Of Duo Charged With Armed Carjacking in The Bronx on Camera 1 Gets 102 Months US Asks 108

SDNY COURTHOUSE, April 17 รข€“ Two men charged with an armed carjacking in The Bronx on July 15 were arraigned on September 5 before U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Chief Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn. Inner City Press was there, the only media in the SDNY Mag court. 

  The complaint is replete with photographs, of one defendant on a scooter, the shooting of a gun, the bloody victim on Beaumont Avenue in Belmont, the duo back in the Mill Brook Houses in the South Bronx. 

  Both seemed upbeat on September 5, one greeting two supporters in the gallery, the other talking with his Federal Defender. Then they were taken back to the MDC. 

On November 25, 2025 Hatwood pled guilty.

Jump cut to March 4, 2026 when Fasasi pled guilty to Count 2 and the lesser included offense of Count 3. Sentencing was set for July 7 at 11 am.

On March 28, for Hatwood's sentencing set for April 14, his lawyer wrote in and asked for a five year sentence.

The US Attorney's Office countered that 108 months  - nine years - are necessary.

In fact, he was sentenced to 102 months: six less than the US requested.

 The case is US v. Fasasi, et al., 1:25-cr-378 (Vyskocil / Netburn)
