A lawyer for news organizations sent the judge a letter asking his reasons for sealing Mangione’s hearing.

He was ignored by the judge and rebuffed by his clerk, who said: “We don’t read emails or letters at night. We go home.” She then hung up on him.

⚠️ Luigi Mangione had a SEALED virtual hearing this morning in his state case with Judge Carro.

“The defendant was present, his attorneys were present, the people were present. At the request of the defense, that proceeding is sealed at the moment."

Case adjourned to June 16.

My colleagues @RosalindZAdams @haideechu at @THECITYNY spent the past several months tracking hundreds of ICE street arrests across the region through federal court records...🧵🧵

Inside 26 Federal Plaza:

Evidence from today’s trial shows what it’s like inside NYC’s most infamous ICE holding cells.

ICE tried to prevent the suing detainees from taking these pics — a judge forced their hand. 🧵

[Erik Uebelacker @Uebey]

New: ICE officials texted about the "gross" conditions of the packed 26 Federal Plaza holding rooms, according to trial evidence.

One man was held for 6 days with tuberculosis.

"And we have a guy with monkeypox🤦‍♀️" one ICE employee said in a text.

Seven weeks of trial + three years of post-trial litigation, including a SCOTUS run, ends in a wash @CourthouseNews https://t.co/5Qc4SHkBpU

@mikesisak @AP Congrats!!

[Courthouse News @CourthouseNews]

Arguing on the state’s behalf, attorney Ester Murdukhayeva echoed lower court findings: “Being a judge, holding that office, is not a civil right,” she said. @NinaPullano https://t.co/BcuSaLeZDS

New York gun ban in public parks survives appeal @NinaPullano https://t.co/uqOI8J5FE2

[Erik Uebelacker @Uebey]

Judge Carro's ruling was a limited win for Luigi Mangione, blocking certain backpack evidence as "improper" like:

-Cellphone
-Gun magazine
-Passport
-Wallet

But the pistol, silencer and red notebook will all be allowed to be shown to the jury.

A former Brooklyn judge was behind the defense table instead of up at the bench Wednesday after he was charged with scamming real estate investors out of millions of dollars. @Uebey https://t.co/TfQmEUXyEj

Lol, this is how ICE officer Joseph Harrington described this incident from last September in a new court filing:

"As the reporter (@Dean_Moses) was being escorted out of the elevator, an unknown journalist tripped on another individual and fell."

Do you have an elderly or disabled neighbor in NYC?

Be a good neighbor and let them know about the free air conditioner program.

If they earn $3473 or less a month, NYC will cover the costs of an A/C. Remember…last summer we had 95 degree weather. Look out for them

The corner on St. Mark’s known as the “gateway” to the E. Village will soon be home to a Sephora. In 2019, I covered the backlash to the building itself, which some said would commercialize a place known for counterculture. The most iconic part of NYC imo https://t.co/DRZfuFdS95

[The City Reporter @THECITYNY]

While a blueprint for fixing the gang database has been around for years, an analysis by THE CITY found that the NYPD stiff-armed or slow-walked nearly a dozen reforms recommended by the city’s ethics watchdog to address allegations of racial bias.

We thank the group of tenant organizations who have joined our push to pass a bill that would add new criminal penalties for landlords who are engaging in systemic harassment of rent-regulated tenants. Read more in @amnewyork by @mwparrott: https://t.co/ksZ9hWn3xD
