SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 18 – Anthony Rosado
while under supervised release
dropped out of drug treatment
and
disappeared.
On
October 16 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Jed S. Rakoff
held a violation of supervised
release proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
Judge
Rakoff said that in his 25
years on the bench this was
the most depressing case he
had seen.
He had given
Rosado a chance, two chances,
but things just kept slipping
back. He sentenced him to
three more month, after which
no more supervision. Only you
can help yourself now, he
said.
Rosado
spoke, crying. He said
everyone was giving up on him.
Judge
Rakoff, who could have already
ended the proceeding, hadn't.
No, he told
Rosado, everyone hasn't given
up on you. I haven't give up
on you.
The case is US v.
Rosado, 17-cr-744 (Rakoff)
