EDNY COURTHOUSE,
August 9 – Thirteen
years after indicting Gloria
Rojas Valencia for links to
drug cartels in Mexico and
extraditing her, on August 9,
2022 the Eastern District of
New York prosecutors have a
"status conference" with
Valencia.
The docket
does not reflect what they
have done with her, or she
with them, in the intervening
decade.
She is free on
bond; the complaint spoke of
import of five kilograms and
more of cocaine. And EDNY US
Attorney's Office spokesman
John Marzulli on August 8,
2022 declared that he will not
answer Inner City Press'
questions or provide it with
information he provides to
others, including his former
employer, whether or not these
others report the information.
So much for due
process.
The August 9
proceeding was set before
District Judge Allyne Ross, by
phone. But at the appointed
time there was only hold
music, then 15 minutes later a
hang-up. The spokesman said,
without explanation, "The
status conference for Gloria
Rojas Valencia this morning
did in fact take place." So, a
fake-out? And no answers to
this: "the defendant is free
on bond. Please explain. And
why the sentencing mentioned
in Dkt 15 is not in the docket
on PACER, and no 'sealed
document' notation." So what
is up? And why are the direct
questions and appeal not
answered?
The case is US v.
Valencia, 09-cr-435 (EDNY).
Disclosure: This
was prepared without
meaningful assistance or
answers from Eastern District
of New York US Attorney's
Office spokesman John
Marzulli, ex-Daily
News, who without
hearing or appeal on August
8, 2022 decreed that
said "his" / EDNY's
publicly-funded information
will henceforth go to some
(including outside of New
York) but not others, or
other, like NYC-based Inner
City Press. We have requested
reconsideration, which has
been seen but not responded to
as of this writing. We'll have
more on this.
