COURTHOUSE,
June 25 – A man facing
sentencing for illegal reentry
of the United States was up
for sentencing on June 24
before U.S. District Court for
the Southern District of New
York Judge Arun Subramanian.
Inner City Press was there,
the only media in the
courtroom.
The man
was listed in the docket under
one name, which he used when
posing as in Italian tourist,
while his Federal Defender
referred to him by another
name, saying he is from the
Dominican Republic.
The Federal
Defender expressed surprise at
the government's request for
18 months in prison, and said
there are cases at odds with
that. Judge Subramanian, after
a day presiding over the US v.
Sean Combs trial, re-set
sentencing for Friday at 5:30
pm (closing arguments in Combs
may stretch to 5; Inner City
Press is covering both).
Late on
June 24 the Federal Defender
submitted a list of
sentencings by Judges
Gardephe, Engelmayer, Oetken,
Broadrick, Torres, Carter and
Crotty (RIP). His
earlier letter alleged human
rights violations in the
Moshannon Valley Correctional
Center, an ICE-used
privately-run immigration
detention facility in
Philipsburg, PA.
On June 25, Judge
Subramanian docketed that "to
afford time for consideration
of the issues raised, the
sentencing will be rescheduled
to the earliest possible date
after defense counsel's
return." Letter by June 27 at
noon.
This case is
entitled USA v. Martinez,
1:25-cr-104 (Subramanian)
