EDNY Spox Marzulli Ousted Me Amid Huawei and Clase Trials So Lawsuit in SDNY Seeking Full Access



EDNY Spox Marzulli Ousted Me Amid Huawei and Clase Trials So Lawsuit in SDNY Seeking Full Access

OUTSIDE EDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 11 –  As I covered two trials in the Federal courthouse in Brooklyn on November 4, I was targeted by the DOJ prosecutors' spokesman John Marzulli and then the office of EDNY District Executive Eugene Corcoran and marched out of the courthouse by three federal Court Security Officers.

  Seven days later I am still out, having missed four day of the US v Huawei sanctions violation trial and three days of the US v Clase baseball pitch rigging trial. What gave the prosecutors' spokesman or spox the supposed right and separately motive to get me thrown out?

  Filed on November 11 in the Southern District of New York the lawsuit 26-cv-9896 seeking judical review and full access to EDNY - complaint on CourtListener here


It has been sent to Marzulli, and US Attorney Nocella, the EDNY District Executive's Office via Michael Loguercio, and the SDNY Civil Division Chief.

Marzulli pulled the levers in the closed world of EDNY to get the Press that reported it ousted and excluded. Judge Kovner docketed one of Inner City Press' emailed request to make a case against ICE public - but said in the future it must file at the EDNY Clerk's Office it can no longer reach thanks to Marzulli. We'll have more on this.

  What was my alleged crime?

  Using a cell phone in the courtroom of EDNY Judge Kiyo Matsumoto to live tweet the opening arguments in the baseball bribery trial of US v. Clase.  Notably, this supposed crime, with which a full day later I have not been charged in writing, was only alleged by the US Attorney's Office's Marzulli, ignoring those friendly to him using cell phones right next to him. 

  It reflects poorly on the US Attorney's Office and DOJ, to have personnel falsely and selectively accusing people and having them punished without due process. Is that what DOJ does not want the Press to report it is doing in the friendly (to it) confines of the EDNY? Is that why DOJ has at least 90 sealed cases / deals with cooperators that Inner City Press has had to appeal to the Second Circuit? Is this all just retaliation?
