SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 7 – Video
of the car-jacking of Tekashi
6ix9ine shown as evidence in
the trial of Aljermiah "Nuke"
Mack and Anthony "Harv"
Ellison which Inner City Press
put online on YouTube (here
with 83,000 views) has been
subject of a complaint,
YouTube informed Inner City
Press on October 19.
And in
further digging Inner City
Press has learned that at
least two weeks before the
December 18 re-scheduled
sentencing of 6ix9ine / Daniel
Hernandez, he is required by
his plea agreement to file
amendment tax returns and to
pay or agree to pay. (This
while others' plea deals, like
OneCoin's Konstantin Ignatov,
are withheld). Inner City
Press will stay on these
cases.
Many legal
questions are raised here. If
a song is playing when a crime
is committed, on video - as
here in the car of 69's drive
Jorge Rivera, can the video be
played? Or censored, even
partially or temporally - as
for now seems to be happening
with sentencing that have
followed the guilty verdicts
on Harv Ellison and Nuke Mack,
leading up to 6ix9ine's in
December?
The jury on
October 3 returned a mixed
verdict, see below. Daniel
Hernandez / Tekashi 6ix9ine
who testified for three days
against them is now set to be
sentenced on December 18 at 10
am, with the government's
submission including under
Section 5K1 due on December 11
or before. Inner
City Press
tweeted the
order here,
and the
underlying
submission
rules here.
On October 17
co-defendant
Jamel Jones was
set to be
sentenced, initially
at 2:30 pm,
then 9:45 am.
Inner City
Press inquired
into having a
live feed into
the SDNY Press
Room, as was
the case for
the sentencing
of Roland
Martin. But it
was not done.
At 9:45 am
Jamel Jones' family
members were in
Judge Engelmayer's
courtroom, but
not Jamel
Jones himself.
Later he was
brought in by
Marshals and
the proceeding
began. It
turned out he and his
lawyer had not
been given an
opportunity
to in writing
address what
the US
Attorney's
letter said was
shown at
trial, that
Jim Jones spoke
of "violating"
6ix9ine and
Jamel Jones
said "super
violate."
Inner
City Press tweeted,
as it did
during the
trial and the
Roland Martin
sentencing, here.
Then Judge
Engelmayer
said, Mr Smallman
tells me
someone is tweeting.
Who is it?
Inner City
Press
immediately
said, Me,
adding that
it had asked
for a live
feed into the
Press Room.
Judge Engelmayer
said that if
request
for live feed
are made they
are granted.
But it wasn't
in this
case. Inner
City Press
immediately
shut down its
phone,
power off. An
Assistant US
Attorney came
in and started
using her
phone, as has
always been
the case. She
was told to
turn it off.
Now will less
detailed
information we
report that
Judge Engelmayer
told Jamel Jones
that he,
unlike Roland
Martin, had
not renounced
Nine Trey.
That it was
too late in
life to use
lack of a
father figure
as an excuse.
(In fairness,
Judge Englemayer
later called
out the father
in the
gallery.)
Ultimately
Judge
Engelmayer
imposed a full
135 month sentence
on Jamel Jones,
more than 11 years.
While
some might not
like it
compared, many
white collar
criminals in
the SDNY are
given light or
time served sentences.
This is one of
the many reasons
that detailed,
real time
reporting of
these
sentencing
should be
encouraged,
not stopped
and penalized.
As Inner City
Press left the
courtroom, it
was asked for
its name and
business card
and was told
that an
"incident
report" will
be made. We'll
have more on
this.
More here.

Patreon here.
