SDNY COURTROOM EXCLUSIVE, July 1 – On June 20 A. Gomez was presented in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrates Court. Inner City Press was there, the only media in the SDNY Mag Court.
The charge was felon in possession. But what really is the charge?
Shooting at police.
According to the complaint, Gomez was spotted on Vyse Avenue and 174th Street in The Bronx on June 16, trying to hide a gun, then shooting it at the police and bystanders. In the course of it he did not return to the halfway house on Creston Avenue.
In the Mag court before Magistrate Judge Gabriel W. Gorenstein, the AUSA said Gomez as arrested by NYPD on June 17 at 3:30 am, and was put into Federal custody at the MDC in Brooklyn at 7:15 pm on June 17. What happened in between? Trigger lock.
Then: Two defendants were brought into the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on June 28, 2023 and got into a fight, leaving one of them in a bloody splattered yellow jumpsuit. Sources tell Inner City Press they heard the screams from the holding cell, and gave the name of the other party: Franco, and the docket number.
