Man Arrested in Massachusetts Had 900 Grams In Pot Now 12 Months in Prison in SDNY

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, May 11 – Amable Aristy was arrested in Massachusetts on October 7, 2020, for participating in a drug sale and carrying a firearm.  

     On May 11, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Edgardo Ramos held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.  

 Aristy pleaded guilty to two Violations of Supervised Release: going to Massachusetts without consent, and having 900 grams of marijuana in his apartment, albeit of low potency. 

 While being transferred or "shuttlecocked" as his lawyer put it from Massachusetts back to the SDNY, Aristy contracted COVID.  

Judge Ramos, speaking sympathetically but calling Aristy one of a "small pantheon" of people he sees too frequently in this context, sentenced Aristy to 12 months in prison.

The case is US v. Aristy, 15-cr-505 (Ramos)
