taking and transporting Ashley

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.

On February 1,
Harris' lawyer wrote in to say
she needs to passport back in
order to travel to New York.
Then a sealed medical note
from Helix Urgent Care.
On February 5,
Inner City Press went. Thread:

All rise!
Judge: I have a consent to
proceed by video form - you
are in Florida? Harris: Yet.
Judge: This is not a
misdemeanor...
Harris'
lawyer: She has an appointment
to get a Florida ID. She can
come around March 14... Or
after March 21. Judge: Final
week of March?
Harris' lawyer:
Spring break runs through
March 24. Judge: Ms Harris,
March 25 to 28, are you
available? Harris: No.
[Harris
texts with her lawyer] Lawyer:
She can do it on March 27
Judge: At 2:30
pm. I will assess holistically
respect for the law, & the
PSR omissions. Frankly, the
failure to prepare, to obtain
a state ID, are matters of
concern. Adjourned
