SDNY COURTHOUSE,
June 19 – Debbie Alvarez is 24
years old. On June 19 she was
up for sentencing for
trafficking 7 pounds of meth.
It would have carried a 10
year minimum sentence, but for
the safety valve.
U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge P. Kevin Castel held the
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Alvarez
said being in the MCC had
taught her a lesson. Her
lawyer asked that whatever
sentence she got be served
near San Diego, where she is
from.
Judge
Castel recounted that she'd
been addicted to meth since
age 16, that her father had
tried to get her into
treatment.
He sentenced her
to 24 months, with four years
of supervised release.
The case is US v.
Alvarez, 19-cr-831
(Castel).
