SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 27 – A man charged with
robbing a bank branch on Canal
and Lafayette Street in
Chinatown, then shooting a
victim in the Union Square
subway station on 14th Street,
was presented in the U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrates Court on October
27, before Magistrate Judge
Barbara C. Moses. She detained
him pending trial.
Inner City
Press closely covered Judge
Moses "bail or jail" decisions
on October 27 - the release
of Roland Miller charged with
drugs in Rochester, the detention
of a Connecticut motorcycle
mechanic found with two Glocks
trying to buy 15 kilos of
cocaine.
On Bailey
the prosecutors announced
"DAMON BAILEY was arrested
yesterday at Union Square
subway station, one day after
allegedly shooting a fellow
train rider during rush hour
at that station. Today
BAILEY was charged in a
criminal Complaint with being
a felon in possession of a
firearm in connection with the
subway shooting and an
attempted deli robbery, with
robbing two banks in Manhattan
[Chase Bank and TD Bank] at
gunpoint on October 25, 2021
and October 26, 2021, and with
brandishing a firearm in
connection with those bank
robberies. BAILEY was
presented today in Manhattan
federal court before United
States Magistrate Judge
Barbara Moses." So were these
other men.
The larger
of the two men was said to be
addicted to heroin, and named
in only one of the four
counts. He was ordered
released into a residential
drug program.
He barely
spoke, even to his lawyer. He
did not, as Bailey has, says "Your
Honor, that’s some bullsh*t,They
made that s–t up. Where they
get this sh*t from? I did not
rob nobody for no cellphone.
The sh*t with the cellphone is
a lie." h/t
“Mr. Bailey, be quiet,” Judge
Moses said. Later on she told
subtle jokes, like about a
defendant getting along with
this ex-girlfriend perhaps
indicating risk of flight.
The second man,
the lead defendant though
smaller and younger, was said
to be motorcycle repairman in
Connecticut.
But as Judge Moses
said, he had two Glocks and a
previous charge of fleeing the
police. He was ordered
detained. His CJA lawyer asked
that he be put in Essex, given
a recent death in the MDC in
Brooklyn he alluded to. (Scheinin?)
Detailed
medical orders were taken and
the Mag court day (evening)
was over.
This case is US
v. Bailey, 21-mj-10305 (Moses)
