COURTHOUSE,
April 30 – A Bronx man out on
supervised release after
serving 38 months in prison in
a narcotics conspiracy was
arrested in The Bronx and
charged with gun possession on
October 11, 2023. He had been
in Federal detention since
October 13.
On
November 24, his lawyer filed
with U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York Judge
George B.
Daniels a
link to an Instagram video of
the arrest, complete with an
NYPD officer repeatedly
punching him in the face.
Inner City Press found the
filing and followed the link.
On December 29
for the lead named defendant
in the case, defense counsel
recounted the death in a fight
by a Kennedy Fried Chicken on
Webster Avenue in The Bronx -
the defendant shot his friend
Jason Parris, counsel says,
trying to save him from a gang
beat-down. He is requesting 84
months.
On January 12 the
US Attorney's Office wrote in
and asked for 20 years for
Goodman.
On January 16,
Goodman was sentenced to 12
years or 144 months in prison,
with Otisville requested and
recommended.
On January 23,
co-defendant Augustus Ingram
got 50 months.
On April 22,
co-defendant Willie Evans
asked for a sentence
"substantially below the
stipulated Guidelines range"
on April 30 at 10:30 am.
The US Attorney's
Office wrote in on April 26
asking for 360 months or 30
years on Evans.
On April 30,
Evans got 20 years: "WILLIE
EVANS was sentenced today by
U.S. District Judge George B.
Daniels to 20 years in prison
for racketeering offenses."
The case is US v.
Goodman, et al., 20-cr-57
