SDNY COURT
EXCLUSIVE, Sept 5 – Jorge
Arias was
indicted and
detained in
2014 in a
drugs and guns
case.
He
had been out
on supervised
release, when
in 2020 while
on drugs he
broke a
neighbor's
Christmas
lights with a
pool cue and
"the
homeowner's
two year old
son suffered a
laceration to
his
scalp."
On
July 7, 2023,
Arias was
before U.S.
District Court
for the
Southern
District of
New York
Magistrate
Judge Jennifer
E. Lewis.
Inner City
Press was
there, the
only media in
the Mag Court.
Arias had left
the halfway
house /
Residential
Re-entry
Center where
he was
supposed to
stay. He ended
up in a mental
hospital, from
which he was
out and now
the SDNY
prosecutors
sought to
detain him
pending a July
12 appearance
before the
District
(Chief)
Judge.
Magistrate
Judge Willis,
noting that he
would not be
able to get
his mental
medications in
the MDC jail
but saying
that while the
Bail Reform
Act should
consider that
but does,
ordered Arias
released
because his
mother and
brother would
ensure he
appear on July
12, or lose
the $25,000
bond.
Jump
cut to
September 5,
2023: the AUSA
requested a
sentence of
time served to
be followed by
six months in
a residential
reentry
center.
Sentencing is
set to
September 12
at 2:30 pm.
The
case is US v.
Arias,
13-cr-40
(Swain /
Willis)
