COURTHOUSE,
April 22 – Back on August 24,
2024 on Andrews Avenue in the
South Bronx three men "spun
the block" looking to
retaliate, for a stabbing,
against a fourth man - who
opened fire on that,
prosecutors say.
On
February 24, all four were
before U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Jessica G.L.
Clarke. Inner City Press was
there, thread:
All 4 brought
from MDC Brooklyn, 2 US
Marshals each.
Lead
defendant, handcuffed, pleads
not guilty. AUSA: 3 of these
defendants were spinning the
block in The Bronx looking to
retaliate for a stabbing - the
4th defendant opened fire on
them, next to a school.
Judge: On a
weekday?
AUSA: It was a
Saturday. AUSA: We have 50
gigs og discovery Judge: So
we'll reconvene in May.
Adjourned Why are
all four in the same case?
Will there be severance?
On February 25
the US Attorney's Office wrote
in opposed the bail
application of Rimel Mack,
complete with color photos of
gunfire - by the defendant,
and several redactions.

was granted $100,000 bail,
subject to verification of a
relative's home on Staten
Island and a third party
custodian.
On April 22
counsel for co-defendant Yomel
Mack argued for release on
bail. The AUSA handed up two
screenshots from a video; the
defense said they were within
four seconds of each other and
non-probative. Bail was
denied.
