Russell obtains a hung jury in an alien smuggling case

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

     During the week of October 15, 2008, Russell tried an alien smuggling case in the United States District Court for the Southern District.  The Director of Federal Defenders, Ruben Kahn, represented the co-defendant.  ( 08 CR-2713.)  The jury "hung" or could not reach a decision on any of the six counts regarding Russell’s client.  His client remains free on bail.  It is unclear whether the government will re-try the case.

     On July 11, 2008, my  client Petra T. obtained a sentence of only twenty four months in a multi kilo methamphetamine smuggling case in the United States District Court, Southern District of California (07mj1710.)  The government had initially sought a sentence of ten years.  I am unaware of any case in this court when the court has given so little time for a first methamphetamine smuggling case in light of the mandatory minimum sentence.  At sentencing, the client fell to her knees, and declared, "praise God and God bless you judge."
