SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 12 – Josue Torres has
been on supervised release,
and living in a homeless
shelter. In 2019 he got into
an altercation in Odyssey
House and was told he might
face discharge though he acted
in self-defense.
On
November 12 U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York Judge
Paul G. Gardephe held a
violation of supervised
release proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
There have been
more violations since, and on
November 12 Torres pleaded
guilty to five of them.
As sometimes
happens, the proposal was to
impose a prison sentence but
then no more supervised
release.
Torres' lawyer
suggested 90 days; Judge
Gardephe saying he had thought
closely about it imposed six
months - and no more
supervised release.
The case is, or
was, US v. Torres, 16-cr-85
(Gardephe)
