COURTHOUSE,
July 24 – A man who pled
guilty to drug charges in 2012
and was sentenced to 66 months
in prison is still under
supervised release in 2024.
On July 24 he was
ordered detained pending a
hearing set for August 17; he
complained that his life is
being ruined by supervision.
Inner City Press was
there.
The 2012
sentencing was by U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Richard J. Sullivan, in
Courtroom 21C of 500 Pearl
Street. It was in the same
room, before the same judge
(now on the Second Circuit and
sitting by designation) that
remand was ordered.
That's when the colloquy
began.
Canales
said, Since 1999, I have no
life, I have not been free.
Judge Sullivan referred to the
breach of trust that
violations of supervised
release are - a stop for
speeding by NYS Troopers,
trespassing charges by the
MTA. He has a job in New
Rochelle. Now I've
got to stop my financial
backing, Canales said. For my
other cases, all my evidence
is out there.
This
is a sentencing conversation,
Judge Sullivan said. I'll see
you at the hearing.
The case
is US v. Canales, 11-cr-676
(Sullivan)
