Patterson Told ACS His Daughter Was Being Sex Trafficked While Sexting Her Gets Conflicted CJA

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Decrypt - LightRead - Honduras - Source

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Feb 21 -- Maurice Patterson pled guilty in January 2011 to selling 50 grams and more of crack before Judge Jed S. Rakoff the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

   He reappeared nine years later on February 21, 2020 in a Violation of Supervised Release hearing that lasted until 7 pm, also before Judge Rakoff. Inner City Press was the only media there as Patterson's text messages to his daughter telling her to s*ck his d*ck were described.   

But this time Maurice Patterson had a white show law firm lawyer, a sometime CJA, Rita Glavin of Seward & Kissel. And with a team of three others including Brian Paul Maloney and Sareen Karla Armani, she made arguments Judge Rakoff called interesting, including that harassment in the second degree -- that is, telling ASC the mother of his daughter was sex trafficking her -- is not in fact a crime for purposes of the Federal Supervised Release provisions.  

   A written submission has been requested of the government on that, while Glavin traveled to the Bahamas for some type of legal conference. Inner City Press in 2019 inquired, including directly to Glavin, how it was possible to represent the government in one case in the SDNY and those charged by the government in other cases, even if they waive it.   Apparently David Patton of Federal Defenders has said that merely reciting the conflict of interest, and having it dismissed by judges, is enough. But some conflicts are just conflict. Still, we will continue to cover this interesting case. It is US v. Patterson, 10-cr-94 (Rakoff).
