EDNY COURTHOUSE,
August 12v– What is it
with the Eastern District of
New York prosecutors, or at
least their press office?
On August
12, during a guilty plea
proceeding by Patrick Tidalgo
on one count each of narcotics
and money laundering, EDNY
Assistant US Attorney Andrew
David Wang was asked about the
Sentencing Guidelines.
He said, at
least candid, that he was not
sure. Inner City Press,
covering the proceeding, tweeted:
OK - now an EDNY guilty plea
(to 5 kilos of coke &
money laundering). AUSA Andrew
Wang says sentencing guideline
on the 1st is 70 - 97 months
but that he's not sure how the
money laundering guideline
impacts that. It'd be nice if
@EDNYnews @Marzullij could
answer."
But he did
not. In fact, as the Court was
informed, this spokesman last
told Inner City Press it can
only get answers from the
Office of Breon Peace in press
releases on the EDNY website.
But this whole week, there
have only been two press
releases, none on this.
So what are
the Guidelines? Not only the
Sentencing Guidelines on this
defendant, but for DOJ Public
Information Officers?
This particular
case is US v. Tidalgo,
19-cr-374
Ongoing
disclosure: This report was
prepared without any
assistance or answers from
Eastern District of New York
US Attorney's Office spokesman
John Marzulli, ex-Daily
News, who without
hearing or ruling on an August
9 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. As noted, we have
requested reconsideration.
We'll have more on this.
