follow up, Jan 30 - For
taking and transporting Ashley
Biden's diary from Florida to
New York, guilty pleas on no
notice were entered on August
25 by Robert Kurlander and
Aimee Harris. Inner City Press
was there, and live tweeted,
here and below.
Before U.S.
District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Magistrate Judge Sarah L.
Cave, first Kurlander then
Harris were brought out of the
holding cell by US Marshals,
and pled guilty. Inner City
Press' thread is here and below.
On January 29,
the day before her sentencing
scheduled for January 30,
Harris wrote in through
counsel to ask to appear by
video to request an
adjournment, saying she is
sick and has no childcare.
On January 30,
Inner City Press was in the
courtroom. At first, Harris
would not unmute; when she did
there was shouting, police
radio squawk, and a stand-off.
Thread:
OK - now at Aimee
Harris sentencing date for
taking Ashley Biden's diary
from Florida rental. There is
a Microsoft Teams big screen
here in the courtroom gallery.
Prosecutor,
speaking before Judge comes
in: If thete were
documentation supporting
adjournment.. But there's
not... She has not been
responding. Defense: I hear
you.
Clerk (into
Teams) Ms Harris, can you hear
me? Garbled response
All rise!
Defense: Ms Harris is joining
us from a hospital in Florida.
Judge: Ms Harris, please
unmute yourself. Defense: We
are texting her. Judge: Is she
respinding? Defense: No.
Judge: I order
you to unmute and speak...
Judge: Ms Harris, you are not
in compliance...
Defense: She has not responded
to either CJA lawyer... We
were told. She went to the ER
at 11:20 am... I don't think a
bench warrant should be issued
today
Judge: I
thought the father had custody
of the children AUSA: Ms
Harris has represented she
shares custody, but Pre Trial
Services has not been able to
confirm. We're skeptical.
Judge: This is unusual. There
is a public interest in moving
to sentencing.
Judge: We could
set a date for remote
sentencing. Harris: I'm
in an emergency room, there's
a woman screaming and police
coming. My mother was supposed
to come
Judge: We
may mute yourself. Harris: The
police are standing over the
woman... Thank you, your
Honor. Defense: I have an EDNY
trial starting Feb 12, if we
can do this before then AUSA:
She does not respond to Pre
Trial, they had to call her
mother.
AUSA: Ms Harris
is not working. We ask the
Court to request medical
documentation. Defense: She
does work... These are real
issues. I could give a date
tomorrow Judge: I am preparing
an order now
Judge: Ms Harris
is directed by Jan 31 at 5 pm
a date for sentencing and
documentation of today's E.R.
visit. Defense: She dropped...
she's back. Harris: I don't
know if the next 2 weeks are
possible Judge: More
delaywould require
extraordinary circumstances
Judge: Ms.
Harris, you must provide that
information to your lawyer.
And I hope you feel better.
Harris: Thank you Your Honor.
Adjourned.
