SDNY COURTHOUSE, Dec 28 – Joel Cabrera has been facing a drugs and gun trial to start February 24, 2021.
On February 12, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Denise L. Cote held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.
The push for the trial was still on, now with the new SDNY order of double masking or an N95 mask, "Bandanas, gaiters and masks with valves are not permitted."
On December 28, the US Attorney's office wrote to Judge Cote of the already-delayed trial, "yesterday, December 27, a cooperating witness scheduled to testify at the January 4 trial was in close contact with a person who tested positive the same day for COVID-19... The CW is not currently vaccinated against COVID-19. In light of the foregoing and its potential effect on the upcoming trial, the Government respectfully requests the Court promptly convene a telephonic conference." Watch this site.
The case is USA v. Reynoso-Hiciano et al., 20-cr-388 (Cote)
