Bronx Defendant Charged With Crack Sales  Released On $10000 Bond US Asks 70 Months

SDNY COURT, Sept 19 -  In the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on September 13, a series of detention or bond proceeding were held by Magistrate Stuart D. Aaron on defendants charges in the same indictment with crack sales on 194th Street in the Bronx. Inner City Press was there, the only media in the Mag Court.

In each case the Assistant US Attorney asked for detention, noting they were presumption cases. But the safety valve might be available, defense counsel countered.

The case is assigned to new SDNY District Judge Jennifer L. Rochon, before whom a proceeding has been scheduled for September 22. (There is no time set yet, the AUSA said, it is just a place holder).

 Magistrate Judge Aaron remarked that it shows difference between the Federal and New York State systems, with Adjourned in Contemplation of Dismissal dispositions for crack sales.

Jump cut all the way to April 27, 2026, when a guilty plea by the lead named defendant was moved to May 12.

Jump cut again to September 12 when defense counsel wrote in asking for a time served sentence on September 24, "cognizant that this request is a significant variance from the Guidelines."

On September 18 the US Attorney's Office wrote in asking for 70 months.

The overall case is US v. Boyd, et al., 22-cr-468 (Rochon).
