EXCLUSIVE, Jan 5 - In

charged with narcotics

Mrabet was in a white t-shirt;
he had been arrested at 6 in
the morning. He consented to
detention without prejudice.
On May 11, 2023,
Mrabet appeared before the
assigned District Judge, Jed
S. Rakoff. Trial was set for
August 8, and discovery
production to the MDC was
discussed.
Then Mrabet's
counsel asked for release on
bail. The AUSA replied that
Mrabet had 10 kilos of meth
and seven phones; 20 arrests,
four felonies.
Judge Rakoff said
it seemed clear, but for the
increasing danger in the MDC.
He said in some of his cases,
defendants have been moved to
other facilities. No
commitment to make that
recommendation was made by the
AUSA. Mrabet remains detained.
The case is US v.
Mrabet, 23-cr-69 (Rakoff)
