COURTHOUSE,
Feb 19 – A defendant charged
with shooting a man in The
Bronx with a gun he stored in
a bodega had a suppression
hearing on February 18 before
U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald.
Inner City Press was there,
the only media in the
courtroom.
The SDNY
prosecutors put Officer Ramos
on the stand, to identify the
defendant in a video.
He said he'd also
been shown a video by the
bodega owner, in his warehouse
nearby "in the confines of the
41st Precinct," once known as
Fort Apache.
Defense
counsel argued that if the
officer had seen the video, he
would have had probable cause
to arrest the defendant
earlier. The judge seemed
skeptical.
The case
is USA v. Richardson,
1:23-cr-439 (Buchwald)
