SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 29 – Tarell McIlwain was
sentenced to 21 months in
prison in 2018 on gun charges.
Since that term and release,
he has had a number of
violation of supervised
release proceedings.
On November 15,
McIlwain was brought before
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Robert W.
Lehrburger on VOSR. Inner City
Press was there, the only
media in the SDNY Mag Court.
His
Federal Defender asked that he
be released on bond, saying
that he hadn't called
Probation because during a
delay in being admitted to
rehab, he had been assaulted
and robbed of his phone.
Judge
Lehrburger noted that the next
proceeding is in two days, and
ordered him detained.
On November 17
before Judge Engelmayer,
McIlwain pleaded not guilty,
with a "final hearing on
revocation of Supervised
Release" set for December 1 at
noon.
On November 29,
Federal Defenders wrote in and
said even the Government
agrees that supervised release
should end. They want jail
time and McIlwain does not.
But both agree, supervision
has not helped.
The case is
US v. McIlwain, 17-cr-385
(Engelmayer)
