SDNY MAG COURT EXCLUSIVE, Feb 5 - In the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on November 29, a detention or bond proceeding was held by Magistrate Judge Stewart D. Aaron on a man arrested the previous day for saying he would bomb the US Attorney's Office at One St. Andrew's Plaza.
He made the threat inside the security screening area, dropping a FedEx box on the ground which had handwritten on it, "This is a bomb."
Inner City Press is on it, the only media in the Mag Court.
The defendant Taylor Cascio was appointed a lawyer under the Criminal Justice Act, or actually two. But they did not make an argument for release on bond, instead consenting to detention.
The Complaint says Cascio previously "conveyed a false bomb threat to a security guard at the Jacob K. Javits Federal Office Building on March 10, 2022."
In May 2023 Magistrate Judge Cott excluded time prospectively, and unsealed then resealed a document apparently about competency. From then until this writing in February 2024, nothing in the docket. Where is Taylor Cascio?
The case is US v. Cascio, 22-mj-9601 (Aaron)
