The formality of a trial obviously isn’t needed.
Guilty before proven innocent. Just like with the IRS or the military.
$167,000 a year to keep this kid in jail.
These stories are ridiculous. Talk about justice delayed is justice denied.
The story about the other guy, the one who killed himself, was even worse. He sat in jail for 3 years over the charge of stealing a backpack and punching a guy in the face, and then the charges were dismissed.
Now, it seems to me like he was a very troubled person, but I doubt that even if he’d been tried and convicted that he’d have been sentenced to three years on those charges.
Oh they mean New York City, the city that is run 100% by liberals?
The name brings up the question, legal, or illegally here?
His so called lawyer has an obligation to his client To request bond. The client is entitled to a bond hearing. If the lawyer wont act, this guy should ask for another lawyer, which he can ask for, but not necessarily get. The client should file a grievance with the bar for abandoning representation. Sounds like the lawyer is lazy.
So much for the right to a speedy trial.
The lawyer is incompetent. Is habeas corpus something that he didn’t learn about in law school?
But then again, this is caesar’s court and caesar’s rules. The right to a speedy trial exists, except when it doesn’t.
Yeah who cares!
Cuomo daddy and son
The shame is that his ‘pal’ has put off the trial for all this time!
Wow!
This is a violation of his constitutional rights.
It doesn’t matter what the law in NY says, the USA constitution (6th amendment) says you have a right to a speedy trial and this is the opposite.
This is a murder case.
Despite his denial, there is a witness who p[laces him at the scene of the crime. If he is part of a robbery and some is stabbed to death, he is just as guilty of murder as the one who held the knife.And, I don't think he has a good case for a separate trial.
What is going to happen is that after enough time witnesses die, forget, move away or otherwise disappear. Essentially, he is trying to get away with murder, and just may do it.
