SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Sept 15 – William Ramos was
sentenced to 84 months in
prison for armed robbery. That
was in 1984.
On
September 14, 2023 he was
brought by US Marshals before
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Sarah L. Cave,
seeking to be released.
Inner City Press was there.
The
Assistant US Attorney who has
had Ramos' case since 2014 was
there. Back in 2021 he
reported that the Bureau of
Prisons had been prepared to
transfer Ramos to FCI
Edgefield in South Carolina,
but COVID-19 restrictions
prevented it.
Judge Cave
noted that District Judge
Lorna G. Schofield had
remanded Ramos in August, and
said she would not reverse
that, but rather leave it up
to Judge Schofield. Ramos was
led out by the Marshals.
The case is US v.
Ramos, 14-cr-484 (Schofield /
Cave)
