SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 22 – Fernando Disla was
found in the lone bedroom of
Apartment 2 of 1278 Grant
Avenue in The Bronx on
November 21 with 50 grams of
crack, ziplock bags, digital
scales and $900 in
cash.
On
November 22 he was presented
and detained in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court past 7 pm on
November 22 with Inner City
Press the only media in the
courtroom. This too is an
exclusive report.
According to Assistant US
Attorney Thomas John Wright,
Desla has three felony
convictions and stands to be
sentenced in his case as a
Career Offender, with a
guideline sentence of 262 to
327 months.
Federal Defender Jonathan
Marvinny replied that he had
spent the three hours since he
met Disla speaking to the
mother of his 12 year old
daughter, who offered to put
him up although they are no
long together romantically.
Judge Sarah Netburn ordered
Disla detained but directed
Pre Trial Services to go visit
his ex-partner's apartment on
"McCombs Avenue" (McCombs Dam
Road?) in the Bronx to see if
it was be suitable to bail
Disla to.
Disla is a driver for Fresh
Direct, his lawyer said, and
believes the company will keep
him on as he fights or deals
with the charges. Given the
criminal history and the
potential guidelines sentence
it is not clear how these
charges could disappear. But
Inner City Press will stay on
the case.
While not
available when the court was
locked up at 7:30 pm, the case
is US v. Disla, 19-my-11033
(Netburn).
As the court was
locked, Judge Netburn said
that someone had just been
(Federally) arrested an hour
before, It was not made clear
if that presentment will be
later on November 22, or on
Saturday November 23. This
lack of notice is a lack of
transparency, on which Inner
City Press aims to have more.
