbery was
for $80, the AUSA said.
The defendant,
Norman Washington, is living
in a homeless shelter. Inquiry
was made into how GPS could
work there, or stand-alone
monitoring. The latter was
arrived at, and a $25,000 bond
to be signed by one financial
responsible person within two
weeks. The District Judge, who
gave five years probation, $85
of restitution and 250 hours
of community service to a
co-defendant, has yet to set
the arraignment.
The case is US v.
Washington, 22-cr-45 (Gardephe
/ Lehrburger)
