Man on SDNY Supervised Release Fell Back Into Drugs During Lockdown Now 58 Days

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

SDNY COURTHOUSE, March 1 – Johnny Veale was sentenced in 2018 to 21 months in prison as a felon in possession of a firearm.

 Then while out on supervised release, he fell off the wagon and started taking drugs. He was arrested and detained on February 10.  

   On March 1, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge P. Kevin Castel held a sentencing. Inner City Press covered it.  

Veale said that during the COVID-19 lockdowns, when he was told he didn't have to or couldn't come in person, he started getting high again. He said it was entirely his fault.

  Judge Castel thanked him for his candor.

 He sentenced him to 58 days, that is, until April 9, so he will also pass through quarantine.

The case is US v. Veale, 18-cr-134 (Castel)
