On March 17,
Inner City
Press was the
only media in
the Mag Court,
even as the
SDNY
prosecutors
put out a
press release
about the
case, with
short videos.
(Now here
and here)
Jason
Fleming's
Federal
Defender said
his client is
a good family
man, and has a
job repairing
NYCHA housing
projects.
Judge Parker
credited both,
but after
watching the
videos said
that home
detention
would not
protect the
community. She
ordered
Fleming
detained.
The
case is US v.
Fleming,
23-mj-2202
